MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 15 ft.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 15 ft, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 23 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 23 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 23 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline and wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,481 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,481 ft of the 12,760 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,619 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 area to the runway, which took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 01R at Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS) in Las Vegas, Nevada. The takeoff distance was 5,044 feet, which was 60% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 142 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 86°F and winds of 14 knots at 275°. The crosswind was 13 knots, while the tailwind was 5 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Paradise, Nevada, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 3,179 feet above sea level to 36,610 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,430 feet in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 104 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 19 miles northeast of the Hualapai Airport (3AZ5) in Peach Springs, Arizona, and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 214 nautical miles. The descent started 7 miles east of Gallup, New Mexico, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 37,131 feet above sea level to 6,031 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,100 feet in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 105 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26 at Albuquerque International Sunport (KABQ) was made from the east, heading 273.0° at an altitude of 2 nautical miles and 713 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 26, which was 12,760 feet long. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 133 knots. The touchdown point was 1,269 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 131 knots. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -106 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 5,231 feet, which was 41% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 431 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 78 minutes. The aircraft used 6,293 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at the Albuquerque International Sunport, achieving a score of 92.0%. The final approach to runway 26 was initiated from the east, with a heading of 273.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 713 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 133 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing conditions. The touchdown point was located 1,269 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. The touchdown speed of 131 kt was also a bit faster than the ideal speed, which could have contributed to the longer touchdown distance.
Despite these minor deviations, the touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -106 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft's descent was controlled and stable, which is essential for a safe landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 17 feet, which may require some adjustments during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 79°F. The total landing distance of 5,231 feet was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the optimal landing conditions. However, the smooth touchdown rate and good runway rollout alignment indicate that the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were satisfactory.
