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 7.3°, 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 276 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 265 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,914 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 657 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 30 at LEMG Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport in Spain. The takeoff distance was 1,747 meters, which accounted for 64% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 289 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northwest of LEMG Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport. The climb took 20 minutes and covered a distance of 127 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,039 feet above sea level to 38,779 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,740 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 4 miles southwest of LELA La Calderera Airfield in Valdepeñas, Spain. This phase of the flight lasted for 139 minutes and covered a distance of 983 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles southeast of Leer in Lower Saxony, Germany. The descent took 29 minutes and covered a distance of 124 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 37,525 feet above sea level to 1,347 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,177 feet.
The final approach to runway 25 at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 252.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,290 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 1,914 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 120 knots.
The touchdown point was 230 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -200 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 300 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,090 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 12.6 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 1,242 nautical miles and took 200 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 6,622 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport, with a score of 89.8%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the east, heading 252.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,290 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 1,914 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 120 knots. The touchdown point was 230 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which indicates that the aircraft landed slightly short of the intended position. The touchdown speed of 120 knots was considered good, but the touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair. This suggests that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly higher rate of descent than desired.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots from 300°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,090 meters, which represents 57% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 12.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some minor deviations from the desired performance. The aircraft's score of 89.8% suggests that there is room for improvement in terms of precision and consistency in the landing phase.
