MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Wait for the normal flare band and the correct speed before raising the nose, rather than starting the flare at 86 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 86 ft, 41 ft above the normal band, and the touchdown followed at 348 fpm. Starting the flare this early usually carries through to a firmer arrival than a flare begun in the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: hold the flare start within the normal flare band
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,298 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,298 m of the 3,893 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 577 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A300 taxied from the parking area to runway 26R at EDDP Leipzig/Halle Airport in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 26R, the aircraft accelerated to a take-off distance of 2,024 m, representing 56 % of the runway length, and rotated at 160 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 14 °C, wind 3 kt from 180°, a crosswind component of 3 kt and a headwind component of 0 kt.
Climb commenced 1 mile west of EDDP, with the aircraft ascending from 1,376 ft asl to 24,001 ft asl, an increase of 22,625 ft achieved in 12 minutes while covering 74 nm.
Level cruise began overhead Frauenwald in Thuringia and continued for 27 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 187 nm.
Descent started 2 miles east of Oppenau, with altitude decreasing from 23,481 ft asl to 2,139 ft asl, a loss of 21,342 ft in 15 minutes and a distance of 68 nm.
Final approach to runway 15 at LFSB EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg involved a descent from 1,327 ft agl to 67 ft agl in 107 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 15 was executed with a threshold speed of 133 kt; touchdown occurred 156 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 kt and a firm rate of minus 349 fpm. The touchdown point was offset by 3.2 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 14 °C, wind 3 kt from 172°, crosswind 1 kt and headwind 3 kt.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 2,214 m, equivalent to 57 % of the runway, and alignment during rollout was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 342 nm, taking 69 minutes and consuming 6,709 kg of fuel.
