MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Ease the back pressure on the yoke after rotation so the pitch change is smoother and g force stays lower.
What happened: During the initial climb the average g force reached 1.3 g, a high value for that phase.
Watch for: G meter: smooth, steady value in the normal climb band
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final so speed is back to 116 kt before the gate, not after it.
What happened: Speed control was already loose at the stabilisation gate, and this flight crossed the threshold at 136 kt against a target of 116 kt, 20 kt fast. Carrying excess speed into the gate like this usually carries straight through to a fast threshold crossing.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 116 kt by the gate and held to 116 kt at the threshold.
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 1,000 ft gate: speed 43 kt FAST on the reference speed of 116 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 35 kt FAST on the reference speed of 116 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 2,713 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 421 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A319 taxied from the parking area to the departure runway in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm before lining up for take-off.
The aircraft departed from runway 33 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, accelerating along a take-off roll of 511 m which represented 16 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 140 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 23 °C, wind from 310° at 16 kt with a 6 kt cross-wind component and a 15 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced overhead the Hamburg airport, climbing from 1,023 ft asl to 38,009 ft asl - a gain of 36,986 ft - in 14 minutes while covering 92 nm.
The first cruise segment began 4 mi east of Aabenraa, Denmark, and was maintained for 34 minutes during which the aircraft flew 251 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 6 mi east of Oltedal, Norway, with the flight descending from 37,982 ft asl to 13,007 ft asl, a loss of 24,976 ft, in 13 minutes while covering 89 nm.
A second level cruise was initiated 3 mi north-west of Eikelandsosen, Norway, lasting 6 minutes and encompassing 36 nm.
The next descent began 3 mi south-east of Dale, Norway, dropping from 12,845 ft asl to 7,072 ft asl - a reduction of 5,773 ft - in 3 minutes over a distance of 15 nm.
A brief cruise followed 3 mi north of Eikelandsosen, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nm.
A further descent started 2 mi south of Eikelandsosen, with the aircraft descending from 7,007 ft asl to 1,470 ft asl, a loss of 5,538 ft, in 6 minutes while traveling 21 nm.
Final approach to runway 35 at ENBR Bergen Airport, Flesland, was conducted from the south on a heading of 351.0° at 4 nm and 1,286 ft agl.
Landing on runway 35 was executed on a runway 2,713 m long; the threshold speed was recorded at 137 kt. Touchdown occurred 420 m down the runway at 125 kt with a vertical speed of minus 172 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather at the time was 12 °C with wind from 300° at 5 kt, a 4 kt cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind. The total landing distance measured 1,323 m, representing 49 % of the runway length.
Rollout proceeded with very good alignment and the aircraft decelerated along the remaining runway distance after touchdown.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm before shutdown.
In total the flight covered 519 nm, required 95 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2,848 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A319 approached runway 35 at ENBR Bergen Airport from the south on a heading of 351.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,286 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
During the threshold and flare segment the threshold speed was too high at 137 kt, although the threshold height was reported as good.
Touchdown occurred 420 m down the runway at a speed of 125 kt, which was described as fast, with a touchdown rate of minus 172 fpm that was good and runway touchdown alignment perfect. The total landing distance was 1,323 m, representing 49 % of the 2,713 m runway.
Rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft completed the landing under local conditions of temperature 12 °C, wind 5 kt at 300 °, crosswind 4 kt and headwind 3 kt.
Focus on achieving the correct threshold speed and moderating touchdown speed to be closer to the target VREF, which will further improve the landing margin. Maintaining the excellent alignment and rate already demonstrated will keep the overall performance high.
