MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 578 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.
What happened: The touchdown rate was 237 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.
Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 237 fpm next time
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 1,632 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,632 m of the 3,697 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 570 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 25R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport, a movement that lasted 10 minutes and covered 3 nm.
Take-off was performed on runway 25R. The take-off roll used 1,849 m, which is 51 % of the runway length. Rotation occurred at 167 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 32 °C, wind 0 kt from 118°, with no cross-wind or head-wind component.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 19 seconds, averaging 2,229 fpm and reaching 176 kt at the top of the segment.
Climb continued from 1,079 ft asl to 32,986 ft asl in 35 minutes, covering 249 nm while remaining overhead KLAX.
The aircraft levelled at 33,000 ft asl for 82 minutes, covering 704 nm, beginning 5 miles east of 28DL DOCILF Dry Lake.
A further climb from 33,000 ft asl to 34,820 ft asl took 3 minutes and covered 28 nm, starting 14 miles south-west of Miles City.
Level flight between 35,000 ft asl and 39,000 ft asl lasted 586 minutes, covering 4,974 nm, beginning 11 miles north-east of MT29 Sunday Creek Airpark Miles City.
Descent from 38,744 ft asl to 1,576 ft asl was completed in 23 minutes, covering 133 nm, starting 4 miles south of Farsala.
Final approach to runway 03R at LGAV Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport began with a descent from 1,340 ft agl to 85 ft agl in 101 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on centreline, on speed, wings level. Configuration on final was landing gear down at 5,396 ft agl with 194 kt, and final flap position 4 at 4,947 ft agl with 157 kt.
Landing on runway 03R, runway length 3,697 m, occurred with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 136 kt. The flare was described as great, with little round-out. Touchdown was 152 m beyond the touchdown zone at 130 kt, a speed judged good, and the vertical rate was fair at minus 237 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with no bounce. Local weather at landing was temperature 7 °C, wind 1 kt from 232°, cross-wind 0 kt, tail-wind 1 kt.
Total landing distance was 1,548 m, representing 42 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered 6,098 nm in 743 minutes and used 81,019 kg of fuel.
