Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks, where the approach path is 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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,655 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,176 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight departed from Madison County Executive Airport-Tom Sharp Jr Field, where the aircraft taxied from the parking area to the runway in 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. Departing from runway 36, the takeoff distance was 2,755 feet, accounting for 42% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 146 knots, with local weather conditions consisting of a temperature of 61°F and a 2-knot headwind from 270°.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it began its ascent 1 mile northeast of Meridianville, Alabama, reaching a height of 24,191 feet above sea level in 9 minutes, covering 52 nautical miles. The climb from 2,011 feet to 24,191 feet was a significant increase of 22,180 feet. The aircraft then entered a level cruise 3 miles southeast of Courtland, Alabama, lasting 34 minutes and covering 284 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft began its descent overhead Amite, Louisiana, decreasing its altitude from 24,999 feet to 2,395 feet in 14 minutes, covering 82 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a brief level cruise 8 miles east of Henderson, Louisiana, lasting 6 minutes and covering 22 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at Lafayette Regional Airport was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 219.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,235 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly below target at 111 knots, and the touchdown distance was 1,179 feet, accounting for 35% of the runway. The touchdown speed was 104 knots, and the touchdown rate was -287 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 39 feet from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 42 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 2,686 feet. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 447 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 73 minutes and no fuel consumption.
The aircraft, C750, successfully executed a final approach to runway 22L at KLFT Lafayette Regional Airport from the north east, aligning with the runway heading of 219.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,235 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 111 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 1,179 feet, and a touchdown speed of 104 knots, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -287 feet per minute was fair, suggesting a slight impact on the aircraft's deceleration. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 39 feet from the centreline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout issues. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 59°F and a light wind of 2 knots at 270°, did not pose significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 2,686 feet, which accounted for 35% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 42 feet from the centreline, indicating a deviation from the optimal path. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance of C750 was satisfactory, earning a score of 94.0%.
