MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 11 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 98 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 98 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 1,026 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.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,280 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and speed 10 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 144 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,026 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,026 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Warsaw Chopin Airport, the Boeing 737-MAX8 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As it reached the runway threshold, the aircraft initiated its departure roll on runway 15, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 151 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,448 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway, was a testament to the aircraft's efficient performance in the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle tailwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,331 feet above sea level to 35,012 feet, a vertical increase of 33,682 feet in just 18 minutes and covering a distance of 127 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a prolonged enroute level cruise, which lasted 171 minutes and spanned 1,391 nautical miles. The aircraft's efficient fuel management allowed it to maintain a steady speed and altitude, minimizing fuel consumption. As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its descent, initially from 34,909 feet to 13,980 feet in 9 minutes and covering 71 nautical miles. The subsequent level cruise phases, which lasted between 3 and 7 minutes, were interspersed with further descent phases, ultimately leading the aircraft to its final approach to runway 34 at Heydar Aliyev International Airport.
The final approach was executed from the south, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 347.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,261 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down 593 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -301 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.4 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,363 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway, was a testament to the aircraft's efficient performance. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance of 1,703 nautical miles was achieved in 236 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 8,905 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 touched down on runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, with a threshold height significantly above the target at 98 ft agl. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold speed of 143 kt, which met the expected standards. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 129 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was firm at -301 fpm, indicating a controlled touchdown.
However, the touchdown point was located 593 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. The runway touchdown position was also misaligned by 10.4 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the over-run. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14 °C and a headwind of 18 kt, may have played a role in the aircraft's performance. The total landing distance of 1,363 m was 34% of the runway length, which was within the acceptable range.
The rollout phase was also marked by a slight misalignment from the centreline, with a deviation of 22.0 m. Despite this, the aircraft was able to maintain control and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 73.0%. While there were some minor issues with alignment and over-run, the aircraft's speed and touchdown rate were well within the acceptable range.
