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
Smooth out your control inputs through touchdown and rollout, easing the controls rather than snapping them to avoid sharp g spikes.
What happened: Average g force through the landing came out at 1 g, well above the smooth, steady loading expected through touchdown and rollout.
Watch for: G-force meter: hold it within the normal smooth range through touchdown and rollout.
See Arrival Landing
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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 11,853 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,555 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Los Angeles International Airport, the Boeing 737 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 9 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then rolled onto runway 24L, utilizing 2,735 feet, or 29% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 139 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 63°F, with a gentle headwind of 3 knots and a crosswind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed away from KLAX, it transitioned into an enroute climb, ascending from 1,127 feet above sea level to 35,607 feet, a gain of 34,480 feet, over a distance of 92 nautical miles in 15 minutes. Following this, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, initially at 35,192 feet, before descending to 6,266 feet over a distance of 86 nautical miles in 14 minutes. The aircraft then leveled off again, this time at 5,648 feet, before commencing a final descent to 1,281 feet over a distance of 14 nautical miles in 6 minutes. The flight then proceeded to San Francisco International Airport, where it began its final approach to runway 10L from the northwest.
The Boeing 737 touched down on runway 10L at KSFO, utilizing 3,196 feet, or 28% of the runway, and achieving a touchdown speed of 118 knots. The touchdown rate was an impressive -85 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned from the centerline. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 344 nautical miles, and the aircraft utilized 6,206 pounds of fuel over the course of the 71-minute flight.
The B737 touched down smoothly on runway 10L at KSFO San Francisco International Airport, showcasing exceptional approach quality. The aircraft descended from 1,259 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, aligning with the heading of 121.0°. The threshold height was well-managed, allowing for a good threshold speed of 125 knots. This speed was maintained throughout the touchdown phase, with the aircraft touching down at 118 knots, a speed that was within the acceptable range.
The touchdown characteristics were impressive, with a touchdown rate of -85 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled and gentle descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centreline, which may be attributed to minor deviations in the approach or landing technique. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 57°F and a wind speed of 3 knots at 207°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 3,196 feet was 28% of the runway length, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision during the rollout phase. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing was deemed 100.0% successful, with no notable issues or deviations from standard procedures.
