MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 96 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 96 ft, 51 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,022 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,022 m of the 3,123 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 584 m past the threshold — beyond 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 a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 18 at ENTC Tromsø Airport, Langnes, with a takeoff distance of 892 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Tromsø, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of the airport and reaching an altitude of 32,247 feet above sea level. This climb covered a distance of 104 nautical miles and an altitude increase of 31,222 feet in just 15 minutes. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 8 miles east of Kjopsvik in Nordland Fylke, Norway. This cruise phase lasted for 153 minutes and covered a distance of 1,187 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time starting 8 miles southeast of Swanage in Dorset, England. This climb was much shorter, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles and an altitude increase of 956 feet in just 2 minutes.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 15 miles south of Worth Matravers in Dorset, England. This cruise phase lasted for 80 minutes and covered a distance of 636 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent phase, starting 4 miles northeast of Campo de Besteiros in Distrito de Viseu, Portugal. The descent covered a distance of 116 nautical miles and a decrease in altitude of 31,094 feet in 21 minutes.
The final approach to runway 20 at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport) was made from the north, with a heading of 203.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,292 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 173 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 147 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -243 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 250 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,946 meters, which was 62% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,062 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 279 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 35,955 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport) with a score of 97.6%. The final approach to runway 20 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 203.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,292 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for touchdown. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 150 kt, registering at 151 kt. This minor deviation from the target speed did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The touchdown point was located 173 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 147 kt was within the acceptable range, indicating that the aircraft was properly controlled during the descent. The touchdown rate of -243 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been slowed down more efficiently during the landing roll.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 3 kt from 250°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 2 kt, which did not significantly impact the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 1,946 meters was 62% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly controlled during the landing roll and was able to maintain alignment with the runway centerline.
Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. The minor deviations from the target speed and touchdown point were not significant enough to impact the overall performance of the landing, resulting in a score of 97.6%.
