MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Bring the nose up sooner, before reaching 141 kt, so the wheels leave the ground at the correct liftoff speed.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off fast at 164 kt, 23 kt above the target, and this pattern usually carries through into a climb speed that stays fast as well.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 187 kt in the climb
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bleed back to 133 kt well before the gate.
What happened: Approach was fast through the stabilisation gate, and the threshold was crossed at 158 kt against the 133 kt target. Carrying that extra speed in usually carries the touchdown long, which it did here at 936 m against the 457 m target.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 133 kt at the threshold
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate 2,024 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and speed 40 kt FAST on the reference speed of 133 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,836 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,836 m of the 3,171 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 936 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Learjet 35 taxied to runway 08 at CYTZ Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport and commenced the departure roll, using 963 m of runway, which represented 78 % of the available length. Liftoff was achieved at 164 kt. Ambient conditions were 28 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 199°, a cross-wind component of 7 kt and a tail-wind component of 6 kt.
Climb began approximately one mile south of Moss Park, Ontario, with the aircraft accelerating from 1,257 ft asl to 6,387 ft asl, a gain of 5,130 ft achieved in three minutes while covering 13 nm.
Descent was initiated about two miles north of Bayview Woods-Steeles, Ontario, descending from 6,391 ft asl to 1,960 ft asl, a loss of 4,431 ft in two minutes and traversing 11 nm.
The final approach to runway 23 at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport was flown from the north-east on a heading of 222.0° at a distance of four nautical miles and an altitude of 1,402 ft agl.
Landing on runway 23, whose total length is 3,236 m, occurred with a threshold height of 57 ft agl and a threshold speed of 158 kt. Touchdown was recorded 590 m beyond the designated touchdown zone at a speed of 133 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 158 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.3 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was 27 °C, wind 17 kt from 330°, cross-wind 16 kt and tail-wind 4 kt. The total landing distance measured 1,825 m, representing 56 % of the runway.
Runway rollout continued with a slight centreline deviation of 8.5 m before the aircraft exited the paved surface.
Taxi-in to the parking area required three minutes and covered less than one nautical mile.
In summary, the flight covered a total of 31 nm, took 11, and consumed 85 kg of fuel.
