Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 12°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,652 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 399 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 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Embraer E175, then departed from runway 30R at the Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (KMSP). The takeoff distance was 1,133 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 141 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 12 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of KMSP, rising from an altitude of 1,885 feet above sea level to 33,379 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,494 feet, in 15 minutes and covering 102 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 5 miles northwest of Ironton, Minnesota. This phase lasted for 10 minutes and covered 135 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 4 miles northwest of the Cox-Coyour Memorial Field Roosevelt airport and lasted for 17 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 33,387 feet above sea level to 2,055 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,332 feet, and covered 103 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31 at the Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) was made from the southeast, heading 319.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 31 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 401 meters, which was good, and a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -202 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 16 knots. The total landing distance was 1,360 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 348 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 50 minutes. The aircraft used 1,360 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Embraer E175 aircraft successfully landed at Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) with a score of 98.5%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 319.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 31, which has a length of 2,652 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 138 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for the landing.
The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits, measuring 401 meters. However, the touchdown speed was slightly faster than desired, coming in at 133 knots. This may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate, which was reported as fair at -202 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.6 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 16 knots from 320°. This resulted in a headwind component of 16 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. The crosswind component was negligible, with a speed of 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,360 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a straight and stable path after touchdown.
Overall, the Embraer E175 aircraft performed a successful landing at CYWG, with a score of 98.5%. While there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway alignment, the aircraft was able to touch down and stop within a reasonable distance, and the pilot was able to maintain a stable and controlled rollout.
