MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 227 fpm.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 333 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline and wings not level.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,172 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,172 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,107 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a quick taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking less than 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Embraer E195, then departed from runway 13L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The takeoff distance was 1,216 meters, which is 33% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 151 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 14 knots at a direction of 110°.
The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots. As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile north of Vecses, Pest megye, Hungary, at an altitude of 1,485 feet above sea level. The climb continued to an altitude of 1,947 feet above sea level, an increase of 462 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles southwest of Ullo, Pest megye, Hungary, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its enroute descent from the same location, descending from an altitude of 2,012 feet above sea level to 1,300 feet above sea level, a decrease of 712 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31R at LHBP was made from the southeast, heading 305.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 847 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 31R, which has a length of 3,701 meters. The threshold height at 73 feet above ground level was well above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 141 knots.
The touchdown point was 696 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 128 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -195 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 14 knots at a direction of 109°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the tailwind component was 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,097 meters, which is 57% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 12 nautical miles, taking 9 minutes, and the aircraft used -2 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft in question, an E195, successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport on runway 31R. The final approach was initiated from the south east, heading 305.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 847 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 84.4%.
The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with the threshold height being well above the target, indicating a safe margin for landing. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 141 knots, which may require some adjustments in the approach procedure. The touchdown point was 696 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance, but the touchdown speed of 128 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -195 feet per minute was also good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from 109°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, and the tailwind component was 13 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slightly above-target threshold speed.
The total landing distance of 2,097 meters was 57% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll. The slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position by 6.9 meters from the centerline was not significant enough to affect the overall performance of the landing.
Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the target values. However, the aircraft's performance was still within the acceptable range, and the pilot's skills were demonstrated through the successful execution of the landing.
