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 2,392 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,392 m of the 3,758 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 509 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 08 at VTSS Hat Yai International Airport. The takeoff distance was 515 meters, which accounted for 17% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 119 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at a direction of 90 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of VTSS Hat Yai International Airport, and climbed from an altitude of 1,073 feet above sea level to 27,082 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,009 feet, in 8 minutes and covering a distance of 41 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles south east of Jitra, Malaysia, and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 12 miles west of Sungai Petani, Malaysia, and climbed from 27,101 feet above sea level to 30,395 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,294 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 15 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 3 miles south west of Batu Feringgi, Malaysia, and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 31 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 27 miles south west of WMKP Penang International Airport, and descended from 31,020 feet above sea level to 1,302 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,718 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 98 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23 at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport was made from the north east, heading 225.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,273 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 23 at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport was successful, with the touchdown point being 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 87 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -98 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at a direction of 10 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,299 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.5 meters from the centreline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 231 nautical miles, taking a total of 54 minutes, and the aircraft used 541 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport, achieving a score of 94.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 225.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 23, which has a length of 3,758 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a speed of 87 knots. This touchdown speed was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -98 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.2 meters. This minor deviation may have been due to the aircraft's alignment during the approach or the wind conditions.
The local weather at the time of landing was characterized by a temperature of 25°C and wind speeds of 8 knots at 10°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. These wind conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position.
The total landing distance of 2,299 meters was 61% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 9.5 meters. This minor deviation may have been due to the aircraft's alignment during the rollout or the wind conditions.
Overall, the Cessna CJ4 Citation's landing at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport was successful, with a score of 94.0%. While there were minor deviations in the runway touchdown position and rollout alignment, the aircraft's touchdown speed and rate were excellent, and the landing distance was relatively short.
