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 4.6 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 81 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 81 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 633 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 36 kt FAST on the reference speed of 132 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,906 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 633 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, the Boeing 737-700 began its journey with a taxiing period of 5 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 24, utilizing 1,369 meters, or 34% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 145 knots, overcoming a local wind of 5 knots at 289 degrees, with a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a distance of 101 nautical miles, increasing its altitude by 32,879 feet in 14 minutes. The climb phase concluded overhead the airport, marking the beginning of the enroute level cruise. The aircraft maintained a steady altitude for 33 minutes, covering 128 nautical miles, before initiating its descent 5 miles east of Premia, Italy. The descent phase saw the aircraft decrease its altitude by 30,423 feet in 14 minutes, covering 88 nautical miles. Following a brief level cruise near Tromello, Italy, the aircraft began its final descent, reducing its altitude by 2,032 feet in 3 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Milan Malpensa International Airport, it initiated its final approach to runway 35R from the south, aligning itself with the runway at 4 nautical miles and 1,246 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold height significantly above target, but a threshold speed slightly above target. The touchdown point was 220 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -131 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile in 3 minutes. The total flight distance was 349 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 2,341 kilograms and a flight duration of 61 minutes.
The Boeing 737-700 touched down on runway 35R at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the south. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a slightly above-target threshold speed of 136 kt, which was achieved at an altitude of 82 ft agl, significantly above the target height. The approach quality was otherwise unremarkable, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 349.0° at 4 nm from the runway.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it did so at a speed of 129 kt, which was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -131 fpm was smooth and controlled. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft tracking the centreline closely. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 19 °C and a moderate headwind of 10 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component of 4 kt was minimal, and the aircraft's handling was not significantly affected.
The total landing distance of 1,405 m was 47% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centreline alignment throughout the deceleration phase. Overall, the landing was scored 88.2%, reflecting a satisfactory performance in terms of approach quality, touchdown characteristics, and rollout alignment.
