MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 4.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 0.9 ft, 10 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.
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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
At the 305 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 152 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,996 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 200 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 3.06 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at BKPR Priština Adem Jashari International Airport. This process took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 35, with a takeoff distance of 1,384 meters, which is 55% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of the airport. The climb took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 34 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 832 meters above sea level to 5,454 meters above sea level, an increase of 4,621.9 meters. The local weather conditions at this time were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 7 miles west of Istok in the Pec District of Kosovo. This phase lasted for 11 minutes and covered a distance of 72 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles northwest of Cajnice in Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The descent took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 38 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 5,485 meters above sea level to 889 meters above sea level, a decrease of 4,596.3 meters.
The final approach to runway 11 at LQSA Sarajevo International Airport was made from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 117.0 degrees at an altitude of 378.4 meters above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 11, which has a length of 1,996 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 198 meters, and the touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate was very heavy at -3.9 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.3 meters. The local weather conditions at this time were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius.
The total landing distance was 1,126 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 153 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 44 minutes. The aircraft used 1,636 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at LQSA Sarajevo International Airport, achieving a score of 89.9%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 117.0° at an altitude of 378.4 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 11, which has a length of 1,996 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 134 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown distance of 198 meters was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 132 knots was good.
However, there were some areas for improvement. The touchdown rate was very heavy, at -3.9 meters per second, which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the approach path.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C. The total landing distance of 1,126 meters was 56% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of the touchdown rate and runway alignment. With some adjustments to the approach path and landing technique, the aircraft can achieve an even higher score.
