MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Hold the nose down until the speed reaches 146 kt, then rotate.
What happened: You started the rotation at 118 kt, 28 kt before the 146 kt rotation speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 146 kt at rotation
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Begin raising the nose earlier, by 11 ft, so the flare has time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
What happened: The flare began late at 3.5 ft, 7.8 ft below the normal band, and a late flare like this usually leaves too little time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and start the flare in the normal band, around 11 ft.
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.
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,892 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 213 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 06 at EDNY Friedrichshafen Airport in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 06, the Aer Lingus A32-251N accelerated over a takeoff distance of 823 m, representing 40 % of the runway, and lifted off at 137 kt; ambient temperature was 22 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 166°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and no head-wind.
The first en-route climb commenced 1 mile south-west of Meckenbeuren, Germany, climbing from 2,385 ft asl to 17,620 ft asl - a gain of 15,235 ft - in 6 minutes while covering 24 nm.
A brief level cruise began 1 mile north-west of Owingen, Germany, lasting 6 minutes and covering less than 1 nm.
The second climb started 1 mile north-west of Owingen, climbing from 17,620 ft asl to 25,594 ft asl - an increase of 7,974 ft - in 5 minutes and traversing 30 nm.
A subsequent level cruise was flown overhead Hallau, Switzerland, for 5 minutes and a distance of 32 nm.
Descent operations began overhead Rothrist, Switzerland, descending from 25,393 ft asl to 2,688 ft asl - a loss of 22,705 ft - in 21 minutes while covering 92 nm.
The final approach to runway 22 at LSGG Geneva Cointrin International Airport was conducted from the north-east, on a heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,286 ft agl.
Landing on runway 22, which is 3,892 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed slightly above target at 134 kt; touchdown occurred 212 m down the runway at 132 kt, with a heavy touchdown rate of minus 616 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 23 °C, wind 1 kt from 3°, a cross-wind of 1 kt and a tail-wind component of 1 kt. The total landing distance was 1,012 m, representing 26 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, completing the landing roll within the calculated distance.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 186 nm, lasted 47 minutes, and consumed 1,972 kg of fuel.
