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 2.4°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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.

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 1,539 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,539 m of the 2,883 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 392 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 21L at the Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport, also known as LGAV. The takeoff distance was 1,246 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots coming from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of the airport and reaching an altitude of 33,668 feet above sea level in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 83 nautical miles.
The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 4 miles southwest of Amfissa in Central Greece. This cruise phase lasted for 127 minutes and covered a distance of 917 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Rouvres-en-Plaine in Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, France. The descent from 34,130 feet to 7,379 feet took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 117 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile southeast of La Chapelle-Gauthier in Ile-de-France, France. This phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile west of Aubepierre-Ozouer-le-Repos in Ile-de-France, France. The descent from 7,009 feet to 3,227 feet took only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile south of Pontcarre in Ile-de-France, France. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 25 at the Paris-Orly Airport, which is also known as LFPO. The approach was made from the east, heading 254.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing was made on runway 25, which has a length of 2,883 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 145 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 392 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 140 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -242 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 3 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots coming from a direction of 300 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,457 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took only 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,152 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 192 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,537 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport, achieving a high score of 99.4%. The final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 145 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 392 meters, which is within the expected range. However, the touchdown speed of 140 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking force to slow down the aircraft. The touchdown rate of -242 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not as smooth as it could have been.
Despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were mild, with a temperature of 3°C and a light wind of 4 knots from 300°. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 3 knots each, which did not pose a significant challenge to the pilots.
The total landing distance of 1,457 meters was 51% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilots maintained a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good skills and judgment in executing the approach and landing.
