Flight Score
Departure
Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 64 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.
What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
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 for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: centreline 4.9° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,866 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 276 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna CT206G taxied to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport and commenced the departure roll. The aircraft achieved a takeoff distance of 297 m, representing 16 % of the runway, and rotated at 52 kt. Ambient temperature was 15 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 269°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind.
After departure the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern for runway 23. The entry leg covered less than 1 nm in 26 seconds, followed by a left-hand cross-wind leg of less than 1 nm completed in 18 seconds. The downwind turn spanned 1 nm with a 59.7° angle to the runway, and the downwind leg extended 2 nm in 59 seconds. The base turn covered 1 nm at a 59.8° angle, while the base leg was less than 1 nm in 33 seconds. The final turn was less than 1 nm and lasted 30 seconds, positioning the aircraft for the final approach.
During the final approach the aircraft descended from 319 ft AGL to 26 ft AGL in 37 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates.
The Cessna touched down on runway 23, whose length is 1,866 m. Threshold speed was recorded at 68 kt. Touchdown occurred 276 m from the threshold at a speed of 56 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 34 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was perfect. Local weather remained temperature 15 °C, wind 2 kt at 270°, cross-wind 1 kt, head-wind 2 kt. The total landing distance measured 421 m, equivalent to 23 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.
Total flight distance was 7nm taking 5 and used 2 kg of fuel.
