MY FS FLIGHTS
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 4.8°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 22 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 22 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 22 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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,440 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 483 m touchdown sits inside 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 approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Carenado CT210N, then departed from runway 32 at KMQY Smyrna Airport. The takeoff distance was 596 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 76 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile northwest of KMQY Smyrna Airport. The climb began at an altitude of 1,503 feet above sea level and reached 2,020 feet above sea level, an increase of 517 feet, in less than 1 minute and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles northeast of La Vergne, Tennessee, and lasted for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 20L at KBNA Nashville International Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 197.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,194 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 20L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 481 meters, which was 32% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 69 knots, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -39 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 4 knots at 159 degrees, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 775 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 18 nautical miles and lasted for 15 minutes, using 5 kilograms of fuel.
The Carenado CT210N aircraft successfully landed on runway 20L at KBNA Nashville International Airport. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 197.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,194 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its landing, with a touchdown distance of 481 meters, which is considered good.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 69 knots, and the rate of descent was -39 feet per minute, indicating a perfect touchdown rate. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, signifying that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a gentle headwind of 3 knots.
The aircraft's performance was further enhanced by the minimal crosswind, which was only 2 knots. This allowed the pilot to maintain a stable approach and landing, resulting in a very good runway rollout alignment. The total landing distance of 775 meters was 32% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop safely within a reasonable distance.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control. The pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were well-coordinated, resulting in a smooth and safe landing. The score of 89.7% reflects the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot during the landing.
