MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Stop the rotation once the sink is arrested at 6.9 ft, holding the normal landing attitude instead of continuing to pull back.
What happened: The flare pitch reached 2.2°, well above this type's ground attitude, and touchdown followed at a sink rate of 284 fpm. Over-rotating the flare like this usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: hold the normal landing attitude once sink is arrested at 6.9 ft.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,927 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,927 m of the 4,065 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 504 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Brussels Airport, the Airbus A319 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As it rolled down runway 07R, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 136 knots, clearing the ground at a distance of 1,621 meters, which represented 53% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22°C, a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 150°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and a 1-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it passed over Kortenberg, Flanders, Belgium, and continued to ascend to 35,000 feet above sea level, a gain of 33,836 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 79 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was punctuated by several level cruises, including a 2-minute period at 35,009 feet above sea level, 2 miles north of Huldange, Luxembourg, and a 14-minute cruise at 36,532 feet above sea level, 2 miles east of Kirchweiler, Germany. The aircraft then began its descent, passing over Hopfingen, Germany, and eventually landing on runway 08R at Munich Airport, a distance of 1,846 meters, which represented 46% of the runway's length. The landing was characterized by a touchdown speed of 108 knots and a touchdown rate of -280 feet per minute.
The total flight distance was 387 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 2,654 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which lasted 78 minutes. The taxiing time from the runway to the parking area was 7 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 31°, resulting in a 1-knot crosswind and a 0-knot headwind. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.4 meters, but the runway rollout alignment was very good.
The final approach to runway 08R at EDDM Munich Airport from the west was conducted at a heading of 83.0°, commencing at 4 nautical miles from the threshold and 1,281 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 61 feet above ground level, which was above the target. The threshold speed was good, achieved at 116 knots, indicating a well-executed approach.
The aircraft touched down 88 meters beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 108 knots, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate of -280 feet per minute was slightly higher than desired, indicating a slightly steeper descent than intended. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.4 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path.
The total landing distance of 1,846 meters was 46% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 93.3%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 31°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
