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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,204 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 579 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 11 at CYBG CFB Bagotville / Saguenay-Bagotville Airport, a Canadian airport located in Quebec. The takeoff distance was 874 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 136 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -15 °C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 310 °. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead CYBG CFB Bagotville / Saguenay-Bagotville Airport. The climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 103 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,526 feet above sea level to 28,577 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,051 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 13 miles north of CSC5 Lac Etchemin Airport Lac Etchemin, another Canadian airport located in Quebec. This phase of the flight lasted for 60 minutes and covered a distance of 134 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles south east of Bethel, a city located in the state of Maine, United States. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 84 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 29,500 feet above sea level to 965 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,536 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 7 miles south east of New Castle, a city located in the state of New Hampshire, United States. This phase of the flight lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 34 at KPSM Portsmouth International at Pease Airport, a US airport located in New Hampshire. The approach was made from the south east, with a heading of 329.0 ° and at an altitude of 913 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 152 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 98 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was also good at -170 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6 °C and a wind speed of 21 knots from a direction of 230 °. The crosswind component was 20 knots, while the tailwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,010 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 337 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 114 minutes. The aircraft used 2,172 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at KPSM Portsmouth International at Pease Airport, achieving a score of 95.3%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 329.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 913 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 34, which has a length of 3,204 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 112 knots. The touchdown point was located 152 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. However, the touchdown speed of 98 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -170 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 21 knots from a direction of 230°. This resulted in a crosswind component of 20 knots and a tailwind component of 3 knots. Despite these challenging conditions, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft, maintaining perfect runway touchdown alignment.
The total landing distance was 1,010 meters, which accounted for approximately 32% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating a high degree of control and precision on the part of the pilot. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency in managing the aircraft in challenging weather conditions.
