Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 7.5°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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.

3 landings
The flight is kept as it was recorded: it ends when the engine is shut down, so a landing with the rotors turning is a stop along the way, not a new flight.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set, off the centreline and wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,354 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,438 ft 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 03 at L41 Marble Canyon. The aircraft, a Black Square B36TP Bonanza Professional with the registration N6060E, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 92 kt. The takeoff distance was 506 ft, which accounted for 21% of the runway length.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 58 °F and winds of 5 kt at 80 °. The crosswind was 3 kt, while the headwind was 4 kt. The enroute climb started 1 mile north east of L41 Marble Canyon, where the aircraft climbed from 4,501 ft asl to 6,623 ft asl, an increase of 2,122 ft in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nm.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 5 miles south west of 22UT Larkspur Airstrip Big Water. This cruise lasted for 6 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 22 nm. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 6,920 ft asl to 8,468 ft asl, an increase of 1,548 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nm. The climb started 15 miles east of UT30 Deer Springs Ranch Airport Kanab.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered another level cruise, starting 13 miles east of UT30 Deer Springs Ranch Airport Kanab. This cruise lasted for 5 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 18 nm. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile north west of Tropic, where it descended from 9,050 ft asl to 8,530 ft asl, a decrease of 520 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile north east of KBCE Bryce Canyon Airport. This cruise lasted for 3 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nm. The final approach to runway 03 at KBCE Bryce Canyon Airport was made from the south west, heading 45.0 ° at 1 nm and 348 ft agl.
The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on runway 03 at a speed of 74 kt. The touchdown distance was good at 1,432 ft, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -76 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those encountered during the departure, with a temperature of 58 °F and winds of 5 kt at 80 °.
The total flight distance was 62 nm, and the flight duration was 22 minutes. The aircraft used 89 lbs of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, a Black Square B36TP Bonanza Professional with the registration N6060E, successfully landed at KBCE Bryce Canyon Airport on runway 03. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, with a heading of 45.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 348 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot executed a precise landing, with a good threshold height and a slightly below-target threshold speed of 87 knots. This indicates a controlled descent and a smooth approach. The touchdown distance of 1,432 feet was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and altitude during the landing phase.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 74 knots, which is a good indication of a controlled and gentle touchdown. The touchdown rate of -76 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, signifying a smooth and stable landing. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 58°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from 80°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions contributed to a relatively easy and stable landing, allowing the pilot to execute a precise and controlled touchdown. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft touching down safely and smoothly on the runway.
