Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 4.1° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 3.1° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed, off the runway's 3° glideslope, off the centreline and speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope and off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,344 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 186 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 area to the runway, which took 29 minutes and covered a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 767-300ER, was operated by Icelandair and departed from runway 24 at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (ELLX).
As the aircraft took off, it covered a takeoff distance of 1,207 meters, which was 30% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 162 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 20°C, a wind speed of 25 knots at 229°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 24 knots.
After taking off, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb was steep, with an increase in altitude from 2,195 feet above sea level to 9,856 feet above sea level, a rise of 7,661 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began overhead Holzem, Luxembourg, and lasted for 39 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 45 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 10,623 feet above sea level to 18,363 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,740 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles east of Perthes, France. The descent was from 18,488 feet above sea level to 17,707 feet above sea level, a decrease of 781 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time starting 2 miles north of Bazancourt, France, and lasted for 7 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 47 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 1 mile east of Jaignes, France, and was from 17,717 feet above sea level to 1,926 feet above sea level, a decrease of 15,791 feet in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 30 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24 at Paris-Orly Airport (LFPO) was from the north-east, heading 240.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,612 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 134 knots and a touchdown distance of 185 meters. The touchdown rate was heavy at -649 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°C, a wind speed of 20 knots at 250°, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 19 knots. The total landing distance was 599 meters, which was 18% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
In conclusion, the flight was a smooth and efficient one, with the aircraft covering a total distance of 181 nautical miles in 40 minutes, using no fuel. The crew's skills and the aircraft's performance were evident throughout the flight, resulting in a safe and successful landing.
The Boeing 767-300ER aircraft, operated by Icelandair, successfully landed at Paris-Orly Airport's runway 24 with a high level of precision. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north-east, heading 240.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,612 feet above ground level.
The pilot's final approach was executed with a high degree of accuracy, resulting in a perfect runway touchdown alignment. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 134 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 185 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
However, the touchdown rate was slightly heavy, at -649 feet per minute, which may indicate that the pilot could have applied a bit more gentle touch on the runway. Nevertheless, this did not seem to have any significant impact on the overall landing performance.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a moderate headwind of 19 knots. The wind direction was from 250°, which was not directly opposing the aircraft's heading, and the crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 599 meters was relatively short, accounting for only 18% of the runway length. This suggests that the pilot had maintained a high level of control and precision throughout the landing process. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully transitioned from the landing phase to the rollout phase without any issues.
Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 767-300ER aircraft, operated by Icelandair, was highly satisfactory, with a score of 94.7%. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth and controlled landing, which was executed in challenging weather conditions.
