Flight Score
Departure
Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold bank angle near zero during the initial climb, starting from 5.1°.
What happened: Bank angle was elevated during the initial climb and excess bank usually persists into the second climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, wings level with bank angle near zero degrees.
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 six 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 2,708 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 367 m touchdown sits inside 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 31R at LFML Marseille Provence Airport, with a takeoff distance of 730 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 140 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots at a direction of 259°. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead LFML Marseille Provence Airport, Marignane. The climb took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 48 nautical miles, with an increase in altitude from 1,035 feet above sea level to 25,012 feet above sea level, a total increase of 23,977 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile east of Chusclan. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 33 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Mirmande. The descent took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 69 nautical miles, with a decrease in altitude from 25,007 feet above sea level to 3,485 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 21,522 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead Cailloux-sur-Fontaines. This phase lasted for 6 minutes and covered a distance of 22 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 17L at LFLL Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 175.0° and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The landing on runway 17L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 369 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 122 knots, which was slightly fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at -286 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at a direction of 280°. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,223 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.4 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 180 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 44 minutes and a fuel consumption of 652 kilograms.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at LFLL Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport, achieving a score of 96.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 175.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,390 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft then landed on runway 17L, which has a length of 2,708 meters.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 126 knots, which may have been due to various factors such as wind resistance or pilot input. The touchdown distance of 369 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.
Despite the good touchdown distance, the touchdown speed of 122 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a higher touchdown rate. The touchdown rate of -286 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced some deceleration during the touchdown process. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 280°. The crosswind component was 14 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's approach and touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,223 meters was 45% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to various factors such as pilot input or aircraft performance. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 96.6% indicating a high level of proficiency.
