Improve the takeoff
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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five 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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,664 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 619 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 28 at Albany International Airport, where the aircraft, a PC-12, accelerated down the 478-meter runway, covering 26% of its length. The takeoff speed was reached at 94 knots, and the aircraft lifted off the ground.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and a 1-knot headwind from a direction of 269°. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile north of Colonie, New York, where the aircraft climbed from 1,350 feet above sea level to 1,378 feet, an increase of 27 feet, in less than 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The enroute level cruise began 1 mile northwest of Colonie and lasted for 4 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then started another climb, this time from overhead McKownville, New York, where it climbed from 2,017 feet to 16,577 feet, an increase of 14,561 feet, in 15 minutes and covering 43 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent 3 miles south of Phoenicia, New York, where it descended from 16,726 feet to 2,121 feet, a decrease of 14,605 feet, in 18 minutes and covering 58 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 2 miles northwest of Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, and lasted for 79 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19 at Teterboro Airport was made from the north, heading 183.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,272 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the 1,664-meter runway, with the threshold height slightly above target and the threshold speed good at 82 knots.
The touchdown point was 181 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 70 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -123 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 15°C temperature and a 1-knot crosswind from a direction of 269°.
The total landing distance was 802 meters, covering 48% of the runway. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 21 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 124 nautical miles, taking 51 minutes, and the aircraft used 186 kilograms of fuel.
The PC-12 aircraft successfully landed at KTEB Teterboro Airport, achieving a high score of 97.3%. The final approach to runway 19 was conducted from the north, with the aircraft heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being slightly above the target. However, the threshold speed was good, reaching 82 knots. The touchdown point was 181 meters beyond the touchdown zone, but the touchdown speed of 70 knots was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was also smooth, with a descent rate of -123 feet per minute (fpm).
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The runway length at KTEB Teterboro Airport is 1,664 meters, which provided a sufficient margin for the aircraft to land safely.
The total landing distance of 802 meters was 48% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight path along the runway. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the aircraft meeting all the required performance criteria.
