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 5.2 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 436 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 325 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
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 2,820 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 620 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Kempegowda International Airport in Bangalore, India. This process took approximately 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 09L, with a takeoff distance of 2,111 meters, which is 53% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Kempegowda International Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile east of the airport, reaching an altitude of 11,582 meters above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 142 nautical miles and took 23 minutes, with an increase in altitude of 10,376.1 meters. The local weather conditions at this time were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 4 miles south of Hampi, India. This phase lasted for 20 minutes and covered a distance of 151 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 10 miles northeast of Tasgaon, India, descending from 11,580 meters to 880 meters above sea level. This descent phase covered a distance of 145 nautical miles and took 25 minutes, with a decrease in altitude of 10,700.6 meters.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles north of Panvel, India, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 3 miles north of Navi Mumbai, India, with the aircraft descending from 816 meters to 382 meters above sea level. This descent phase covered a distance of 5 nautical miles and took 2 minutes, with a decrease in altitude of 433.9 meters.
The final approach to runway 27 at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 269.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 371.8 meters above ground level. The landing was made on runway 27, which has a length of 2,820 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 203 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -2.2 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.0 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at this time were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius.
The total landing distance was 1,237 meters, which is 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 5 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 457 nautical miles, and the flight took 86 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 2,710 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 has successfully landed at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, achieving a score of 90.5%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 269.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 371.8 meters above ground level (agl).
The final approach to runway 27 was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 129 kt, which is within the acceptable threshold speed of 136 kt. However, the touchdown rate was slightly hard at -2.2 m/s, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce upon touchdown.
The touchdown point was located 203 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.0 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight drift or wind effect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31°C, which is relatively hot and may have affected the aircraft's performance. Despite this, the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and landing.
The total landing distance was 1,237 meters, which is 44% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a high level of control and stability throughout the approach and landing.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with only minor deviations from the ideal touchdown point and alignment.
