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 14 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 48 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 48 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 48 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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,220 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,220 m of the 3,347 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 787 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, taking 11 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 24, with a takeoff distance of 1,711 meters, which was 43% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 154 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 13°C temperature and a wind speed of 28 knots at 239 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, but the headwind was 28 knots, which would have a significant impact on the flight's performance. The enroute climb started overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 2,181 feet above sea level to 25,428 feet, an increase of 23,247 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 40 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 1 mile east of Mouzay, France, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. However, the aircraft soon began another climb, this time from 25,627 feet to 35,957 feet, an increase of 10,330 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 2 miles north of Les Grandes-Chapelles, France, and lasted for a significant 139 minutes, covering an impressive 992 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 3 miles northwest of Sanlucar de Barrameda, Spain. The descent from 36,385 feet to 1,969 feet took just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 68 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began again 1 mile southwest of La Campana, Spain, and lasted for 8 minutes, covering 22 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at Sevilla Airport took place from the east, with the aircraft heading 270 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,297 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway length of 3,347 meters, with the threshold height well above the target and the threshold speed also well above the target at 146 knots.
The touchdown point was 322 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 132 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -123 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 22°C temperature and a wind speed of 6 knots at 229 degrees, with a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The total landing distance was 2,090 meters, which was 62% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took just 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 1,208 nautical miles, taking 193 minutes and consuming 6,705 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at LEZL Sevilla Airport, achieving an overall score of 85.5%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,297 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 27, which has a length of 3,347 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 322 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was slightly above the target speed, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed during the approach. The touchdown rate of -123 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The threshold height at 76 feet agl was well above the target, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a safe altitude during the approach. However, the threshold speed of 146 knots was significantly above the target, indicating that the pilot may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed during the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 6 knots at 229°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 4 knots, indicating a relatively calm wind environment. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.4 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good.
The total landing distance of 2,090 meters was 62% of the runway length, indicating a relatively long landing distance. However, this may be due to the aircraft's speed and altitude at the time of touchdown, rather than any issues with the approach or landing technique. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, such as reducing the touchdown speed and improving the touchdown point accuracy.
