Flight Score
Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 117 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 40 kt fast at 157 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 117 kt in the climb
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 85 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 112 kt against a target of 85 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 85 kt at the threshold.
Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

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 seven 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,629 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,629 m of the 2,621 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 576 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing runway 23 at Morristown Regional Airport, the Vision Jet began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 100 kt in a distance of 696 m, which represented 40% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off with a headwind component of 4 kt, which contributed to a relatively smooth departure.
As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute climb phase, it began to ascend from 2,304 ft above sea level to 3,523 ft, a gain of 1,218 ft in just 1 minute. This rapid climb was achieved while covering a distance of 3 nm. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 3,523 ft for 5 minutes as it covered a distance of 23 nm. The enroute descent phase commenced 2 miles south east of Knoxville Downtown Island Airport, where the aircraft descended from 3,498 ft to 2,229 ft, a decrease of 1,269 ft in 2 minutes, while covering 6 nm. The final approach to runway 23L at McGhee Tyson Airport was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,283 ft above ground level.
The Vision Jet landed on runway 23L, touching down 153 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 97 kt, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed. The touchdown rate was, however, excellent at -77 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 6.7 m. The total landing distance was 1,541 m, representing 59% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 37 nm, which was completed in 12 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 46 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport from the north east was executed with good quality, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,283 ft above ground level. The approach was conducted in a 2,627 m runway environment, with a suitable threshold height. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 112 kt, indicating a potential for a longer landing roll.
The aircraft touched down 153 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 97 kt, which was fast. The touchdown rate of -77 fpm was excellent, demonstrating good control and precision. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.7 m from the centreline, the rollout alignment was very good, indicating a high level of skill and control during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 °C and a headwind of 4 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,541 m was 59% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was scored 92.0%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control. The pilot demonstrated good skills in managing the aircraft during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases, despite some minor deviations from optimal performance.
