MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Begin raising the nose earlier, by 11 ft, so the flare has time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
What happened: The flare began late at 6.5 ft, 4.8 ft below the normal band, and a late flare like this usually leaves too little time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and start the flare in the normal band, around 11 ft.
Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

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 six 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 3,689 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 409 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Šiauliai International Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 32L, with a takeoff distance of 781 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 128 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of -8°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 179°.
As the aircraft climbed, it started at an altitude of 1,557 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 38,994 feet, an increase of 37,437 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles. The enroute climb took place approximately 1 mile south east of Šiauliai, Lithuania. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 7 miles east of Sudeikiai, Utena County, Lithuania, and lasted for 36 minutes, covering a distance of 307 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 14 miles south of UUTO Staritsa Airport, Staritsa, Russia, where the aircraft descended from 38,948 feet to 5,005 feet, a decrease of 33,942 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 62 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles north of Istra, Moscow Oblast, Russia, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The final descent phase began 2 miles north west of Andreyevka, Moscow Oblast, Russia, where the aircraft descended from 4,109 feet to 3,011 feet, a decrease of 1,097 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles east of Mendeleyevo, Moscow Oblast, Russia, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24L at Sheremetyevo International Airport was made from the east, heading 255.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,371 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 411 meters, which was 24% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 114 knots, but the touchdown rate was firm at -381 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -7°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 280°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 903 meters, and the total flight distance was 497 nautical miles, taking approximately 77 minutes and using 1,268 kilograms of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed on runway 24L at UUEE Sheremetyevo International Airport, achieving a score of 96.3%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 255.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,371 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was satisfactory, with the threshold height being above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 118 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 411 meters, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 114 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -381 feet per minute (fpm).
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -7°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 280°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach. The total landing distance of 903 meters was 24% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 96.3%. However, the slightly fast touchdown speed and firm touchdown rate may indicate areas for improvement in the pilot's landing technique.
