MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 12 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 12 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 12 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,914 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 731 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777F aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 11 at SAEZ Minister Pistarini International Airport in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The takeoff distance was 2,021 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 182 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 70 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile east of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,055 feet above sea level to 28,736 feet above sea level in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 80 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase started 9 miles south of Palmitas, Uruguay, and lasted for 31 minutes, covering a distance of 267 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb 8 miles southeast of Cacequi, Brazil, rising from 28,792 feet to 30,781 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 31 nautical miles. This was followed by a level cruise phase that started 11 miles west of Sao Pedro do Sul, Brazil, and lasted for 155 minutes, covering a distance of 1,341 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued its journey with a series of climbs and level cruises, each phase lasting for varying periods of time and covering different distances. The final climb phase started at a location with coordinates 18.7470254 latitude and -23.6574354 longitude, and the aircraft rose from 33,111 feet to 35,099 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted for 230 minutes, covering a distance of 1,737 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 2 miles east of Borriol, Spain, and descended from 35,066 feet to 4,779 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 06L at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading 66.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 06L, which had a length of 2,914 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 146 knots. The touchdown point was 317 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 138 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -170 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.2 meters.
The total landing distance was 1,401 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5,668 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 726 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 47,698 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, achieving a high score of 96.7%. The final approach to runway 06L was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 66.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 146 knots. The touchdown point was located 317 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal position. However, the touchdown speed of 138 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -170 feet per minute was also good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 99°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft performed well, and the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance of 1,401 meters was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft performed well in a variety of challenging conditions.
