Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 8.7 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline and wings not level.

Plan view — the full 1,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 84 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 23 at the Albertville General Pierre Delachenal Airfield, also known as LFKA. The aircraft, an SF50, took off after a distance of 591 meters, which was 85% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 94 knots, and the local temperature was 13 degrees Celsius.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Sainte-Helene-sur-Isere, a town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. The climb was steep, with the aircraft rising from 2,050 feet above sea level to 8,354 feet in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. This impressive climb was an increase of 6,303 feet.
After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent overhead Saint-Jeoire-Prieure, another town in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region. The descent was equally impressive, with the aircraft dropping from 8,326 feet to 1,526 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. This decrease of 6,800 feet was a testament to the aircraft's ability to quickly adjust its altitude.
The final approach to runway 18 at the Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, also known as LFLB, was made from the north, heading 164.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 732 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which was 1,651 meters long. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 95 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 83 meters, but the touchdown speed was fast at 93 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -158 feet per minute, indicating a smooth landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline. The local temperature was 14 degrees Celsius.
The total landing distance was 1,939 meters, which was 117% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 101.5 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 28 nautical miles, and the flight took 12 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 53 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was a successful one, with the aircraft performing well in terms of climb, descent, and landing.
The aircraft in question, identified as SF50, successfully landed at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 164.0° at 2 nautical miles and 732 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 18, which has a length of 1,651 meters.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 95 knots. This may indicate a slight deviation from the optimal approach speed, which could be a result of various factors such as wind conditions or pilot technique. The touchdown distance of 83 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.
However, the touchdown speed of 93 knots was reported as fast, which may indicate that the aircraft was not fully arrested upon touchdown. This could be a result of the pilot not fully applying the brakes or not using the reverse thrust, if applicable. The touchdown rate of -158 feet per minute (fpm) was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly and safely after touchdown.
One notable issue with the landing was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline. This may indicate that the pilot was not fully aligned with the runway or that there was a slight deviation during the approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as a temperature of 14°C, which may have played a role in the aircraft's performance.
The total landing distance of 1,939 meters was reported as 117% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop safely within the available runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 101.5 meters from the centerline, which may indicate that the pilot was not fully able to control the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase. This could be a result of various factors such as wind conditions, pilot technique, or aircraft performance.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but with some notable areas for improvement. The pilot and aircraft performance will need to be reviewed to determine the root causes of the deviations and to implement corrective actions to improve future landings.
