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 6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections to track the centreline, aiming at a point on the far end of the runway.
What happened: Heading drifted off the extended centreline during the final approach segment.
Watch for: Heading indicator against the runway centreline track.
See Arrival Final 1
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 3,238 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the full 3,238 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,105 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Vision Jet, then departed from runway 16L at Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima, Peru. The takeoff distance was 1,807 feet, which is 19% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 99 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 83°F and a wind speed of 10 knots from 180°.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 9 knots. The enroute climb started overhead SPIM Jorge Chavez International Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,083 feet above sea level to 2,445 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,362 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Carmen De La Legua Reynoso and lasted for 53 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. This was followed by another enroute climb, which started overhead the same location and took the aircraft from 2,434 feet above sea level to 29,009 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,575 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 64 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 31 miles southwest of Asia and lasted for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 4 miles southeast of Santiago, where it descended from 29,004 feet above sea level to 26,943 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,062 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 11 miles southeast of Santiago and lasted for 11 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. This was followed by another descent, which started at the same location and took the aircraft from 26,943 feet above sea level to 2,380 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,563 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 47 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07 at Maria Reiche Neuman Airport was made from the west, heading 74.0° at 2 nautical miles and 559 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,099 feet, a touchdown speed of 80 knots, and a touchdown rate of -302 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 76°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 202°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 2,200 feet, which is 68% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 33 feet from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 225 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 64 minutes, using 447 pounds of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at SPZA Maria Reiche Neuman Airport, achieving a score of 76.5%. The final approach to runway 07 was initiated from the west, heading 74.0° at 2 nautical miles and 559 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was satisfactory, with a threshold speed of 87 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
The touchdown distance of 1,099 feet was also within the expected parameters, indicating that the pilot maintained control and managed the aircraft's descent effectively. The touchdown speed of 80 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -302 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled and stable landing.
However, there were some areas for improvement. The threshold height at 78 feet agl was above the target, which may have required the pilot to make some adjustments to the approach. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline, which could have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 76°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 202°. The crosswind was minimal at 4 knots, and the tailwind was 5 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 2,200 feet was 68% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot managed to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 33 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a minor issue with the brakes or a slight deviation in the pilot's control. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and touchdown.
