Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 21 ft off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 37 ft, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 47 ft.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and 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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 46 kt FAST on the reference speed of 122 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,600 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 953 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from KHPN Westchester County Airport, the aircraft initiated its takeoff roll on runway 34, covering 2,817 feet, or 43% of the runway, before lifting off at a speed of 140 knots. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 62°F and a gentle headwind of 1 knot, with a crosswind of 2 knots. The aircraft's taxiing time from the parking area to the runway was a brief 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft climbed away from KHPN, it began its enroute climb 1 mile northwest of the airport, reaching an altitude of 30,024 feet above sea level in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 36 nautical miles. The climb was a steep one, with an increase of 28,751 feet in altitude. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a 51-minute cruise phase, covering 440 nautical miles. This was followed by a descent phase, which began 3 miles southwest of Saint Paul, Virginia, and lasted 17 minutes, covering 96 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 29,992 feet to 2,194 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,798 feet.
The final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 225.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,236 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 967 feet, or 29% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 102 knots, and the touchdown rate was -282 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 28 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 2,458 feet. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile in less than 1 minute. The total flight distance was 579 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 83 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 270 pounds.
The aircraft, C750, successfully executed a final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport from the north east, aligning with the heading of 225.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,236 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height allowing for a controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 108 knots, indicating a minor deviation from the optimal approach speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 967 feet, with a touchdown speed of 102 knots that was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -282 feet per minute was fair, suggesting a moderate deceleration upon contact with the runway. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centreline, indicating a minor deviation from the intended path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 59°F and a light headwind of 1 knot, contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 2,458 feet was 29% of the runway length, indicating a controlled rollout. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 28 feet from the centreline, suggesting a minor deviation from the intended path during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing performance of C750 scored 95.4%, reflecting a high level of proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing on runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport.
