Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 209 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at LFKA Albertville General Pierre Delachenal Airfield. The TBM 930 aircraft accelerated down the runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 90 kt and covering 72% of the 496-meter runway. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 0 kt from 157 °.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Sainte-Helene-sur-Isere. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from 1,652 ft asl to 4,395 ft asl in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm. This rapid ascent was followed by a brief enroute level cruise, which lasted 3 minutes and covered 11 nm, as the aircraft flew over Aiton.
The enroute descent began overhead Les Marches, where the aircraft started its descent from 3,639 ft asl to 1,684 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nm. This descent was a precursor to the final approach to runway 36 at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport.
The final approach was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 358.0 ° at 4 nm and 913 ft agl. The landing was executed on runway 36, which had a length of 1,651 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 78 kt. The touchdown distance was good at 207 meters, but the touchdown speed of 71 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate was good at -152 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13 °C and a wind speed of 0 kt from 270 °. The total landing distance was 1,085 meters, which was 66% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 25 nm, and the flight duration was 11 minutes. The aircraft used 39 kg of fuel during the flight.
The TBM 930 aircraft successfully landed at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, achieving a score of 96.7%. The final approach to runway 36 was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 358.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 913 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 71 kt, which was slightly above the target speed. However, the touchdown distance of 207 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold height was also reported as good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.
The threshold speed was noted to be well above the target, reaching 78 kt. This may have been due to the aircraft's speed being maintained during the final approach, rather than a specific issue with the landing configuration. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.0 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 0 kt from 270°. This resulted in a crosswind and headwind of 0 kt, making the landing conditions ideal. The total landing distance of 1,085 meters was 66% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.
The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling during the final approach and landing phases.
