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 9.2 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 163 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Guanacaste Airport in Liberia, Costa Rica. This process took approximately 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 07, with a takeoff distance of 1,518 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 25 knots blowing at an angle of 90 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 24 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of the airport and rising from an altitude of 1,344 feet above sea level to 38,511 feet, an increase of 37,167 feet in 28 minutes, covering a distance of 172 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 4 miles southwest of San Jose de Bocay in Nicaragua. This phase lasted for 258 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 1,790 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile south of Cohocton in the United States, and descended from an altitude of 38,260 feet to 3,077 feet, a decrease of 35,183 feet in 26 minutes, covering a distance of 118 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time starting 2 miles southeast of Milton in Ontario, Canada, and lasting only 2 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles east of Milton, and descended from an altitude of 3,078 feet to 1,827 feet, a decrease of 1,251 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06R at Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 46.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level, and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 2,741 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 124 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 163 meters, and the touchdown speed was 121 knots, which was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate was very heavy at -745 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots blowing at an angle of 119 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,187 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.8 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 2,099 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 321 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 12,428 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed on runway 06R at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.5%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 46.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,271 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 124 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 163 meters, and the touchdown speed was within acceptable limits at 121 knots. However, the touchdown rate was somewhat heavy, registering at -745 feet per minute (fpm). This may indicate that the aircraft could have been slowed down more effectively during the landing roll.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, deviating by 11.7 meters. This could be attributed to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from 119°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,187 meters was within 43% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline, deviating by 11.8 meters. This may indicate that the aircraft could have been aligned more effectively during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was satisfactory, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
