MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 1.4°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 155 fpm.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 297 fpm.
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,689 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 734 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 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 25 at the Falcone–Borsellino Airport in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. The takeoff distance was 1,243 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 156 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots at 280 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb started shortly after departure, with the aircraft ascending from 991 feet above sea level to 38,799 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,808 feet in 42 minutes, covering a distance of 324 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 21 miles southwest of Komiza, Croatia, and lasted for 120 minutes, covering a distance of 1,027 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 20 miles southwest of Belyy, Russia, and descended from 39,003 feet above sea level to 2,513 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,490 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 156 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 3 miles northwest of Dedovsk, Russia, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 06R at Sheremetyevo International Airport in Moscow, Russia, was made from the west, with the aircraft heading at 75.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,292 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 06R was successful, with the touchdown point being 311 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -130 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 310 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the tailwind was 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,255 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,521 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 193 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,702 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at UUEE Sheremetyevo International Airport, achieving a high score of 95.5%. The final approach to runway 06R was conducted from the west, with a heading of 75.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,292 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 140 knots. Despite this, the touchdown point was 311 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -130 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -11°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 310°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the tailwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing, as the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance of 1,255 meters was 34% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to maintain a high level of control and stability throughout the landing process. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and stability throughout the process.
