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 1.3° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 26° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 86 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 106 kt against a target of 86 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 86 kt at the threshold.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up, no landing flap set, centreline 1.9° off, against a 1° limit and wings 12° of bank, against a 10° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,812 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,812 m of the 2,621 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 521 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport, the Vision Jet began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 91 kt in a distance of 1,281 m, which represented 49% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a gentle tailwind of 7 kt, contributed to a smooth and efficient departure.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it transitioned into an enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 2,500 ft asl in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nm. The climb profile was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with a vertical rise of 1,045 ft. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 2,500 ft asl for 2 minutes while covering a distance of 6 nm. The enroute descent phase began 2 miles north of Wildwood, with the aircraft descending from 2,472 ft asl to 1,813 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft aligning with the runway at a height of 864 ft agl. Although the threshold speed was slightly high at 106 kt, the touchdown point was 101 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 94 kt was fast. However, the touchdown rate of -163 fpm was good, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance of 1,728 m represented 66% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. Following a taxiing time of 1 minute, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having completed a total flight distance of 18 nm and consuming 20 kg of fuel.
The Vision Jet touched down on runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport with a score of 96.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 225.0° at 2 nautical miles and 864 feet above ground level. The final approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the recommended value at 106 knots, indicating a need for adjustment in the approach configuration.
The Vision Jet touched down 101 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 94 knots, which was faster than the recommended value. The touchdown rate of -163 feet per minute was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a gentle tailwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,728 meters was 66% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of threshold speed and touchdown speed.
