Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 11 m.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 11 m, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
At the 300 ft gate: off the centreline and wings not level.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,353 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 398 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 06L at LTFJ Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport. The aircraft, a C400 Corvalis, took off with a takeoff distance of 451 meters, which is 15% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 78 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead LTFJ Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport Pendik. The climb began at an altitude of 1,013 feet above sea level and increased to 2,923 feet above sea level, a total increase of 1,911 feet in just 1 minute. The aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles during this climb. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which lasted for 45 minutes and covered a distance of 133 nautical miles. This cruise phase took place 1 mile south of LTFJ Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport Pendik.
The enroute descent started 5 miles northeast of Canakkale, where the aircraft descended from 2,764 feet above sea level to 382 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,381 feet in just 5 minutes. The descent covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 04 at LTBH Çanakkale Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 41.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 356 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 04 at LTBH Çanakkale Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 393 meters. The touchdown speed was 60 knots, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -44 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. At the time of landing, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 10 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,236 meters, which is 53% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 145 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 55 minutes. The aircraft used 36 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, a Cessna 400 Corvalis, successfully landed at Çanakkale Airport's runway 04 with a score of 94.3%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 41.0° at 1 nautical mile and 356 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 77 knots, which is considered good. The touchdown distance of 393 meters was also within acceptable limits. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 60 knots was satisfactory, and the touchdown rate of -44 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots at 10°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots, providing a relatively stable environment for the landing.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 8.2 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may be attributed to the pilot's efforts to maintain control and stability during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within 53% of the runway's length, totaling 1,236 meters. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the execution of the landing, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory.
