MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 183 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 49 kt fast at 232 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 183 kt in the climb
Arrival
Carry more power on approach to hold 119 kt at the threshold instead of letting speed decay into the flare.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink at 29 ft while already below the speed target, and the aircraft settled as the remaining energy ran out, usually carrying a firm touchdown with it at 349 fpm.
Watch for: Watch airspeed on short final against 119 kt, keeping it there through the flare.
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 3,491 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 444 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Tunis Carthage International Airport, runway 29, the Boeing 737 Max 8 began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 132 kt. The aircraft cleared the runway threshold in 903 meters, utilizing 34% of the available length. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 34 °C, with a wind of 6 kt at 310°, resulting in a 2 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Ariana, Tunisia, before leveling off at 33,993 ft asl. The climb phase was completed in 13 minutes, covering 82 nm. The aircraft then entered a 29-minute level cruise, flying 200 nm south east of El Kala, Algeria. Subsequent descents and level cruises were initiated over various points in Algeria, with the final descent commencing 1 mile north east of Douera. The aircraft landed on runway 09 at Houari Boumediene Airport, with a touchdown distance of 454 m and a touchdown speed of 108 kt. The total landing distance was 1,291 m, utilizing 37% of the available runway length.
The flight's performance was notable, with a total distance of 400 nm covered in 79 minutes, utilizing 2,463 kg of fuel. Taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The aircraft's handling and performance were satisfactory, with good threshold height, touchdown speed, and runway touchdown alignment. The local weather conditions at the time of landing featured a temperature of 29 °C, with a wind of 5 kt at 60°, resulting in a 3 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind.
The final approach to runway 09 at DAAG Houari Boumediene Airport from the west, heading 92.0° at 4 nm and 1,159 ft agl, was executed with good quality, characterized by a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft maintained a steady rate of descent, ultimately resulting in a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was a little below the target at 117 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal approach speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good characteristics, with a touchdown distance of 454 m and a touchdown speed of 108 kt, both of which were within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -414 fpm, suggesting a slight loss of control during the final stages of the approach. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of precision and control. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 29 °C and a wind of 5 kt at 60°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,291 m, which accounted for 37% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision during the final stages of the landing. Overall, the landing was scored 94.9%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
