MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 3.8° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 8.9° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Apply less back pressure in the flare, easing it in more slowly instead of arresting the sink sharply at 43 ft.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink at 43 ft, ballooning the aircraft before 238 fpm of sink rate returned as it settled back toward the runway.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: hold a steady, continuous descent through the normal flare band.
See Arrival Landing
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 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 2,395 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 819 m past the threshold — beyond 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, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 06 at EDLW Dortmund Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,169 meters, which accounted for 84% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. There was a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Unna, Germany, and rising from an altitude of 1,042 feet above sea level to 2,993 feet, an increase of 1,951 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles south of Waltrop, Germany, and lasting for 5 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 22 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles south of Dortmund, Germany, and descending from an altitude of 2,838 feet to 592 feet, a decrease of 2,246 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then initiated another climb, this time from an altitude of 581 feet to 3,101 feet, an increase of 2,519 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The climb took place overhead EDLW Dortmund Airport. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile southwest of Kamen, Germany, and lasting for 9 minutes, during which it covered a distance of 33 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport was initiated from the northeast, with a heading of 233.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level. However, the aircraft was forced to execute a go-around at an altitude of 137 feet above ground level.
The aircraft then landed on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, with a runway length of 2,395 meters. The threshold height at 63 feet above ground level was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 116 knots. The touchdown point was 394 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 100 knots, which was good, but a touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute, which was fair. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.1 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, with a slight headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,402 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 169 nautical miles, taking a total of 50 minutes, and the aircraft used 840 kilograms of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.3%. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 233.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with a threshold height above the target at 63 feet agl. However, the threshold speed was good at 116 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown point was located 394 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot.
The touchdown speed of 100 knots was within the acceptable range, suggesting a controlled and stable landing. However, the touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating a slightly higher-than-desired rate of descent. This may be attributed to the aircraft's altitude at touchdown, which was above the target.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been caused by a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the approach path. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The total landing distance of 1,402 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the ideal approach and touchdown.
