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 7.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,903 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 471 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 24 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,539 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 22°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 349 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead Chilly-Mazarin, a town in the Ile-de-France region of France. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,309 feet above sea level to 29,159 feet, an increase of 27,849 feet, in 21 minutes and covering a distance of 127 nautical miles.
After reaching cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles south east of Saint-Blin, a town in the Grand Est region of France. This phase lasted for 123 minutes and covered a distance of 1,003 nautical miles. The enroute descent began overhead Lykovrysi, a town in the Attica region of Greece. The aircraft descended from 28,961 feet to 1,657 feet, a decrease of 27,304 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 87 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGMK Mykonos Island National Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 341.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,253 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on runway 34, which had a length of 1,903 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 142 knots. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 145 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -249 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 22°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 350 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 10 knots. The touchdown point was 61 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The total landing distance was 1,127 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,226 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 176 minutes. The aircraft used 9,024 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Mykonos Island National Airport, achieving a score of 99.6%. The final approach to runway 34 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 341.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,253 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 142 knots. However, the touchdown point was located 61 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the aircraft may have landed slightly ahead of schedule. The touchdown speed of 145 knots was slightly faster than ideal, and the touchdown rate of -249 feet per minute was considered fair.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 350°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 10 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway length of 1,903 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which totaled 1,127 meters, or 59% of the runway.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing the aircraft to come to a stop in a controlled manner. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling during the final approach and touchdown phases.
