MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 169 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 133 kt against a target of 169 kt, running 36 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 169 kt.
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 62 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 62 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 694 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.
Between four hundred and a thousand feet you're heavy, close to the ground and still carrying flap, and speed is the margin holding all three apart. Slow here doesn't feel like anything — the aeroplane climbs, the nose is up, nothing complains — right up until a turn, a gust or a bank tightens the wing's job and the margin is already gone. The fix is rarely "fly faster", it's lowering the nose a degree and letting the speed build before the next thing you do. Pitch buys altitude, speed buys options, and at this height options are the scarcer of the two.

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 six 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 1,526 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,526 m of the 2,146 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 694 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Salerno Costa d'Amalfi Airport, the aircraft began its journey on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 134 kt after a takeoff distance of 738 meters, which accounted for 49% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 17 °C, with a gentle headwind of 4 kt and a crosswind of 1 kt.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a significant distance, increasing its altitude from 1,139 ft to 46,273 ft in just 20 minutes, covering 133 nm. The climb phase was followed by a 29-minute level cruise, during which the aircraft maintained an altitude of 46,273 ft and covered 231 nm. The descent phase began 1 mile south of Cinte Tesino, Italy, and lasted 26 minutes, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 46,240 ft to 6,304 ft, covering 159 nm. The final descent phase started 1 mile north east of Baindt, Germany, and lasted 5 minutes, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 5,958 ft to 2,658 ft, covering 15 nm.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 24 at Friedrichshafen Airport, descending from 2,658 ft to 2,658 ft agl. The landing was executed with a touchdown speed of 108 kt, which was within the target range, and a touchdown rate of -89 fpm, which was excellent. The aircraft touched down 272 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a total landing distance of 1,439 meters, accounting for 77% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey of 563 nm, which had taken 98 minutes and utilized 1,311 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 24 at EDNY Friedrichshafen Airport from the north east was executed with a heading of 240.0° at 4 nm and 1,299 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with the threshold height at 62 ft above ground level being above the target. However, the threshold speed was good at 118 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent.
As the aircraft touched down 272 m beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed of 108 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -89 fpm was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a precise and accurate landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 12 °C and a wind of 2 kt at 44°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment.
The total landing distance of 1,439 m was 77% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating a smooth and controlled rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance of Aircraft C750 was satisfactory, with a score of 93.7%.
