MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 125 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 139 kt against a rotation target of 125 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 125 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 six 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 3,570 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 71 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 04L, with a takeoff distance of 645 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 139 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, rising from 772 feet above sea level to 29,386 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,613 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 59 nautical miles. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 20°.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles south east of Ceillac, France, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Bramans, France, descending from 29,373 feet above sea level to 14,824 feet above sea level, a decrease of 14,549 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 41 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 1 mile south west of Combloux, France, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Bonne, France, descending from 14,791 feet above sea level to 5,902 feet above sea level, a decrease of 8,889 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started once more, this time overhead Marlioz, France, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Challonges, France, descending from 5,924 feet above sea level to 2,667 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,257 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 04 at Geneva Cointrin International Airport was made from the south west, heading 45.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,268 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 04, which has a length of 3,570 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 122 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 70 meters, but the touchdown speed was fast at 121 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -337 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.6 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 352°.
The total landing distance was 982 meters, which is 27% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.3 meters from the centreline. Taxiing to the parking from the runway took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 197 nautical miles, taking 43 minutes, and the aircraft used 658 kilograms of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at LSGG Geneva Cointrin International Airport, achieving a score of 93.9%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 45.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 04, which has a length of 3,570 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 122 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 70 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly faster than desired, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -337 feet per minute (fpm). This may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-center by 11.6 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 352°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 2 knots, indicating a relatively calm environment. The total landing distance of 982 meters was within 27% of the runway length, which is a reasonable margin.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-center by 11.3 meters from the centerline. This may be attributed to the firm touchdown rate and the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position. Overall, the landing was executed well, with the aircraft touching down safely and within the desired parameters. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and rollout alignment.
