MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.
What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.
Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 8.4 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 12 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 305 m and 152 m 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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,173 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 609 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.70 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, the aircraft began its journey on runway 05R, taking off with a distance of 2,006 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 168 knots, with a local temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 1 knot from a direction of 316 degrees. As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 323 meters above sea level to a cruising altitude of 11,114 meters above sea level, a vertical gain of 10,791.3 meters, in just 30 minutes and covering a distance of 228 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began at a latitude of 28.1673355 and longitude of 123.6574173, lasting for 23 minutes and covering 198 nautical miles. The aircraft then commenced its enroute descent, reducing its altitude from 11,268 meters above sea level to 4,603 meters above sea level, a decrease of 6,665.1 meters, in just 13 minutes and covering 105 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to alternate between level cruise and descent phases, with notable level cruise phases occurring 33 miles south of RKGI Alddreu Airfield, lasting 2 minutes and covering 11 nautical miles, and 7 miles south of Seogwipo, lasting 24 minutes and covering 109 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 14 miles west of RKGI Alddreu Airfield, reducing the altitude from 2,746 meters above sea level to 405 meters above sea level, a decrease of 1,825.2 meters, in 9 minutes and covering 32 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 07 at Jeju International Airport, descending from 376.3 meters above ground level to touch down on the runway at a speed of 130 knots. The touchdown point was 187 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown rate of -0.8 meters per second. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking just 4 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 727 nautical miles, taking 128 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,401 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The aircraft touched down on runway 07 at RKPC Jeju International Airport with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 138 kt was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown point was 187 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, was still within a reasonable distance.
The touchdown speed of 130 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -0.8 m/s was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a stable and consistent approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 22 °C and a gentle headwind of 5 kt, were favorable for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,428 m was 45% of the runway length, which is a reasonable figure considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.6 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control inputs during the rollout phase. Despite this minor issue, the overall landing performance was good, with a score of 94.5%.
