MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.
What happened: The aircraft tracked 4.6 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 4°, into the first climb.
Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final so threshold speed settles at 141 kt instead of carrying it into the flare.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 157 kt, well above the 141 kt target speed, and that excess speed was still showing at touchdown. Crossing the threshold fast usually carries straight through to a fast touchdown.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 141 kt on short final.
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 1,728 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,728 m of the 2,512 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 603 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Aircraft departed from Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport, runway 28, with a takeoff distance of 1,655 meters, utilizing 55% of the available runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 162 knots, with a local temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and wind conditions of 7 knots at 249 degrees, resulting in a 4-knot crosswind and a 6-knot headwind. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, commencing 1 mile west of the departure airport and reaching a maximum altitude of 32,003 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,883 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 88 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase started 10 miles north of Denia, Spain, and lasted for 108 minutes, covering a distance of 723 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, initiated overhead the Cambrai-Épinoy Air Base in France, and descended from 31,997 feet to 1,403 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,594 feet in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 151 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 21 at Eindhoven Airport was conducted from the northeast, with a heading of 215.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,325 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway, with a touchdown point 191 meters beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 150 knots, and a touchdown rate of -203 feet per minute.
The total landing distance was 1,651 meters, utilizing 66% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 972 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 170 minutes, and the aircraft utilized 6,163 kilograms of fuel. The local weather conditions at Eindhoven Airport were a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and wind conditions of 9 knots at 180 degrees, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and an 8-knot headwind.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 21 at EHEH Eindhoven Airport, demonstrating a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was above the target, registering 157 kt, which may have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed of 150 kt. The aircraft's touchdown point was 191 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. The touchdown rate of -203 fpm was fair, suggesting a moderate deceleration upon touchdown.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating precise control during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10 °C and wind at 9 kt from 180 °, resulted in a crosswind of 5 kt and a headwind of 8 kt. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing. The aircraft's ability to maintain centerline alignment during the rollout phase was perfect, showcasing the pilot's skill and control.
The total landing distance of 1,651 meters was 66% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 96.4%. While there were some areas for improvement, such as the threshold speed and touchdown speed, the pilot's ability to maintain control and alignment during the approach and rollout phases was commendable.
