Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 1.4° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 1.7° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,916 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,916 m of the 2,936 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 658 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 24 at EHRD Rotterdam The Hague Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,184 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 260 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Overschie in the Netherlands. The climb took 20 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,009 feet above sea level to 38,148 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile north of Wuppertal in Germany. This cruise phase lasted for 42 minutes and covered a distance of 346 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles west of Mallnitz in Austria. The descent took 25 minutes and covered a distance of 121 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 38,386 feet to 5,451 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 7 miles southwest of Rovinj in Croatia. This cruise phase was brief, lasting only 2 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 12 miles southwest of Rovinj. The descent took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 15 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 5,112 feet to 1,564 feet.
The final approach to runway 09 at LDPL Pula Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 88.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,339 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 240 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -61 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 12 knots from a direction of 70 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The total landing distance was 1,832 meters, which accounted for 62% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.2 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 604 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 105 minutes. The aircraft used 3,621 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at LDPL Pula Airport, achieving a high score of 92.4%. The final approach to runway 09 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 88.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,339 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 143 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 240 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 135 knots. This speed was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate was particularly impressive, with an excellent rate of -61 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the aircraft touched down with minimal impact, reducing the risk of damage to the aircraft and the runway.
However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline, indicating a slight deviation from the intended path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 14.2 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the aircraft may have drifted slightly during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 29°C and a wind speed of 12 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth and controlled landing performance of the aircraft. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the final approach and touchdown phases.
