MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 26 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 44 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 44 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 44 ft to touchdown.
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 2,202 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,202 m of the 3,989 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,044 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 24 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport. The Airbus A321 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,158 meters, which was 29% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 149 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 180°.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it reached an altitude of 2,250 feet above sea level and then continued to climb to 3,853 feet, an increase of 1,603 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 1 mile east of Luxembourg and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 4,937 feet to 6,822 feet, an increase of 1,885 feet in 2 minutes, covering 6 nautical miles. The climb started 1 mile east of Heisdorf. After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its descent, starting 1 mile west of Biwer. The descent from 7,304 feet to 2,467 feet, a decrease of 4,837 feet in 5 minutes, covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport was made from the north-east, heading 240.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 24, which had a length of 3,989 meters. The threshold height at 101 feet above ground level was excessively over target, but the threshold speed was slightly above target at 139 knots.
The touchdown point was 618 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 125 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -90 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions during landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 170°.
The total landing distance was 2,112 meters, which was 53% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 19 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 13 minutes. The aircraft used -1,350 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (ELLX) on runway 24. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 240.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 82.6%.
The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with a threshold height that was excessively over the target at 101 feet agl. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 139 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal speed. The touchdown point was 618 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -90 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 170°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The aircraft's performance in these conditions was satisfactory, with a runway touchdown alignment that was perfect.
The total landing distance of 2,112 meters was 53% of the runway length, indicating a relatively long landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the optimal performance.
