MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold bank angle near zero during the initial climb, starting from 2.9°.
What happened: Bank angle was elevated during the initial climb and excess bank usually persists into the second climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, wings level with bank angle near zero degrees.
Arrival
Apply steady, continuous back pressure through the flare to arrest the sink smoothly and hold the normal profile, rather than letting it drift.
What happened: The flare did not hold its target profile, with the sink most arrested at 4.5 ft, and this flight then touched down at 272 fpm of sink - a firm arrival. An unsettled flare profile like this usually carries through to a firmer touchdown.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smooth, steadily decreasing sink rate through the flare to touchdown.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,987 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 745 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Göteborg Landvetter Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 21, with the aircraft taking off after covering 38% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,262 meters, and the liftoff speed was 160 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 29°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 130 degrees. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of the airport and continued for 22 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,474 feet above sea level to 35,366 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 158 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 16 miles east of Stege, Denmark. This phase lasted for 43 minutes and covered a distance of 325 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting overhead LKSA Staňkov Airfield in the Czech Republic. The descent from 35,479 feet above sea level to 7,604 feet above sea level took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 85 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles northeast of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm, Germany. This phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles southeast of Gerolsbach, Germany. The descent from 7,069 feet above sea level to 2,767 feet above sea level took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08R at Munich Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 83.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,286 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,987 meters, and the threshold height was well above the target. The threshold speed was good at 136 knots, and the touchdown point was 331 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The touchdown speed was a little fast at 128 knots, but the touchdown rate was fair at -245 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were 31°C temperature and a wind speed of 5 knots at 90 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,329 meters, which was 33% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 5 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 596 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 98 minutes. The aircraft used 4,386 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 08R at EDDM Munich Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 83.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a steady course and speed.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 331 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly above the target, indicating that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -245 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's rate of descent was not excessively steep.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 31°C and a gentle headwind of 5 knots. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, which made the landing process relatively straightforward. The runway length of 3,987 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to decelerate and come to a stop.
The runway touchdown alignment was deemed very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. This is an important factor in ensuring a safe and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within 33% of the runway length. While there were some minor deviations from the target, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
