Flight Score
Departure
Use coordinated aileron input to level the wings and hold bank angle close to wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the initial climb, your average bank angle drifted to 3°.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, bank angle 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,831 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,643 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Aircraft departed from KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport, runway 27L, with a takeoff distance of 6,360 feet, accounting for 57% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 165 knots, with a local temperature of 69°F and a wind of 4 knots at 220°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to 35,000 feet, it covered 204 nautical miles in 27 minutes, achieving an increase of 33,342 feet in altitude. The enroute level cruise phase started 3 miles south of South Lyon, Michigan, and lasted 82 minutes, covering 751 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent several climb and cruise phases, with notable climbs from 35,001 feet to 36,661 feet in 2 minutes, and from 37,061 feet to 38,007 feet in 2 minutes. The longest level cruise phase lasted 200 minutes, covering 545 nautical miles. The aircraft began its descent 1 mile north of Brighton, England, and landed on runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport, with a total landing distance of 4,599 feet, accounting for 52% of the runway length.
The local weather at the time of landing was characterized by a temperature of 50°F and a wind of 6 knots at 320°. The crosswind and headwind components were 4 and 3 knots, respectively. The aircraft's touchdown speed was slightly above target at 137 knots, and the touchdown rate was hard at -402 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 19 feet from the centerline. The total flight distance was 3,758 nautical miles, taking 437 minutes, and the aircraft used 103,147 pounds of fuel.
The final approach to runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was initiated from the east, heading 264.0° at 4 nm and 1,384 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 62 ft agl, which was above the target. The threshold speed of 139 kt was slightly above the target, indicating a slight increase in power application during the approach.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown point was 289 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 137 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate was hard at -402 fpm, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position by 19 ft from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 50 °F and a wind of 6 kt at 320°, resulted in a crosswind of 4 kt and a headwind of 3 kt.
The total landing distance of 4,599 ft was 52% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 91.1%. However, there were some areas for improvement, including the threshold height, touchdown speed, and touchdown rate.
