MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 3.3°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
Arrival
Hold a little more back pressure through the last of the flare to arrest the sink before 282 fpm develops.
What happened: Touchdown sink rate was 282 fpm, a firm arrival with no other fault on this landing to account for it.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: minimal sink at touchdown
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,667 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,667 m of the 2,645 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 636 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 05 at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, a movement that lasted 12 minutes and covered 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 05, the aircraft used 1,873 m of runway, representing 56 % of the available length, and lifted off at 162 kt. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with a wind of 13 kt from 120°, including a 12 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north of CYYZ, with the airplane ascending from 1,540 ft asl to 31,986 ft asl, a gain of 30,446 ft achieved in 19 minutes while covering 113 nm.
The level cruise segment began 20 nm west of CYVV Wiarton Airport and continued for 90 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 603 nm.
Descent was initiated 13 nm east of 58MN Northwest Angle Airport, with the aircraft descending from 31,919 ft asl to 2,082 ft asl, a loss of 29,837 ft over 21 minutes and a distance of 100 nm.
Final approach to runway 31 at CYWG Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport was conducted from the southeast, on a heading of 319.0° at 4 nm and 1,291 ft agl. Weather at the destination was 20 °C with a wind of 15 kt from 320°, no cross-wind and a 15 kt head-wind component.
Landing on runway 31 employed a runway length of 2,652 m; the threshold height of 61 ft agl was above target and the threshold speed of 142 kt was slightly above target. Touchdown occurred 228 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 138 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 198 fpm and very good alignment. The total landing distance recorded was 1,595 m, representing 60 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was described as perfect, confirming the aircraft remained on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 828 nm, required 148 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2,262 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 approached runway 31 at CYWG from the south-east on a heading of 319.0° at 4 nm and 1,291 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was recorded at 61 ft agl, which was above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 142 kt.
Touchdown occurred 228 m beyond the touchdown zone. The aircraft touched down at 138 kt, a little fast, with a good vertical rate of minus 198 fpm and very good runway alignment.
Rollout alignment was perfect and the total landing distance was 1,595 m, representing 60 % of the runway length.
To refine future landings, aim to achieve touchdown within the designated zone by moderating the final approach speed toward the target, which will also help keep the touchdown point nearer the aim point. Maintaining the current alignment and rate will preserve the strong overall performance reflected in the 92.1 % score.
