MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 6 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 23 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,999 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 150 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Annaba Rabah Bitat Airport, the Cessna 208B began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 80 kt in a distance of 468 m, which accounted for 20% of the runway's length. The aircraft then climbed away from the airport, reaching an altitude of 7,885 ft asl in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nm. This enroute climb phase was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft reaching a maximum rate of climb of 1,167 ft/min.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 7,885 ft asl for 70 minutes as it covered a distance of 208 nm. The cruise phase was followed by a descent phase, during which the aircraft descended from 8,000 ft asl to 2,203 ft asl in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nm. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time at an altitude of 2,130 ft asl, and remained at this altitude for 7 minutes as it covered a distance of 16 nm. The final descent phase saw the aircraft descend from 2,130 ft asl to 1,375 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
The Cessna 208B then began its final approach to runway 31 at Guemar Airport, descending from 1,170 ft agl to touch down on the runway in a distance of 148 m, with a touchdown speed of 62 kt and a firm touchdown rate of -395 fpm. The aircraft's touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 23.2 m from the centreline. Following a taxiing period of 3 minutes, the aircraft came to a stop, having used a total of 371 kg of fuel and covering a total distance of 263 nm.
The aircraft touched down on runway 31 at DAUO Guemar Airport with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 63 kt was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 148 m was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 62 kt was also good, suggesting a controlled and stable approach.
However, the touchdown rate of -395 fpm was firm, which may indicate a slight over-rotation. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.6 m from the centreline, which could be attributed to a minor deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 323 m, which accounted for 11% of the runway length, was acceptable. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 23.2 m from the centreline, which may indicate a slight deviation in the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 89.5%.
