MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use coordinated aileron input to level the wings and hold bank angle close to wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the initial climb, your average bank angle drifted to 3.8°.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, bank angle near wings-level
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 13 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 13 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 13 ft to touchdown.
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: speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,680 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,680 m of the 2,804 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 715 m 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 to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 29 at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (KMSY). The takeoff distance was 1,514 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 329 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of KMSY, and climbed from an altitude of 1,047 feet above sea level to 34,631 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,584 feet, in 36 minutes and covering a distance of 210 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 12 miles west of Greenville, Alabama, and lasted for 108 minutes, covering a distance of 853 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Huntington, New York, and descended from an altitude of 32,850 feet above sea level to 1,287 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,563 feet, in 30 minutes and covering a distance of 163 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33L at Logan International Airport (KBOS) was made from the southeast, heading 315.0 degrees, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 297 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -40 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 310 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 21 knots. The total landing distance was 1,598 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,234 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 185 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,705 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KBOS Logan International Airport on runway 33L, achieving a score of 96.0%. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 315.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach to the runway was characterized by a threshold height that was above the target, indicating a slightly higher than desired altitude at the point of touchdown. However, the threshold speed was good, reaching 137 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown point was located 297 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 128 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown rate was also perfect, at -40 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of -2°C and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 310°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 21 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance was satisfactory.
The total landing distance was 1,598 meters, which is 57% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 96.0%. The pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were satisfactory, despite the challenging weather conditions.
