Flight Score
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to track the centreline.
What happened: The aircraft drifted off the centreline during the landing roll.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings aligned with the runway centreline
See Arrival Landing
Pull to 15 degrees at one rate and you get a clean liftoff, pull to the same 15 degrees at twice the rate and you get an overshoot, a push, and an oscillation through the first few hundred feet. The type-general rule of thumb is a rotation rate of about 2 to 3 degrees per second, which means roughly five to seven seconds from starting the pull to reaching the initial climb attitude of around 15 degrees nose-up. Count it out loud during your next takeoff and you will almost certainly discover you have been rotating in two seconds flat.

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 2,135 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
Departing from Montreal/Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (CYUL), the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 24L, it was cleared for departure roll, and with a takeoff distance of 1,083 meters, which equated to 37% of the runway length, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 151 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 280°, resulting in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Dorval, Quebec, Canada, and continued to ascend to 25,350 feet above sea level, an increase of 24,252 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 47 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase commenced approximately 2 miles northeast of Morrisonville, New York, United States, and lasted for 25 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 157 nautical miles. As the aircraft began its descent, it passed overhead Otis, Massachusetts, United States, and continued to descend to 1,284 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,584 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 95 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22 at LaGuardia Airport (KLGA) was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 212.0° at an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down 47 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 127 knots, resulting in a touchdown rate of -136 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 1,203 meters, which equated to 56% of the runway length. Following a perfect runway rollout alignment, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 309 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 1 hour and 9 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,723 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 22 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport with a high degree of precision, showcasing the pilot's exceptional skill and control. The approach quality was outstanding, with a steady descent from 1,260 feet above ground level (agl) at 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The aircraft maintained a heading of 212.0°, aligning perfectly with the runway centerline.
As the aircraft crossed the threshold, it touched down at a speed of 127 knots, well within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 47 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, but still within the safe limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -136 feet per minute, indicating a controlled and stable descent. The runway touchdown alignment was flawless, with the aircraft perfectly centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14°C and a 9-knot headwind, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect centerline alignment as it decelerated to a stop. The total landing distance of 1,203 meters was 56% of the runway length, a testament to the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and control its descent. Overall, the landing was a success, with a score of 99.7% reflecting the high level of proficiency and skill demonstrated by the pilot.
