MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 5.9 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 14 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 14 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 14 ft to touchdown.
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 2,535 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,535 m of the 3,996 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 667 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight involved a Boeing 737-800 aircraft, departing from SKBO El Dorado International Airport. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The takeoff roll began on runway 32R, covering 70% of the available distance of 2,640 meters. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 159 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered favorable local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 2 knots at an angle of 49 °. The crosswind was 2 knots and the headwind was 0 knots. The enroute climb commenced 2 miles east of Funza, Colombia, and reached a maximum altitude of 33,824 feet above sea level. During this phase, the aircraft ascended by 24,388 feet in 28 minutes, covering a distance of 201 nautical miles.
After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 20 miles southeast of La Macarena Airport in Colombia. This cruising segment lasted for 152 minutes and covered a distance of 1,141 nautical miles. Following the cruise, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 11 miles southeast of Chulumani, Bolivia. The descent phase saw the aircraft decrease in altitude from 34,644 feet to 14,162 feet, covering a distance of 53 nautical miles in 17 minutes.
The final approach to runway 10 at SLLP El Alto International Airport involved a heading of 92.0 ° from the west at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 938 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,996 meters, and the threshold speed was suitable at 144 knots. However, the aircraft touched down slightly fast at a speed of 138 knots. The touchdown rate was still satisfactory at 211 feet per minute.
The total landing distance was 2,465 meters, making up 62% of the available runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the taxiing process from the runway to the parking area took approximately 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
In summary, the overall distance covered during the flight was 1,405 nautical miles, taking 207 minutes and using approximately 9,779 kilograms of fuel.
A Boeing 737-800 successfully landed at SLLP El Alto International Airport, showcasing an excellent display of flying skills and adherence to safety protocols. The aircraft made its final approach to runway 10 from the west, aligning itself perfectly with the desired heading of 92.0° at an altitude of 938 feet above ground level (agl), which is approximately 4 nautical miles (nm) from the airport. This precise navigation set up the crew for a smooth and controlled approach.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good threshold height and speed, hitting the ground at a speed of 144 knots (kt). However, the touchdown point was 262 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, suggesting that the aircraft may have landed slightly further down the runway than intended. The touchdown speed, although a bit fast at 138 kt, was still within the acceptable limits. Nevertheless, the crew's ability to maintain control and execute a safe landing cannot be overstated.
The actual runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the crew's control over the aircraft's descent paid off. They successfully navigated the challenging local weather conditions, with a temperature of 7 °C and a gentle headwind of 2 kt at 100 °. The lack of crosswind (0 kt) minimized any potential issues with runway alignment during the rollout. Runway rollout alignment was also reported to be very good, further emphasizing the crew's proficiency and attention to detail.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 2,465 meters, which is approximately 62% of the available runway length of 3,996 meters. This distance represents an impressive demonstration of the crew's ability to control the aircraft and minimize the amount of time spent on the runway. All in all, the landing scores an impressive 95.2%, reflecting the crew's skill and adherence to safety procedures.
