Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,996 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,262 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 27 at KARR Aurora Municipal Airport in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 27, the aircraft used 2,957 ft of runway, representing 46 % of the available length, and lifted off at 150 kt. Ambient conditions were 61 °F with a 2-kt wind from 270°, providing a 2-kt headwind and no crosswind.
Climb commenced overhead KARR, rising from 1,087 ft asl to 24,909 ft asl, an altitude gain of 23,823 ft achieved in 11 minutes while covering 62 nm.
Level cruise began 4 nm northwest of 3LL2 Hammond-Henry Hospital Heliport and continued for 42 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 342 nm.
Descent started 2 nm northwest of Baxter Springs, Kansas, descending from 24,833 ft asl to 1,901 ft asl, a loss of 22,932 ft in 14 minutes and covering 76 nm.
The final approach to runway 18L at KTUL Tulsa International Airport was executed from the north on a heading of 183.0°, beginning 4 nm out at 1,261 ft agl. The aircraft descended from 1,305 ft agl to 97 ft agl in 110 seconds and met the stabilisation gate criteria.
Landing on runway 18L was completed with a threshold speed of 105 kt, a touchdown speed of 98 kt, and a touchdown distance of 1,260 ft. The touchdown rate was firm at minus 363 fpm, and the touchdown point was 29 ft off the centreline. Local weather reported 59 °F with a 2-kt wind from 270°, giving a 2-kt crosswind and no headwind. Total landing distance measured 2,567 ft, equivalent to 26 % of the runway length.
Runway rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 44 ft as the aircraft decelerated after touchdown.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 490 nm, lasted 73 minutes, and consumed 0 lb of fuel.
The Cessna 750 Citation X entered the final approach to runway 18L at KTUL Tulsa International Airport from the north on a heading of 183.0° at 4 nm and 1,261 ft agl. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate, being more than 20 kt above VREF, and the aircraft descended from 1,305 ft agl to 97 ft agl in 110 seconds, with scoring based on the stabilisation gates.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 105 kt.
Touchdown occurred 1,260 ft down the runway, a distance described as good, with a touchdown speed of 98 kt also rated good. The touchdown rate was firm at minus 363 fpm and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 29 ft from the centreline. Total landing distance was 2,567 ft, representing 26 % of the 9,996-ft runway. Local weather was 59 °F with wind 2 kt from 270°, a 2-kt crosswind and no headwind.
Rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 44 ft from the centreline.
Stabilising the approach speed to remain within VREF limits will reduce the instability noted at the 1,000-ft gate. Improving centreline tracking during touchdown and rollout will minimize the 29-ft and 44-ft deviations observed.
