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.

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 3,511 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the full 3,511 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,070 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Vision Jet from KLAM Los Alamos to NM24 Eastside was overall smooth and efficient. Taxiing from the parking to the runway was quick, taking only 8 minutes and covering less than 1 nm. The departure from runway 09 at KLAM Los Alamos involved a takeoff distance of 2,616 ft, with a liftoff speed of 98 kn. The local weather at the time of departure included a temperature of 62 °F and a 20 kn wind at 180 °, resulting in a crosswind of 19 kn and a headwind of 4 kn.
During the enroute climb, the aircraft ascended from 7,948 ft to 20,250 ft in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 24 nm. The enroute level cruise segment began 10 miles southwest of El Rito and lasted 2 minutes, covering 11 nm. The subsequent enroute descent saw a decrease in altitude from 20,227 ft to 12,103 ft in 7 minutes, covering 29 nm. Another brief level cruise segment took place 2 miles west of NM24 Eastside Chama for 2 minutes, covering 5 nm.
The landing on runway 20 at NM24 Eastside involved a runway length of 3,511 ft, a height at threshold of 72 ft agl, and a speed at threshold of 109 kn. The touchdown occurred 2,073 ft from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 86 kn and a VSI of -143 ft/m. The local weather at the time of landing included a temperature of 47 °F and a 17 kn wind at 206 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 17 kn. The total landing distance was 3,227 ft, which accounted for 92% of the runway.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 75 nm, lasting 68 minutes and consuming 195 lbs of fuel. The performance of the aircraft throughout the various segments of the flight demonstrated its capabilities and efficiency.
