MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7.2 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,704 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,704 m of the 2,441 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 727 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, the Airbus A321 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft lined up on runway 33, it was cleared for departure, and the takeoff roll commenced. The aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 154 knots, having covered a distance of 1,412 meters, which represented 44% of the runway length.
As the aircraft climbed away from Hamburg, it encountered a local weather pattern characterized by a temperature of 12°C and winds blowing at 15 knots from a direction of 230°. The enroute climb phase began approximately 1 mile southwest of Langenhorn, and the aircraft continued to ascend to a cruising altitude of 35,765 feet above sea level, a gain of 34,678 feet in 22 minutes. The climb phase covered a distance of 137 nautical miles. Following a brief level cruise phase, which lasted 31 minutes and covered 234 nautical miles, the aircraft began its enroute descent phase, starting 6 miles north of Judaberg, Norway. The descent phase saw the aircraft lose 34,415 feet in altitude in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Bergen Airport, Flesland, it encountered a local weather pattern characterized by a temperature of 4°C and winds blowing at 13 knots from a direction of 140°. The final approach to runway 17 was made from the north, with the aircraft aligning itself with the runway at a height of 1,335 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target value of 138 knots, and the touchdown point was located 307 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 128 knots, but the touchdown rate of -290 feet per minute was considered fair. The aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 481 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 4,203 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which lasted a total of 81 minutes.
The final approach to runway 17 at ENBR Bergen Airport, Flesland, was conducted from the north, heading 171.0° at 4 nm and 1,335 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
As the aircraft touched down on runway 17, the touchdown point was 307 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. The touchdown speed of 128 kt was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -290 fpm was fair. Notwithstanding these minor deviations, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating excellent control and precision during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 4 °C and a wind of 13 kt at 140°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,620 m was 66% of the runway length, indicating a reasonable utilization of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating excellent control and stability during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 94.5% reflecting the minor deviations from the optimal landing parameters.
