Flight Score
Departure
Use smooth aileron to roll the wings level in the first climb segment, holding bank angle near wings-level instead of letting it build to 4.6°.
What happened: The wings held 4.6° of bank through the first climb segment and had drifted to 6.1° by the second - this early wing-level drift usually carries through into a larger bank excursion later in the climb.
Watch for: Watch the attitude indicator's bank pointer and keep it at wings level throughout 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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,919 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,919 m of the 2,766 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 434 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 area to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 15 at EGBB Birmingham International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 543 meters, which accounted for 23% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 129 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 190 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 13 knots and a headwind of 13 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead EGBB Birmingham International Airport and involved a climb from 1,329 feet above sea level to 29,578 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,248 feet in 10 minutes and covering a distance of 26 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 3 miles north of Great Haywood in Staffordshire, England, and lasted for 10 minutes, covering a distance of 82 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 24 miles north of Llandudno in Wales, and involved a descent from 29,355 feet above sea level to 2,112 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,243 feet in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 72 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which started 2 miles north of Portavogie in Northern Ireland and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles. The final descent began 2 miles south of Ballyclare in Northern Ireland, and involved a descent from 2,073 feet above sea level to 1,562 feet above sea level, a decrease of 511 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at EGAA Belfast International Airport was made from the north-east, with a heading of 245.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,314 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 2,766 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 125 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 432 meters, but the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -316 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 220 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,830 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 216 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 52 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 804 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at EGAA Belfast International Airport, achieving a score of 98.0%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 245.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,314 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 125 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly faster than expected, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -316 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.4 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 17 knots from a direction of 220°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 15 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft's landing distance of 1,830 meters was within 66% of the available runway length of 2,766 meters.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing for a stable and controlled deceleration. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
