Improve the takeoff
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,981 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 685 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 18 at EDDF Frankfurt Airport in eight minutes, covering approximately one nautical mile.
During the departure roll on runway 18, the take-off run measured 753 m, representing 19 % of the runway length, and the aircraft lifted off at 95 kt; ambient temperature was 14 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 210°, giving a 1 kt headwind and a 1 kt cross-wind component.
The first en-route climb began two miles west of Moerfelden-Walldorf, where altitude increased from 1,315 ft asl to 3,878 ft asl-a gain of 2,562 ft-over two minutes while covering five nautical miles.
A short level cruise followed two miles south-west of Erzhausen, lasting two minutes and spanning three nautical miles.
The next climb segment started one mile south-east of Erzhausen; altitude rose from 3,932 ft asl to 23,011 ft asl, an increase of 19,078 ft, in 27 minutes and over a distance of 90 nm.
Subsequent level cruise commenced one mile north of Fremdingen, lasting three minutes and covering 15 nm.
Descent phase one originated two miles east of Huisheim, with altitude decreasing from 22,907 ft asl to 19,693 ft asl-a loss of 3,214 ft-in five minutes while traversing 24 nm.
A further level cruise began two miles north-west of Gachenbach, lasting three minutes and extending 14 nm.
The second descent started overhead Vierkirchen, where the aircraft dropped from 19,472 ft asl to 2,765 ft asl, a reduction of 16,707 ft, in 20 minutes and over 67 nm.
Final approach to runway 26R at EDDM Munich Airport was conducted from the east on a heading of 263.0° at four nautical miles and 1,288 ft agl; the approach continued with a descent from 1,342 ft agl to 80 ft agl in 162 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates criteria.
Landing on runway 26R, which is 3,981 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 89 kt; touchdown occurred 249 m beyond the touchdown zone at 72 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 96 fpm and perfect alignment, while local conditions were 19 °C temperature and a 3 kt headwind from 263°.
Runway rollout was aligned perfectly, and the total landing distance recorded was 1,123 m, representing 28 % of the runway length.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in three minutes, covering less than one nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered 230 nm, lasted 76 minutes, and consumed 154 kg of fuel.
The aircraft TBM 850 entered the final approach to runway 26R at EDDM Munich Airport from the east on a heading of 263.0° at 4 nm and 1,288 ft agl. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate: more than 5 kt below VREF, and the descent proceeded from 1,342 ft agl to 80 ft agl in 162 seconds. Local weather was 19 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 263°, giving a head-wind component of 3 kt and no cross-wind.
At the threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was recorded as 89 kt. The aircraft crossed the threshold and the flare produced a touchdown point 249 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 72 kt that was judged good. The touchdown rate was excellent at minus 96 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft aligned on the centreline, the speed and rate matching the good assessments noted in the previous phase. The touchdown point remained 249 m beyond the touchdown zone and the speed stayed at 72 kt, confirming the earlier good rating.
Rollout used a total landing distance of 1,123 m, representing 28 % of the 3,981 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect throughout the deceleration phase.
To improve the overall score, the pilot should ensure a stabilised approach by maintaining at least VREF + 5 kt at the 1,000 ft gate, which will address the unstable-approach rating. Consistent speed control in the final 1,000 ft will also help keep the touchdown point within the intended zone and sustain the strong overall performance reflected by the 77.6 % score.
