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 13°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,990 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 353 m touchdown sits inside 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 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 15 at SBKP Viracopos International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,208 meters, which was 38% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, wind speed of 9 knots at 120°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 9 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started at an altitude of 3,102 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 35,708 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,606 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 136 nautical miles. The enroute climb started 1 mile south east of SBKP Viracopos International Airport, and the aircraft then transitioned into a level cruise, which lasted for 61 minutes and covered 502 nautical miles. This cruise phase started 7 miles north of Tres Coracoes, Brazil.
The aircraft then began its descent, starting 12 miles south west of Ibicarai, Brazil, and descending from 36,145 feet above sea level to 25,054 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,091 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 40 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered 26 nautical miles, starting 6 miles south west of Ubaitaba, Brazil. The descent phase continued, starting 5 miles south of Camamu, Brazil, and descending from 24,822 feet above sea level to 4,441 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,381 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 62 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered 12 nautical miles, starting 13 miles south of Salvador, Brazil. The descent phase continued, starting 1 mile south west of Salvador, Brazil, and descending from 3,684 feet above sea level to 2,000 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,684 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered 5 nautical miles, starting 2 miles north east of Salvador, Brazil.
The final approach to runway 10 at SBSV Deputado Luiz Eduardo Magalhães International Airport was made from the west, heading 78.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,349 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 10, which had a length of 2,990 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 124 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 354 meters, and the touchdown speed was 119 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -414 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 24°C, wind speed of 7 knots at 120°, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,017 meters, which was 34% of the runway.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 794 n
The aircraft in question, an Embraer E195, successfully landed at SBSV Deputado Luiz Eduardo Magalhães International Airport with a score of 95.3%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 78.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,349 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft then landed on runway 10, which has a length of 2,990 meters.
The landing was deemed good in terms of threshold height and speed, with the threshold speed being 124 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 354 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 119 knots was slightly below the threshold speed, and the touchdown rate was considered hard at -414 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down with a relatively high rate of descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 6.8 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 120°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was also 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,017 meters, which is approximately 34% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.8 meters, which may have been due to the same factors that affected the initial touchdown position.
Overall, the landing was considered good, but there were some minor issues with alignment and touchdown rate. However, the aircraft was able to stop safely within a reasonable distance, and the pilot's performance was deemed satisfactory with a score of 95.3%.
