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 5.2 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
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 4.6 ft, 6.6 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 3,406 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 387 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 1.88 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Ben Gurion International Airport (LLBG) in Tel Aviv, Israel, the Boeing 737-900 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. With the local weather conditions at 23 °C and a gentle tailwind of 4 knots, the aircraft took off from runway 26, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 164 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,780 meters was 58% of the runway length.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it passed overhead Hemed in the Central District of Israel, where the enroute climb began. The aircraft ascended from 1,097 feet above sea level to 32,341 feet, an increase of 31,244 feet in just 18 minutes, covering a distance of 118 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase followed, lasting 57 minutes and covering 198 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its descent towards Antalya International Airport (LTAI) in Turkey. The descent phase was divided into two segments, with the first segment covering a distance of 93 nautical miles and a decrease of 26,682 feet in 18 minutes. The second segment was shorter, lasting 5 minutes and covering 18 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 36R at LTAI was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 8.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,269 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 362 meters and a touchdown speed of 146 knots. However, the touchdown rate was heavy at -718 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.4 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,297 meters, 38% of the runway length. After taxiing to the parking area, the aircraft had completed a total flight distance of 437 nautical miles, using 3,919 kilograms of fuel in the process, and taking a total of 80 minutes to complete the journey.
The Boeing 737-900 touched down on runway 36R at LTAI Antalya International Airport, with a threshold height of 66 ft agl, exceeding the target height. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold speed of 149 kt, which met the desired standard. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, resulting in a touchdown distance of 362 m, within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 146 kt, which was within the target range. However, the touchdown rate was heavy, at -718 fpm, indicating a steeper-than-desired descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly off-centre, deviating by 6.4 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18 °C and a headwind of 5 kt, did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,297 m was 38% of the runway length, which was within the acceptable range. During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-centre, deviating by 9.5 m from the centreline. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, earning a score of 87.1%.
