MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.
What happened: The aircraft tracked 13 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 6.3°, into the first climb.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 42 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 42 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 42 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
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 305 m and 152 m 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 3,000 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 729 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport (LIMJ) took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 10, utilizing 889 meters, or 32% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 121 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 19°C, with a wind of 14 knots at 20°, resulting in a crosswind component of 14 knots and a headwind component of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed away from LIMJ, it began its enroute climb 1 mile east of the airport, ascending from an initial altitude of 314 meters above sea level to a cruise altitude of 10,897 meters above sea level. This climb phase, which covered a distance of 113 nautical miles, was completed in 27 minutes, representing an increase of 10,582.9 meters in altitude. Following a 87-minute cruise phase, during which the aircraft leveled off at 10,897 meters above sea level and covered a distance of 220 nautical miles, the enroute descent phase commenced 71 miles northwest of Ustica, Sicily. The aircraft descended from 11,019 meters above sea level to 288 meters above sea level in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 112 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at Falcone-Borsellino Airport (LICJ) was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 245.0° at 4 nautical miles and 272.9 meters above ground level. The landing was completed on runway 25, which featured a length of 3,000 meters. The touchdown point was 308 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 114 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -0.7 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.9 meters from the centerline. Following a total landing distance of 1,147 meters, or 38% of the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 455 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 2 hours and 3 minutes, and a fuel consumption of 507 kilograms.
The final approach to runway 25 at LICJ Falcone–Borsellino Airport from the north east was initiated at a heading of 245.0°, 4 nautical miles from the threshold and at an altitude of 272.9 meters above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with the threshold height at 21.5 meters above ground level being well above the target. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, aligning itself with the runway for a smooth touchdown.
As the aircraft touched down 308 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 114 knots, the touchdown rate was smooth at -0.7 meters per second. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.9 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 9 knots at 10°, contributed to a relatively stable approach. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the tailwind component was 5 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,147 meters was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance scored 87.7%, reflecting a satisfactory approach and touchdown, but with some minor deviations from the ideal.
