Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 125 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 151 kt against a rotation target of 125 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 125 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Keep easing the back pressure to let the aircraft settle from 18 ft instead of holding it level.
What happened: The sink was arrested at 18 ft and held there instead of being let down.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: continuous descent through the normal flare band to touchdown
See Arrival Landing
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 5,470 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,261 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question took place at Eppley Airfield, where it departed from runway 18 after a taxiing period of 7 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft was able to achieve a liftoff speed of 151 knots and used 31% of the runway for its takeoff. The weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 68°F and wind speeds of 8 knots from 159°.
Following departure, the aircraft began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile south-east of Carter Lake, with the climb starting at an altitude of 2,025 feet above sea level (asl) and ending at 25,589 ft asl. This notable increase in altitude of 23,564 ft took place over a period of 11 minutes and covered a distance of 55 nautical miles.
As the flight continued, the enroute level cruise began about 6 miles south-east of Anita, lasting for 22 minutes and covering 195 nautical miles. This segment of the flight represented a period of steady and stable flight conditions.
Later, the aircraft initiated its enroute descent, starting 2 miles north of the Clinton Municipal Airport. The descent took place from an altitude of 25,573 ft asl to 1,949 ft asl, resulting in a decrease of 23,624 ft over the course of 15 minutes and covering a distance of 80 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15 at the Aurora Municipal Airport was made from the north-west, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 147.0° and having to cover a distance of 4 nautical miles. At an altitude of 1,226 feet above ground level (agl), the aircraft began its descent to the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 15, using 62% of the runway's length of 5,470 ft and achieving a touchdown speed of 104 kt. This was within the target speed range, and the touchdown distance of 1,233 ft was also regarded as good. Furthermore, the touchdown rate of -368 fpm was deemed firm.
It is worth noting that there was a slight deviation from the centreline of the runway during touchdown and rollout, with the aircraft misaligned by 41 ft during touchdown and 33 ft during rollout. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 66°F and wind speeds of 5 knots from 210°.
The flight came to an end with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area, a procedure that took just 1 minute and covered a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was recorded at 338 nautical miles, with the flight lasting 57 minutes and using no fuel during that time.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at KARR Aurora Municipal Airport, achieving a final approach accuracy of 90%. The aircraft was approaching runway 15 from the northwest at a heading of 147.0°, maintaining a safe altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,226 feet above ground level.
As the aircraft landed, the threshold height was deemed satisfactory, but the threshold speed came in slightly below the target speed at 110 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 1,233 feet was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 104 knots was also considered optimal.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's descent rate was firm, at -368 feet per minute. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position deviated by 41 feet from the centerline, indicating a slight misalignment. Weather conditions at the time of landing were mild, with a temperature of 66°F and a moderate crosswind of 5 knots from the north-northwest and a headwind of 2 knots.
The overall landing distance of 3,379 feet accounted for approximately 62% of the runway length, which was considered manageable for the aircraft. Furthermore, despite the initial misaligned touchdown, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off by 33 feet, although not as severe as the initial deviation.
Given the circumstances of the landing, Aircraft C750 demonstrated a satisfactory landing proficiency, with the majority of performance metrics aligning closely with optimal values. However, some minor deviations in alignment and speed suggest opportunities for improvement in future training sessions.
