Flight Score
Departure
Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold 2.1° of bank out of the climb.
What happened: The pilot held 2.1° of bank during the climb out, and excess bank like this usually carries a heading drift into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator and heading bug, keeping bank near wings level so heading holds steady.
Arrival
Begin raising the nose earlier, by 11 ft, so the flare has time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
What happened: The flare began late at 7 ft, 4.3 ft below the normal band, and a late flare like this usually leaves too little time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and start the flare in the normal band, around 11 ft.
A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,065 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 437 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Robin DR400 taxied from the parking area to runway 04 at LFLG Aérodrome de Grenoble Le Versoud in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 04, the aircraft used 363 m of runway, representing 41 % of the available length, and lifted off at 50 kt; ambient temperature was 19 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 224°, no cross-wind and a 3 kt tail-wind component.
The first en-route climb began over Le Versoud, rising from 875 ft asl to 1,319 ft asl-a gain of 444 ft-in 1 minute while traversing 2 nm.
A level cruise segment followed over Bernin, lasting 2 minutes and covering 2 nm.
The second climb segment started over Crolles, with altitude increasing from 1,715 ft asl to 2,246 ft asl (530 ft) in 2 minutes and a distance of 2 nm.
Subsequent cruise over Lumbin lasted 6 minutes and spanned 1 nm.
A further climb commenced over Saint-Hilaire, climbing from 2,616 ft asl to 3,235 ft asl (619 ft) over 11 minutes and covering 2 nm.
The next cruise phase over Saint-Pancrasse continued for 21 minutes and covered 29 nm.
Descent began over Chatenay, descending from 3,237 ft asl to 1,563 ft asl-a loss of 1,674 ft-in 2 minutes while traveling 3 nm.
Final approach to runway 09 at LFLS Grenoble-Isère Airport involved a descent from 497 ft agl to -13 ft agl in 129 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 09 at LFLS, whose length is 3,065 m, was achieved with a threshold speed of 66 kt; touchdown occurred at 435 m from the threshold at 58 kt and a vertical rate of minus 31 fpm. Local weather reported a temperature of 18 °C, wind 9 kt from 90°, a 9 kt head-wind and no cross-wind.
The rollout distance measured 661 m, equivalent to 22 % of the runway, and alignment during rollout was perfect.
Taxi-in from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 45 nm, took 43 minutes, and consumed 8 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 09 at LFLS Grenoble-Isère Airport was conducted with a descent from 497 ft agl to -13 ft agl over 129 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
At threshold the aircraft presented a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was slightly below target at 66 kt.
Touchdown occurred 435 m down the runway at a speed of 58 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 31 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 661 m, representing 22 % of the 3,065 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
Maintain the current technique but fine-tune speed control to achieve the exact target threshold speed, ensuring the approach remains within the stabilisation criteria.
