Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 8.3 m.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 8.3 m, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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 1,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 63 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 04 at LFLP Annecy Haute-Savoie Mont Blanc Airport. The Kodiak 100 aircraft accelerated down the runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 96 kt. The takeoff distance was 424 m, which accounted for 38% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 °C and a wind speed of 11 kt from a direction of 356 °.
As the aircraft climbed away from Annecy, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Metz-Tessy. The aircraft ascended from an altitude of 2,122 ft asl to 5,266 ft asl, a vertical increase of 3,143 ft, in just 3 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 6 nm. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began overhead Marcellaz-Albanais and lasted for 2 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 4 nm.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile south west of Rumilly. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 5,692 ft asl to 1,575 ft asl, a vertical decrease of 4,118 ft, in 4 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 10 nm. The final approach to runway 18 at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 190.0 ° at an altitude of 802 ft agl and a distance of 2 nm from the runway threshold.
The landing on runway 18 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 58 kt and a distance of 59 m. The touchdown rate was good at -184 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 °C and a wind speed of 13 kt from a direction of 10 °. The crosswind component was 3 kt, while the tailwind component was 12 kt.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 2 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 24 nm, and the flight duration was 13 minutes. The aircraft used 38 kg of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, achieving a score of 90.7%. The final approach to runway 18 was initiated from the north, with a heading of 190.0° at an altitude of 802 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, eventually touching down on the runway with a distance of 59 meters, which was considered good.
The touchdown speed of 58 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -184 feet per minute was deemed good. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.1 meters, which may require some adjustments in the approach procedure.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 10°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 12 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's performance during the landing. Despite these conditions, the pilot managed to maintain control and execute a smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,281 meters was 78% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.5 meters, which may indicate some issues with the aircraft's directional control during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases. However, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a more accurate alignment with the runway centreline during the rollout phase.
