See Departure Roll
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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.
At the 300 ft gate: wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,814 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 533 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EGPE Inverness Airport took approximately 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then proceeded to depart from runway 23, utilizing 85% of the available length, which measured 1,535 meters. The takeoff distance was achieved at a liftoff speed of 105 knots, with local weather conditions consisting of a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°.
Following takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, navigating the circuit in a timely manner. The pattern entry from runway 23 took less than 1 nautical mile in 17 seconds, while the crosswind leg was completed in 20 seconds. The subsequent downwind turn, base leg turn, and final turn were executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent angle to the runway. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 229.0° at an altitude of 242 feet above ground level. The landing was successfully executed on runway 23, which measured 1,814 meters in length, with a threshold speed of 108 knots and a touchdown speed of 86 knots.
The touchdown point was located 103 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown rate of -18 feet per minute, indicating a perfect touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was maintained throughout the landing distance, which measured 981 meters, or 54% of the available runway length. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, covering a distance of 5 minutes, and the aircraft utilized 31 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft commenced its final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport from the north east, aligning with the runway heading of 229.0° at 0 nm and 242 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 108 kt. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it touched down 103 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 86 kt. The touchdown rate was perfectly controlled at -18 fpm, indicating a smooth and stable landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 1 kt. The aircraft's performance was impressive, with a total landing distance of 981 m, which accounted for 54% of the runway length. This demonstrated a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment on the runway centerline. The overall performance of the aircraft was outstanding, with a score of 98.8% reflecting its exceptional handling and control during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's capabilities, with all factors contributing to a safe and efficient operation.
