Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 125 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 143 kt, 18 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 125 kt at liftoff

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,000 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,118 ft 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 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 23 at KPVD Theodore Francis Green State Airport, with a takeoff distance of 3,229 feet, which was 45% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 143 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 17 knots at 129°. The crosswind was 17 knots, while the headwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile west of Warwick, Rhode Island, and reached an altitude of 36,955 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,908 feet in 12 minutes, covering 125 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 25 miles south of Southport, Maine, and lasted for 59 minutes, covering 2,371 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 27 miles southwest of Kilronan, Connaught, Ireland, and descended from 37,010 feet to 9,601 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,409 feet in 7 minutes, covering 50 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile south of Crusheen, Munster, Ireland, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. However, this was followed by another descent, starting 1 mile south of Crusheen, and descended from 9,601 feet to 3,005 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,596 feet in 3 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles southwest of Scarriff, Munster, Ireland, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. Another descent started 1 mile east of Kilkishen, Munster, Ireland, and descended from 2,945 feet to 2,073 feet above sea level, a decrease of 872 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles.
The final level cruise started 1 mile north of Sixmilebridge, Munster, Ireland, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 24 at EINN Shannon Airport from the northeast, heading 232.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,263 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 24 at EINN Shannon Airport was successful, with a runway length of 10,000 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 121 knots. However, the touchdown point was 728 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 108 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -157 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 290°. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 4,310 feet, which was 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft took 4 minutes to taxi to the parking from the runway, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,573 nautical miles, taking 98 minutes, and used 9,746 pounds of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at EINN Shannon Airport, achieving a score of 97.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 232.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 24, which has a length of 10,000 feet.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 121 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing. However, the touchdown speed of 108 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a slightly longer landing distance.
The touchdown point was 728 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. The touchdown rate of -157 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly and smoothly after touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach to the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 290°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were well within the aircraft's operating limits, and the pilot was able to manage the aircraft effectively despite the presence of some wind.
The total landing distance was 4,310 feet, which is 43% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to slow down the aircraft quickly and smoothly after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and judgment in managing the aircraft during the approach and landing phases. The score of 97.6% reflects the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot during this landing.
