Flight Score
Departure
Hold the nosewheel on and wait for the speed to reach 180 kt before rotating.
What happened: You rotated early, lifting off at 156 kt against a target of 180 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator approaching 180 kt before you rotate.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 89 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 89 ft, 44 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: six 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 runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,478 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,478 m of the 3,589 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 494 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.

The enroute level cruise started over Bosovice in the Czech Republic, lasting 3 minutes and covering 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb 1 mile north east of Deblin, ascending from 30,616 feet to 33,952 feet, an increase of 3,336 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 26 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north east of Veprova, lasting 12 minutes and covering 80 nautical miles. The enroute descent started over Polepy, with the aircraft descending from 32,468 feet to 5,347 feet, a decrease of 27,121 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile west of Rackwitz in Germany, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 2 miles north west of Schkeuditz, with the aircraft descending from 4,681 feet to 1,953 feet, a decrease of 2,728 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another climb 3 miles north of Wallendorf, ascending from 1,938 feet to 4,994 feet, an increase of 3,056 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 2 miles south west of Rackwitz, with the aircraft descending from 4,994 feet to 4,318 feet, a decrease of 676 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started over Jesewitz, lasting 5 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 1 mile south west of Zschepplin, with the aircraft descending from 3,996 feet to 1,189 feet, a decrease of 2,807 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26L at Leipzig/Halle Airport (EDDP) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 270.0° at 3 nautical miles and 742 feet above ground level. The landing took place on the runway, with the touchdown point being 91 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was
The aircraft, a Boeing 742, successfully landed at Leipzig/Halle Airport (EDDP) on runway 26L. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 742 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was well above the target at 160 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown point located 91 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 161 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -119 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, showcasing the pilot's skill in aligning the aircraft with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the aircraft's performance. The total landing distance of 2,409 meters was 67% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 15.3 meters from the centerline, which may be a minor concern for the pilots to address in future landings.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and touchdown. The minor deviation in runway rollout alignment is a minor issue that can be addressed through further training and practice.
