MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 35 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 35 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 35 ft to touchdown.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above 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 2,074 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 642 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 to the runway at LOWI Innsbruck Airport, which took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 26, with a takeoff distance of 705 meters, which was 37% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 130 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 2°C temperature and a 5-knot wind at 180°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started 1 mile northeast of Birgitz, Tirol, Austria, and reached an altitude of 43,039 feet above sea level, an increase of 40,102 feet from the initial altitude of 2,938 feet. This climb took 18 minutes and covered 111 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Kohlberg, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, and lasted 34 minutes, covering 272 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 42,698 feet above sea level to 17,972 feet, a decrease of 24,726 feet in 12 minutes, covering 79 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 13 miles southeast of Orford, Suffolk, England, and lasted 5 minutes, covering 27 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 17,853 feet above sea level to 13,915 feet, a decrease of 3,938 feet in 3 minutes, covering 20 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north of Chevington, Suffolk, England, and lasted 7 minutes, covering 32 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 13,890 feet above sea level to 7,932 feet, a decrease of 5,958 feet in 8 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Great Paxton, Cambridgeshire, England, and lasted 5 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 7,866 feet above sea level to 2,261 feet, a decrease of 5,605 feet in 4 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at EGGW London Luton Airport was from the east, heading 254.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,715 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25 was successful, with a touchdown point 215 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 110 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -124 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 13°C temperature and a 11-knot wind at 180°, with a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 1,223 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.6 meters from the centreline.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 572 nautical miles, taking 108 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,574 kilograms of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at EGGW London Luton Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.7%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,715 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 25, which has a length of 2,074 meters. The threshold height at 75 feet agl was found to be well above the target, indicating a satisfactory approach. The threshold speed was also good, reaching 123 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
However, the touchdown point was located 215 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 110 knots was slightly faster than the desired speed. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -124 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was found to be misaligned by 8.3 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly faster touchdown speed. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots from 180°. The crosswind component was 10 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,223 meters, which accounts for 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also found to be slightly misaligned by 8.6 meters from the centerline. Overall, while there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing, Aircraft C750 successfully landed at EGGW London Luton Airport, demonstrating a satisfactory level of proficiency.
