Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 2.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,425 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,072 ft 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 33 at KCHS Charleston International Airport. The takeoff distance was 3,304 feet, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 142 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 57 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 4 knots at 90 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the tailwind was 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KCHS Charleston International Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,072 feet above sea level to 38,942 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,870 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 111 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 3 miles west of KLBT Lumberton Regional Airport. This cruise phase lasted for 18 minutes and covered a distance of 154 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles southeast of McKenney, Virginia. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 39,152 feet above sea level to 4,038 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,113 feet, in 25 minutes and covering a distance of 135 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles southeast of Maryland City and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 1 mile southeast of Burtonsville, Maryland, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 4,030 feet above sea level to 1,435 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,595 feet, in 6 minutes and covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 10 at KBWI Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 94.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,293 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 10, which had a length of 9,425 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 126 knots.
The touchdown point was 692 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 119 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -222 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 52 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 5 knots at 40 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 4,571 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 420 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 81 minutes. The aircraft used 6,326 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at KBWI Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport with a score of 95.3%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 94.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,293 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on runway 10, which has a length of 9,425 feet. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 126 knots, which may have been due to various factors such as wind resistance or the aircraft's weight.
The touchdown point was located 692 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance. However, the touchdown speed of 119 knots was a little fast, indicating that the aircraft may have been able to touch down earlier and with less force. The touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft was able to slow down relatively quickly after touchdown.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway and was able to touch down in the correct position. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 52°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 40°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 4,571 feet was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway after touchdown and was able to come to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to touch down safely and come to a stop within a reasonable distance.
