MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 51 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 51 ft, 6 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
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.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,999 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,999 m of the 2,810 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 729 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 777F, then departed from runway 19 at SUMU Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,791 meters, which is 80% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 168 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 189°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 9 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile east of Paso de Carrasco, Uruguay, and climbed from 1,121 feet above sea level to 14,122 feet above sea level, an increase of 13,001 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 10 miles southwest of Santiago Vazquez, Uruguay, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 24 miles southwest of Libertad, Uruguay, and climbed from 14,416 feet above sea level to 19,842 feet above sea level, an increase of 5,426 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 25 miles southwest of Rafael Perazza, Uruguay, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 18 miles southeast of SUCA Colonia Laguna de Los Patos International Airport, Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay, and descended from 20,073 feet above sea level to 11,232 feet above sea level, a decrease of 8,841 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 5 miles east of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Villa Ortuzar, Argentina, and descended from 10,974 feet above sea level to 712 feet above sea level, a decrease of 10,262 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17 at SAEZ Minister Pistarini International Airport was from the north, heading 171.0° at 4 nautical miles and 642 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was initiated at 597 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 17, which has a length of 2,810 meters. The threshold height at 81 feet above ground level was significantly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 140 knots.
The touchdown point was 264 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -193 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 200°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,869 meters, which is 67% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 139 nautical miles, taking 46 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,813 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at SAEZ Minister Pistarini International Airport, achieving an overall score of 84.0%. The final approach to runway 17 was initiated from the north, with a heading of 171.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 642 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also good, at -193 feet per minute (fpm). However, the touchdown point was located 264 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot.
The threshold height at 81 feet agl was significantly above the target, suggesting that the aircraft may have been higher than desired at the point of touchdown. Nevertheless, the threshold speed was good at 140 knots, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway after touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 200°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were likely favorable for the landing, contributing to the overall success of the operation.
In terms of the landing distance, the aircraft required 1,869 meters to come to a stop, which was 67% of the available runway length. This suggests that the aircraft was able to stop safely within the designated runway area, despite the slight deviation from the intended touchdown point. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a good touchdown speed, rate, and rollout alignment.
