MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 107 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 310 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,492 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 498 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking to the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 03R at VTBD Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok, Thailand. The takeoff distance was 958 meters, which is 30% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 145 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of the airport and ascending from an altitude of 1,058 feet above sea level to 38,916 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,858 feet in 34 minutes, covering a distance of 245 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began 16 miles southwest of Amnat Charoen, Thailand, and lasted for 243 minutes, covering a distance of 2,517 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, beginning 50 miles southwest of RJOD Taiki Aerospace Research Airfield Obihiro in Hokkaido, Japan. The descent from 39,047 feet above sea level to 1,785 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,262 feet in 10 minutes, covered a distance of 52 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35 at RJCB Tokachi-Obihiro Airport was made from the south, heading 339.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 35 was successful, with a total landing distance of 917 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. The touchdown point was 76 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 121 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -281 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 350 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 7 knots. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took approximately 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 2,820 nautical miles, taking a total of 291 minutes, and the aircraft used 14,621 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at RJCB Tokachi-Obihiro Airport, with a final approach score of 99.1%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south, heading 339.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 35, which has a length of 2,492 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 131 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly faster than desired. The touchdown point was 76 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path.
The touchdown rate of -281 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft touched down with a moderate rate of descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the landing technique.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 350°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 7 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's landing performance.
The total landing distance of 917 meters was 37% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft maintained a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with some minor deviations from the ideal performance.
