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 4° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 11° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up, sink rate above what the glideslope needed, off the runway's 3° glideslope and speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up, sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,995 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,814 ft 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 area to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 34 at PHBK Barking Sands Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,084 feet, which accounted for 36% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 138 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 82°F and a wind speed of 17 knots at 340°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 16 knots. After departing from PHBK, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and continued to an altitude of 20,500 feet above sea level. This climb covered a distance of 41 nautical miles and took 7 minutes, with an increase in altitude of 19,573 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 13 miles southeast of PHLI Lihue Airport. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 29 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 27 miles west of Makaha and continued to an altitude of 1,862 feet above sea level. This descent covered a distance of 47 nautical miles and took 8 minutes, with a decrease in altitude of 19,143 feet.
The final approach to runway 04R at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 53.0°. The aircraft was at an altitude of 1,758 feet above ground level and 3 nautical miles from the runway. The local weather conditions at this point were a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 15 knots at 33°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 14 knots.
The aircraft landed on runway 04R, with a touchdown point 352 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 116 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown rate was hard at -464 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 20 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 2,982 feet, which accounted for 33% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 127 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 34 minutes. The aircraft used 2 pounds of fuel during the flight.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed on runway 04R at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport, but the landing was not without some minor issues. The aircraft's final approach was from the southwest, heading 53.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,758 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was scored at 81.7%, indicating a good overall performance.
One of the notable issues during the landing was the threshold height, which was significantly above the target at 88 feet agl. This could have been due to various factors such as the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to extend the landing. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 126 knots, which is still within a safe range for landing.
The touchdown point was 352 feet beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the aircraft landed slightly short of the intended spot. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 116 knots, which could have contributed to the hard touchdown rate of -464 feet per minute (fpm). A hard touchdown rate can be a concern as it may put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and other components.
In terms of runway alignment, the aircraft was slightly misaligned by 20 feet from the centerline, which is a minor issue. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 15 knots at 33°. The crosswind was minimal at 5 knots, while the headwind was 14 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable. Overall, while there were some minor issues during the landing, the aircraft C750 performed well, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills.
