Scoring thresholds.
Roundout applies these to every aircraft in this category, except where an aircraft carries its own G-force curve or tail-strike limit. Scores fall in a straight line between the points, from 0 to 100 for each part; the composite formula is in the scoring methodology.
- Ideal touchdown zone
- 120 to 380mpast the threshold
- Tail-strike limit
- 9°pitch at touchdown
- Approach-speed tolerance
