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 2.4° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 10° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections to track the centreline, aiming at a point on the far end of the runway.
What happened: Heading drifted off the extended centreline during the final approach segment.
Watch for: Heading indicator against the runway centreline track.
See Arrival Final 1
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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: off the centreline and wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 493 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 20 at RJOI Iwakuni Kintaikyo Airport / Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni. The takeoff distance was 1,794 meters, which accounted for 73% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 219 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of the airport and reaching an altitude of 36,395 feet above sea level. This climb, which covered a distance of 203 nautical miles, took 12 minutes and involved an increase in altitude of 35,381 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 46 nautical miles. This phase began 11 miles southwest of Tsu, a city located in the Mie-ken prefecture of Japan. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles northeast of Tahara, a city located in the Aichi-ken prefecture of Japan. This descent, which covered a distance of 134 nautical miles, took 20 minutes and involved a decrease in altitude of 35,676 feet.
The final approach to runway 23 at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 202.0 degrees at an altitude of 685 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 23, which had a length of 2,490 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 131 knots.
The touchdown point was 67 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 122 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was firm at -386 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, despite the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 27 knots from a direction of 209 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 26 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,155 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.8 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 391 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 55 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 3,616 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 202.0° at 2 nautical miles and 685 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 2,490 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 131 knots. The touchdown point was 67 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 122 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -386 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 27 knots from 209°. The crosswind component was minimal at 6 knots, while the headwind component was 26 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's stable approach and landing.
The total landing distance was 1,155 meters, which is 46% of the runway length. This indicates a relatively short landing distance, suggesting that the aircraft was well-controlled throughout the approach and landing phases. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.8 meters from the centerline, which may require further attention to ensure a more precise alignment during future landings.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft demonstrated good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown zone accuracy and runway rollout alignment.
