Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 0.7°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to track the centreline.
What happened: The aircraft drifted off the centreline during the landing roll.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings aligned with the runway centreline

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 seven checks, where the approach path is 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 8,987 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,053 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Orlando International Airport (KMCO), the Vision Jet began its taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 9 minutes to cover a distance of 2 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 36R, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 2,378 feet, or 20% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 99 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 79°F, with a 5-knot wind blowing from a direction of 70°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 2-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from KMCO, it began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile northwest of the airport, ascending from an initial altitude of 1,158 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 30,011 feet, a vertical gain of 28,853 feet, in 23 minutes and covering a distance of 79 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase commenced 2 miles northeast of Hastings, Florida, and lasted for 40 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 198 nautical miles. Subsequently, the enroute descent phase began 6 miles east of Jeffersonville, Georgia, where the aircraft descended from 29,583 feet to 2,276 feet, a decrease of 27,306 feet, in 22 minutes and covering 86 nautical miles.
Upon approaching Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL), the Vision Jet initiated its final approach to runway 26R from the east, aligning itself with a heading of 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed safely on the runway, utilizing 1,048 feet of the 8,987-foot-long runway, or 29% of its length, and achieving a touchdown speed of 72 knots and a touchdown rate of -150 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 18 feet. Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 4 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 372 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 100 minutes and a fuel consumption of 645 pounds.
The Vision Jet touched down on runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 82 kt was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and airspeed. As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown speed of 72 kt and rate of -150 fpm were both within the desired parameters, further indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
The touchdown distance of 1,048 ft was within the acceptable range, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 18 ft from the centreline. However, this deviation was minor and did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 73 °F and winds of 4 kt at 160 °, were relatively calm, which likely contributed to the smoothness of the landing.
The total landing distance of 2,645 ft, which accounted for 29% of the runway length, was within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to bring the aircraft to a stop in a straight line. Overall, the landing performance was excellent, with a score of 97.3% reflecting the pilot's skill and attention to detail.
