MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 1.6° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 3.4° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 218 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 94 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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: no landing flap set.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,329 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 440 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a TBM 850, then departed from runway 18 at KLEB Lebanon Municipal Airport. The takeoff distance was 610 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 101 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles east of North Hartland, Vermont, and ascended from an altitude of 1,659 feet above sea level to 6,974 feet above sea level, an increase of 5,315 feet, in 4 minutes and covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles southwest of Springfield, New Hampshire, and lasted for 14 minutes, covering a distance of 55 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 1 mile southwest of Atkinson, New Hampshire, and the aircraft descended from 6,766 feet above sea level to 1,271 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,495 feet, in 7 minutes and covering a distance of 25 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport was made from the north, heading 200 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,243 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 22L was characterized by a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was too high at 81 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 439 meters, and the touchdown speed was 77 knots, which was considered fast. The touchdown rate was good at -154 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 19 knots from a direction of 240 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 14 knots. The total landing distance was 602 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 98 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 36 minutes. The aircraft used a total of -127 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The TBM 850 aircraft successfully landed on runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport, achieving a score of 94.9%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 200.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,243 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 439 meters, which is considered good.
However, there were some areas for improvement during the landing. The threshold speed was too high at 81 knots, which is above the recommended speed. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 77 knots was faster than recommended, resulting in a higher touchdown rate of -154 feet per minute (fpm), which is still considered good. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the crosswind or pilot error.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 31°C and wind speeds of 19 knots at 240°. The crosswind component was 12 knots, while the headwind component was 14 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position.
After touchdown, the aircraft's rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to the pilot's difficulty in controlling the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase. Despite these minor issues, the overall landing performance of the TBM 850 was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 602 meters, which is only 26% of the runway length.
Overall, the landing of the TBM 850 on runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport was successful, with a score of 94.9%. While there were some areas for improvement, the aircraft's performance was generally satisfactory, and the pilot demonstrated good control and handling skills during the landing.
