Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 4.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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.

Side view — the last 1,603 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,603 m of the 2,377 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 385 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 23R at the KIND Indianapolis International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,329 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 16 knots at 310°. The crosswind was 16 knots, while the headwind was 1 knot. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of the airport, with the aircraft climbing from 1,786 feet above sea level to 33,719 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,932 feet in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 128 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 2 miles west of Yellow Springs, Ohio, and lasted for 38 minutes, covering a distance of 325 nautical miles. Following the cruise, the enroute descent started 2 miles northeast of PA69 Vogelsong Airport in Dillsburg, Pennsylvania. The descent from 33,391 feet above sea level to 1,681 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,709 feet, took 27 minutes and covered a distance of 158 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 09 at KSWF New York Stewart International Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 78.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,181 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 09 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 133 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -141 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 1°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 69°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,522 meters, which accounted for 64% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took 3 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 621 nautical miles, taking 99 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,774 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at New York Stewart International Airport (KSWF) on runway 09. The final approach was executed from the west, heading 78.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,181 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 139 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 383 meters was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and altitude during the landing phase. However, the touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly higher than the ideal speed, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance.
The landing rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -141 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled and stable touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a precise course during the final approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 1°C and a headwind of 4 knots, did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,522 meters was 64% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and the wind conditions. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, resulting in a score of 99.9%.
