Flight Score
Maintain the centreline
Not the biggest loss in points — the one thing on this flight a check pilot would raise first, and the guide passage for it.
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 2,982 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 625 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 24 at LGRP Diagoras Airport in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,471 m, representing 45 % of the runway, and lifted off at 151 kt. Ambient conditions were 35 °C with a wind of 10 kt from 260°, a 2 kt crosswind component and a 10 kt headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile south-west of LGRP, with the aircraft ascending from 966 ft asl to 11,818 ft asl, an increase of 10,852 ft achieved in 5 minutes while covering 24 nm.
Level cruise began 4 miles south of Symi and was maintained for 3 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 19 nm.
Descent was initiated 11 miles west of Icmeler, descending from 11,979 ft asl to 1,613 ft asl, a loss of 10,366 ft over 9 minutes and a distance of 36 nm.
The final approach to runway 28R at LTFE Milas Bodrum International Airport was flown from the east, on a heading of 287.0° at 4 nm and 1,586 ft agl.
Landing on runway 28R, which is 2,982 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 155 kt. The touchdown point was 208 m beyond the touchdown zone, the speed at touchdown was 143 kt, and the vertical speed was minus 88 fpm. The touchdown location was offset 9.5 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 39 °C with a wind of 13 kt from 240°, a 9 kt crosswind and a 9 kt headwind. The total landing distance recorded was 1,333 m, equal to 45 % of the runway.
Runway rollout showed a slight alignment deviation of 9.6 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 12 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 87 nm, took 27 (units as provided), and consumed 1,152 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 achieved a final score of 93.9 % on a final approach to runway 28R at LTFE Milas Bodrum International Airport, tracking a heading of 287.0 ° from the east at 4 nm and 1,586 ft agl. Local weather was 39 °C with wind 13 kt from 240 °, giving a 9 kt cross-wind component and a 9 kt head-wind component. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high.
At the threshold the runway length was 2,982 m and the threshold height was reported as good. The threshold speed was well above target at 155 kt.
Touchdown occurred 208 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 143 kt, described as a little fast. Touchdown rate was excellent at minus 88 fpm. The aircraft touched down 9.5 m off the centreline and the total landing distance was 1,333 m, representing 45 % of the runway.
During rollout the aircraft remained slightly misaligned by 9.6 m from the centreline.
Focus on reducing the high sink rate in the final 1,000 ft to achieve a stabilised approach, and adjust speed management to bring the touchdown speed closer to the target, which will help keep the touchdown point nearer the intended zone.
