Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 1.4° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 8.9° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
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.

Side view — the last 2,069 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,069 m of the 3,661 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 484 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 to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 17R at KDEN Denver International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,813 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles south of KDEN Denver International Airport, rising from an altitude of 6,454 feet above sea level to 38,230 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,776 feet, in 20 minutes and covering 110 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 20 miles southwest of 5CO8 Pleasant Valley Airport Oak Creek, Colorado. This phase lasted for 20 minutes and covered 132 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 6 miles southeast of Myton, Utah, descending from 38,415 feet above sea level to 11,405 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,010 feet, in 20 minutes and covering 104 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another level cruise phase 2 miles north of Magna, Utah, which lasted for 7 minutes and covered 27 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Riverdale, Utah, where the aircraft descended from 10,885 feet above sea level to 5,503 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,382 feet, in 5 minutes and covering 19 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16L at KSLC Salt Lake City International Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 175.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,264 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 16L, which had a length of 3,661 meters. The threshold height at 64 feet above ground level was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 140 knots.
The touchdown point was 73 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 137 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -355 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius.
The total landing distance was 1,993 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 400 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 87 minutes. The aircraft used 3,493 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Salt Lake City International Airport (KSLC) on runway 16L. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 175.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,264 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course and speed throughout the approach, ultimately touching down on the runway.
The touchdown point was located 73 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the recommended area. However, the touchdown speed of 137 knots was a bit higher than the ideal speed, indicating that the pilot may have been slightly aggressive in the landing. The touchdown rate of -355 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 0°C, which may have affected the aircraft's performance. Despite this, the pilot managed to maintain perfect runway touchdown alignment, ensuring a smooth and stable landing.
The total landing distance of 1,993 meters was 54% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with a score of 93.4% indicating a high level of proficiency.
