MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 4.1° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 2.2° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 19 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 19 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 19 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 5,373 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,373 ft of the 8,398 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,000 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 19 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA). The takeoff distance was 4,535 feet, which accounted for 63% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 155 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 92°F temperature and a 5-knot headwind at 170°. The enroute climb started 1 mile north of Alexandria, Virginia, and reached an altitude of 36,270 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,261 feet in 25 minutes and covering 165 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 4 miles southeast of Burnsville, West Virginia, and lasted for 242 minutes, covering a distance of 1,537 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 9 miles southwest of Centennial Park, Arizona, and descended from 35,477 feet to 16,011 feet above sea level, a decrease of 19,467 feet in 11 minutes and covering 63 nautical miles.
The flight continued with multiple enroute level cruises and descents, each with varying altitudes and distances covered. The final approach to runway 01R at Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS) was made from the south, heading 25.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,346 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 01R was successful, with a touchdown point 660 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above target at 142 knots, and the touchdown rate was good at -177 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 12 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 88°F temperature and a 4-knot headwind at 100°.
The total landing distance was 5,133 feet, accounting for 61% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 9 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,866 nautical miles, taking 291 minutes and using 26,042 pounds of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport, achieving a score of 96.2%. The final approach to runway 01R was initiated from the south, with a heading of 25.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,346 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 142 knots. The touchdown point was located 660 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 134 knots was also a bit faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -177 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 12 feet, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 88°F, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 100°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 5,133 feet was 61% of the available runway length of 8,398 feet. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 96.2%. However, there were some minor deviations from the desired landing parameters, which may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's performance.
