MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 7.2°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 113 fpm.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 327 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 above 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 3,013 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 528 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 16 at VYNT Namtu Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,184 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 23°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot at 251 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 0 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of VYNT Namtu Airport and continued for 45 minutes, covering a distance of 340 nautical miles. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,350 feet above sea level to 38,819 feet, an increase of 37,469 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 8 miles northwest of VYDW Dawei Airport. This phase lasted for 32 minutes and covered a distance of 765 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 5 miles north of WIME Aek Godang Airport. The descent from 38,618 feet to 1,292 feet took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 151 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33 at WIEE Minangkabau Intl was made from the southeast, heading 335.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,260 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 33 was successful, with a touchdown point 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, which was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was good at -198 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 24°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot at 0 degrees. The crosswind was 0 knots, while the headwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,038 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,265 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 100 minutes. The aircraft used 8,003 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at WIEE Minangkabau Intl airport, with a final approach score of 99.0%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southeast, heading 335.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot executed a smooth landing on runway 33, which has a length of 3,013 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 138 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's control and precision.
However, the touchdown point was 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was a bit faster than ideal, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -198 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 1 knot at 0°. There was no crosswind, and a headwind of 1 knot was present, which did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance was 1,038 meters, which is 34% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot executed a smooth and controlled approach. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown point and speed, which may be addressed in future training or evaluation.
