MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Take the power back earlier on final, so the aircraft settles onto the path and the speed comes back to 116 kt together. Do not push down for the height: that only adds speed.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 58 ft agl, 8 ft agl above the 50 ft agl target, and at 122 kt, 6 kt over the 116 kt threshold speed. High and fast together is energy the runway has to absorb, and this touchdown came 178 m beyond the aim point.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 116 kt on short final, then 50 ft agl over the threshold
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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,815 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and glideslope 4.4° against the runway's 3°.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,996 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 635 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The ATR 72 taxied from the parking area to the departure runway, covering 3 nm in 13 minutes.
The aircraft departed from runway 27 at LDPL Pula Airport, achieving a take-off roll of 1,097 m (37 % of the runway) and rotating at 120 kt. Ambient conditions were 16 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 313°, providing a 6 kt headwind and a 6 kt crosswind component.
Climb commenced 1 mile south-west of Loborika (Istria, Croatia), with the aeroplane ascending from 1,284 ft asl to 14,983 ft asl - a gain of 13,699 ft - over 13 minutes while covering 38 nm.
The first cruise segment began 2 miles south-east of Buzet (Istria, Croatia) and lasted 17 minutes, during which 65 nm were flown at level altitude.
Descent started overhead Bocna (Gornji Grad, Slovenia), descending from 15,008 ft asl to 7,703 ft asl - a loss of 7,304 ft - in 8 minutes and spanning 31 nm.
A brief level cruise followed overhead Wies (Steiermark, Austria), lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
The second descent began 1 mile east of Unterbergla (Steiermark, Austria), with altitude decreasing from 7,132 ft asl to 2,964 ft asl - a drop of 4,168 ft - in 4 minutes over a distance of 10 nm.
Final approach to runway 34C at LOWG Graz Airport involved a descent from 1,937 ft agl to 61 ft agl in 83 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 34C at LOWG Graz Airport was executed on a 2,996 m runway; the threshold height at 58 ft agl and the threshold speed of 123 kt were slightly above target. Touchdown occurred 210 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 110 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 215 fpm and a lateral deviation of 6.2 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 11 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 170°, a 0 kt crosswind and a 3 kt tailwind.
The total landing distance recorded was 1,173 m, representing 39 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was described as very good.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 nm, a maneuver that took 3 minutes.
In summary, the flight covered 158 nm, required 54 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 497 kg of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 22 at LSGG Geneva Cointrin International Airport with a smooth touchdown rate of -136 fpm, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown speed of 103 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown distance of 370 m was good, considering the available runway length of 3,897 m. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 112 kt, but this did not affect the overall performance of the landing.
The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and perfect runway touchdown alignment. The centreline alignment during the rollout phase was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the critical phases of the landing. The total landing distance of 1,959 m, which accounted for 50% of the runway, was within the acceptable range, considering the wind conditions of 1 kt at 360°.
The landing was completed with a high level of precision and control, earning a score of 99.9%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 34 °C and minimal wind, contributed to the successful outcome of the landing. Overall, the landing was a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance capabilities.
