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 21 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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: 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 2,491 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 434 m touchdown sits inside 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 25 at ENBO Bodø Airport in Norway. The takeoff distance was 871 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 140 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 0°C, with a wind speed of 13 knots blowing from 229°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of ENBO Bodø Airport and ascending from an altitude of 1,201 feet above sea level to 29,014 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,813 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 69 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent, starting 9 miles south of Kjopsvik in Norway. The descent took place from an altitude of 29,014 feet above sea level to 4,691 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,323 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 10 miles northeast of Kiruna in Sweden, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at ESNQ Kiruna Airport was made from the northeast, heading 214.0° at an altitude of 1,373 feet above ground level, and at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 21, which had a length of 2,491 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 122 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 434 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 115 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -327 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -12°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots blowing from 230°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 12 knots. The total landing distance was 859 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 180 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 45 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 663 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at ESNQ Kiruna Airport, achieving a score of 96.8%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 214.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,373 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 21, which has a length of 2,491 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 122 knots, indicating a good approach speed. The touchdown distance of 434 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 115 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -327 feet per minute (fpm).
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.0 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the landing phase. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -12°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots from 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots, which may have assisted the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 859 meters was 35% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 7.9 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the landing or during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters.
