MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 90 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 107 kt against a rotation target of 90 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 90 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 7.7 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 7.7 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.
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: off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline and speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,584 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 456 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 13 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a TBM 850, then departed from runway 33L at KBOS Logan International Airport. The takeoff distance was 698 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 107 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 309 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 9 knots and a crosswind of 1 knot. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 8,067 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,021 feet from the initial altitude of 1,046 feet, in just 6 minutes and covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The enroute climb started overhead Chelsea, Massachusetts, and continued until the aircraft reached a level cruise altitude. The level cruise started 1 mile southwest of the MA2 Merrimack Valley Seaplane Base in Methuen, Massachusetts, and lasted for 17 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from an altitude of 7,945 feet above sea level to 801 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,144 feet, in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 36 at KLEB Lebanon Municipal Airport was made from the south, heading 350 degrees at an altitude of 240 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway.
The landing on runway 36 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 455 meters, which is 42% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 70 knots, which is a little fast, but the touchdown rate was good at -190 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.8 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 160 degrees, resulting in a tailwind of 4 knots and a crosswind of 1 knot.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 105 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 45 minutes. The aircraft used 117 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The TBM 850 aircraft successfully landed at KLEB Lebanon Municipal Airport, achieving a score of 96.8%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 350.0° at 1 nautical mile and 240 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 36, which has a length of 1,584 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed of 75 kt, suggesting that the pilot may have been a bit aggressive in their approach. The touchdown distance of 455 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing.
The touchdown speed of 70 kt was slightly faster than the target speed, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -190 feet per minute (fpm) was reported as good, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.8 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach. However, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 4 kt at 160°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the tailwind component was 4 kt.
The total landing distance of 661 meters was 42% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control over the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing phases.
