MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 0.5° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 7.9° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 71 kt before crossing the threshold.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 90 kt, 19 kt above the 71 kt target.
Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 71 kt at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed, off the runway's 3° glideslope, off the centreline and speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 6,530 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,464 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll took place on runway 06 at PMDY Henderson Field, with the aircraft taking off after covering 1,627 feet, which was 21% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 97 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead PMDY Henderson Field Sand Island, located in the Midway Atoll, United States Minor Outlying Islands. The climb began at an altitude of 799 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 30,252 feet, an increase of 29,452 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 71 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 71 miles east of PMDY Henderson Field Sand Island and lasted for 180 minutes, covering a distance of 964 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead PHPA Port Allen Airport Hanapepe, located in Hawaii, United States. The descent from 30,183 feet to 29,674 feet, a decrease of 509 feet, took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, this time starting 4 miles south of Kalaheo, Hawaii, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 3 miles south of Po'ipu, Hawaii, and the aircraft descended from 30,207 feet to 1,807 feet, a decrease of 28,400 feet, in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35 at PHLI Lihue Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 1.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,646 feet above ground level and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on runway 35, which had a length of 6,530 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 90 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 1,459 feet, but the touchdown speed of 71 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -107 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 25 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 11 knots at 70 degrees.
The total landing distance was 4,581 feet, which was 70% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 25 feet from the centreline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,059 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 223 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used 0 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at PHLI Lihue Airport, achieving a score of 92.4%. The final approach to runway 35 was initiated from the south, with a heading of 1.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,646 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 6,530 feet.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly too high at 90 knots. However, the touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 1,459 feet. The touchdown speed of 71 knots was a bit faster than ideal, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -107 feet per minute (fpm).
The runway touchdown position was not perfectly aligned with the centreline, being off by 25 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 82°F and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 70°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 4,581 feet, which is approximately 70% of the runway length. During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment with the centreline was slightly off by 25 feet. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the Vision Jet demonstrating good control and stability throughout the process.
