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 0.1°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Lifted off at 129 kt with 7.2° of pitch.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 965 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 2,064 m of runway left; then climbing at 80 fpm on average to 965 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 2,993 m runway.
Rolled from 33 m in, drifted 2.2 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 7 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 23 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
When the approach was stable
Every check met from 3.4 to 1.1 nm, then not again: slow from 1.1 nm to the threshold.
Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.
The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.
Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.
Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 60 ft below the slope.
Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.
Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 26× larger than distances along the final.
Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 14 m off the centreline.
Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.
Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 58 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 35 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Inside the speed band from 4 nm to 1.1 nm, then slow to the threshold (up to −23 kt).
Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
Very good landing flare
5 kt across from the left, which takes about 3° of crab to hold the centreline at 95 kt. Touched down with 3° of it still on, wings level.
Wind 010° at 9 kt · 7 kt head · 5 kt across
The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 33 ft, 17 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 556 m in, 251 m past the ideal 305 m.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 520 fpm at 34 ft to 110 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 4.1° on the way down.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,561 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 6.7 m left of the centreline and drifted to 11 m left on the rollout, back to 3.2 m left by the end.
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
Touched down 556 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.12 G arrival bounced.
The rest of the report
Departing from EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport, the aircraft began its journey on runway 24R, taking off with a distance of 725 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 129 knots, with a local temperature of 5°C and a wind of 12 knots at 300 degrees. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it passed through various phases of flight, including a rapid ascent from 1,189 feet to 4,975 feet in just one minute, covering a distance of four nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and cruised for two minutes, covering seven nautical miles, before initiating another climb to 41,856 feet, an increase of 36,863 feet in 24 minutes. The aircraft continued to cruise at this altitude for 45 minutes, covering 463 nautical miles. As it approached its destination, the aircraft began its descent, passing through various levels of cruise and descent phases, including a significant descent from 43,004 feet to 17,056 feet in nine minutes.
The aircraft finally began its final approach to runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, touching down 271 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 95 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -62 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.7 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,426 meters, accounting for 56% of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile in five minutes. The total flight distance was 783 nautical miles, taking 112 minutes and consuming 275 kilograms of fuel.
