MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 90 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.
What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Make one smooth continuous pitch input through the flare rather than chasing the runway with the elevator.
What happened: The flare was pumped, with pitch reversing direction several times on the way down instead of one smooth input.
Watch for: Watch the pitch attitude trend through the flare, aiming for a single steady rise through 5.9° with no reversals.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,642 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 335 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, the aircraft began its taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking 17 minutes to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 31L, the departure roll commenced, and the aircraft lifted off after a takeoff distance of 552 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 85 knots, with a local temperature of 10°C and wind conditions of 6 knots at 10°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile west of the departure point, rising from 1,349 feet above sea level to 11,950 feet in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. This was followed by a 27-minute level cruise, which spanned 115 nautical miles, before the aircraft started its descent overhead Syrovin, Czech Republic. The descent from 12,000 feet to 2,992 feet in 5 minutes covered 20 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off for a brief 6-minute cruise, covering 18 nautical miles, before commencing its final descent from 2,996 feet to 2,136 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27 at Brno-Tuřany Airport, heading 278.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,358 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on a runway length of 2,642 meters, with a threshold height of 71 feet above ground level, which was well above the target. The threshold speed was good at 82 knots, and the touchdown distance was 334 meters, with a touchdown speed of 61 knots. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -418 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 4°C and wind of 18 knots at 340°, resulting in a 16-knot crosswind and an 8-knot headwind. The total flight distance was 175 nautical miles, taking 57 minutes, and the aircraft used 212 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 27 at LKTB Brno-Tuřany Airport from the east was initiated at 4 nautical miles and 1,358 feet above ground level, heading 278.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with the threshold height at 71 feet above ground level being well above the target. This allowed for a stable and controlled descent, culminating in a good threshold speed of 82 knots.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance of 334 meters was within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 61 knots was also good, indicating a well-executed flare. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -418 feet per minute, which may have contributed to a slightly longer rollout. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.2 meters from the centreline, which may have been due to the crosswind component of 16 knots.
The aircraft's performance was affected by the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 4°C and a wind of 18 knots at 340°. The crosswind component of 16 knots and the headwind component of 8 knots may have contributed to the slight misalignment during touchdown. Despite this, the overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, with a score of 83.3%.
