MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 0 m.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Carry more power on approach to hold 125 kt at the threshold instead of letting speed decay into the flare.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink at 37 ft while already below the speed target, and the aircraft settled as the remaining energy ran out, usually carrying a firm touchdown with it at 225 fpm.
Watch for: Watch airspeed on short final against 125 kt, keeping it there through the flare.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,606 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,606 m of the 3,532 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 655 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Memmingen Allgau Airport (EDJA), the Airbus A319 began its journey with a smooth taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 4 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft lined up on runway 06, it was cleared for departure, and with a takeoff distance of 1,615 meters, which was 60% of the runway, the aircraft lifted off at a liftoff speed of 150 knots. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it began its ascent from 888 meters above sea level to 11,583 meters, an increase of 10,694.7 meters in just 17 minutes, covering a distance of 107 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started over Kumhausen, Bavaria, and lasted for 38 minutes, covering a distance of 305 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, first from 11,579 meters to 5,182 meters, a decrease of 6,397.2 meters in 11 minutes, covering 66 nautical miles. The subsequent level cruises and descents were executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a stable altitude and airspeed throughout the flight.
As the aircraft approached its destination, Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (EKCH), it began its final approach to runway 04L from the southwest, heading 41.0° at 4 nautical miles and 387.9 meters above ground level. The landing was executed smoothly, with a touchdown point 236 meters beyond the touchdown zone, a touchdown speed of 117 knots, and a touchdown rate of -1.0 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 1,522 meters, which was 43% of the runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 5 minutes to cover 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 617 nautical miles, taking 109 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,612 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 04L at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport from the south west was executed with a heading of 41.0° at 4 nm and 387.9 meters above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and threshold speed of 121 kt. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 117 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -1.0 m/s was also good, indicating a controlled and smooth touchdown.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's position on the runway was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centreline. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phase of the landing. The total landing distance of 1,522 meters was 43% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range for a commercial airliner like the Airbus A319.
The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 91.1%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18°C and a light wind of 3 kt at 356°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 2 kt each, which further facilitated a smooth and controlled touchdown.
