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 34 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 43 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 43 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 43 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline and speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,147 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,147 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 800 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 31R at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The Boeing 737-800 aircraft took off after covering 35% of the 1,309-meter runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 162 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 2,935 feet above sea level (asl) after ascending 1,439 feet in just one minute. This climb phase covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, first lasting five minutes and covering 14 nautical miles, and then lasting one minute and covering 4 nautical miles, both times south of the town of Csomor and Monor, respectively.
The final approach to runway 31R at LHBP was initiated from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 312.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the airport. The landing was executed with a threshold height well above the target, and a threshold speed slightly below the target at 137 knots. The touchdown point was 382 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -140 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 340 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 9 knots. The total landing distance was 2,064 meters, which accounted for 56% of the 3,701-meter runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline.
The flight ultimately covered a total distance of 28 nautical miles, taking 14 minutes to complete, and consumed 929 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, with a score of 87.3%. The final approach to runway 31R was initiated from the south east, heading 312.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,222 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 31R, which has a length of 3,701 meters. The threshold height at 73 feet agl was found to be well above the target, indicating a safe margin for the aircraft to touch down. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 137 knots, which may require some adjustments in the approach procedure.
The touchdown point was located 382 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance considering the runway length. The touchdown speed of 122 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -140 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a critical factor in ensuring a safe landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from 340°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the landing, and the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach.
The total landing distance was 2,064 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating a well-executed approach and landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centreline, which may require some adjustments in the post-landing procedures.
Overall, the landing was successful, with a score of 87.3%. While there were some minor deviations from the target values, the aircraft was able to maintain a safe and controlled approach and landing.
