Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 3.3° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 2.3° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,984 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 495 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 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 08 at LOWI Innsbruck Airport. The takeoff distance was 960 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 240 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Innsbruck, and ascended from an initial altitude of 2,912 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 32,214 feet, an increase of 29,302 feet in 17 minutes. The enroute climb covered a distance of 110 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles northeast of Alesheim, Germany. The descent from 32,219 feet to 11,980 feet, a decrease of 20,239 feet, took 12 minutes and covered 80 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes, and covering 11 nautical miles, starting 1 mile southwest of Neuhutten, Germany.
The enroute descent phase resumed, starting 1 mile northeast of Grossostheim, Germany, and the aircraft descended from 11,727 feet to 6,019 feet, a decrease of 5,708 feet, in 9 minutes, covering 40 nautical miles. Another level cruise phase followed, lasting 2 minutes, and covering 5 nautical miles, as the aircraft flew overhead Engelstadt, Germany. The final enroute descent phase began overhead Ober-Olm, Germany, and the aircraft descended from 5,677 feet to 1,593 feet, a decrease of 4,084 feet, in 5 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 07R at EDDF Frankfurt Airport, flying from the southwest at a heading of 70.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,239 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 29 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The aircraft landed on runway 07R, which had a length of 3,984 meters. The touchdown point was 80 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 139 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -193 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 1,167 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 264 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 59 minutes. The aircraft used 3,216 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) on runway 07R, achieving a high score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 70.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,239 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was recorded at 139 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than desired, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to maintain a more optimal speed during the landing. The touchdown rate of -193 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown.
The touchdown point was located 80 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilots' ability to maintain a stable and aligned approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and winds of 8 knots at 29°, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,167 meters was 29% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control and stability during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
