Flight Score
Departure
Smooth your pitch and roll inputs during the climb so the g force stays close to 1.2 g instead of spiking.
What happened: During the third climb segment the g force swung to 1.2 g, well outside the steady level flight band.
Watch for: Watch the g-meter and keep it settled near the normal one g climb band.
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 64 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 64 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 750 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.
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 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 1,917 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,917 m of the 3,209 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 750 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 04R at LFMN Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport, covering 2 nm in 8 minutes.
During the departure roll on runway 04R, the aircraft used 1,407 m of runway, representing 48 % of the available length, and lifted off at 152 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 33 °C, wind 2 kt from 200°, a 1 kt crosswind component and a 2 kt tailwind component.
Climb commenced overhead LFMN, with the airplane ascending from 934 ft asl to 34,863 ft asl, an increase of 33,929 ft achieved in 18 minutes while covering 121 nm.
Level cruise began 33 miles southwest of Villanova, lasting 27 minutes and extending over 216 nm.
Descent started 45 miles southeast of Villasimius, with the aircraft descending from 35,003 ft asl to 1,314 ft asl, a loss of 33,688 ft in 20 minutes and traversing 122 nm.
The final approach to runway 01 at DTTA Tunis Carthage International Airport was executed from the south, on a heading of 12.0°, at 4 nm and 1,285 ft agl.
Landing on runway 01, whose length is 3,204 m, the threshold height of 63 ft agl was above target and the threshold speed was 146 kt. Touchdown occurred 331 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 136 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 265 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.9 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 32 °C, wind 4 kt from 355°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind component.
The total landing distance recorded was 1,833 m, equivalent to 57 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was assessed as very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering 1 nm in 4 minutes.
In summary, the flight covered 469 nm, required 76 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2,990 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 01 at DTTA Tunis Carthage International Airport was flown from the south on a heading of 12.0° at 4 nm and 1,285 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
During the threshold and flare the aircraft crossed the threshold at a height of 63 ft agl, which was above the target, while the threshold speed of 146 kt was recorded as good.
Touchdown occurred 331 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 136 kt, judged good, and a vertical rate of minus 265 fpm, judged fair. The touchdown point was slightly off centreline by 4.9 m.
Rollout alignment was very good and the total landing distance measured 1,833 m, representing 57 % of the 3,204 m runway.
With a score of 90.3 % the landing was solid; reducing the threshold height to meet the target and refining the flare to achieve a vertical rate closer to zero will tighten the remaining variances. Maintaining the current centre-line precision while fine-tuning these two items will further improve consistency.
