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 for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply.

Side view — the last 1,215 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,215 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 277 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 27 at KUYF Madison County Airport. The aircraft, an SR22, required a takeoff distance of 85 meters, which was 7% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 69 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 219 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 27 at KUYF Madison County Airport. The entry was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 14 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also completed in less than 1 nautical mile, but in 19 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was a 45-degree angle to the runway, with a distance of 1 nautical mile. The downwind leg itself was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 74 seconds.
The final approach to runway 27 at KUYF Madison County Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 267.0 degrees at an altitude of 0 nautical miles and 116 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 75 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 275 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 62 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect at 24 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance was 416 meters, which was 34% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight used 2 kilograms of fuel.
The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at KUYF Madison County Airport, achieving a high score of 99.6%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 267.0° at an altitude of 116 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft touched down on runway 27, which has a length of 1,215 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 75 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 275 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 62 knots was also within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of 24 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25°C and winds of 11 knots from 219°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 416 meters was 34% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop in a relatively short distance, indicating good control and braking performance. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling characteristics.
