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 3.9°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 128 kt before crossing the threshold.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 140 kt, 12 kt above the 128 kt target.
Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 128 kt at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,301 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 516 m 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 approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 18L at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. The takeoff distance was 731 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 146 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 200 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of Amsterdam, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 31 minutes and covered a distance of 246 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 947 feet above sea level to 36,988 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,040 feet. The enroute level cruise then began overhead Berenbrock, Germany, and lasted for 27 minutes, covering a distance of 219 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 3 miles north of Rybno, Poland, and took 18 minutes to descend from 37,004 feet above sea level to 3,004 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,000 feet. The descent covered a distance of 124 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off overhead Leszno, Poland, for a brief period of 3 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11 at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 115.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,304 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 11, which had a length of 2,301 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 140 knots. The touchdown point was 97 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 130 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -182 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 140 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 984 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took approximately 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 605 nautical miles, and the flight took 87 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 4,167 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The final approach to runway 11 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 115.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,304 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold height that was considered good. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, reaching 140 knots. This may indicate that the aircraft was slightly overpowered or that the pilots were taking a more cautious approach to ensure a safe landing.
The touchdown point was located 97 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, but the touchdown rate of -182 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good. This suggests that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain a stable and controlled approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -6°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 140°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots.
The total landing distance of 984 meters was 43% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to land smoothly and efficiently, with minimal use of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a high score and minimal deviations from the target parameters. The pilots demonstrated good control and judgment, and the aircraft performed well in the challenging weather conditions.
