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 9.1 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 120 m past the target, landing at 577 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,740 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,740 m of the 3,497 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 577 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL), the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 23L, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 14 °C, with a gentle wind of 5 kt blowing from 312°. The aircraft's takeoff distance of 1,359 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway, was achieved at a liftoff speed of 164 kt.
As the aircraft departed Düsseldorf, it initiated its enroute climb, which began overhead the airport and reached an altitude of 9,004 ft asl in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with the aircraft rising by 7,918 ft. The enroute level cruise phase followed, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude for various periods, including a 9-minute cruise 1 mile north of Bergheim and a 3-minute cruise overhead Eckfeld. The aircraft also underwent several descent phases, including a 2-minute descent from 9,008 ft asl to 8,031 ft asl, and a 3-minute descent from 5,625 ft asl to 2,978 ft asl.
The Airbus A320 finally began its final approach to runway 03 at Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (EDFH), descending from 2,978 ft asl to touch down on the runway at a speed of 133 kt. The touchdown point was 163 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the aircraft's touchdown rate was good at -186 fpm. The total landing distance of 1,661 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway, was achieved with a perfect runway rollout alignment. Following a 2-minute taxi to the parking area, the aircraft completed its journey, having covered a total distance of 121 nautical miles and consumed 1,278 kg of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 03 at EDFH Frankfurt-Hahn Airport with a good threshold height, allowing for a smooth transition from the approach to the touchdown phase. The threshold speed of 140 kt was well within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown point was 163 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, did not compromise the overall safety of the landing.
The touchdown speed of 133 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -186 fpm was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 8 °C and a gentle headwind of 4 kt, contributed to a stable approach and landing. The crosswind component of 4 kt was minimal, further reducing the risk of deviation from the intended flight path.
The total landing distance of 1,661 m was 52% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range for an Airbus A320. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed well, with a score of 98.4% reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot.
