MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 9.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

Arrival
Begin raising the nose earlier, by 11 ft, so the flare has time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
What happened: The flare began late at 2 ft, 9.2 ft below the normal band, and a late flare like this usually leaves too little time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and start the flare in the normal band, around 11 ft.
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,292 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 254 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport took approximately 6 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 34, utilizing 991 meters, or 25% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 142 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure included a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 329 degrees, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 15-knot headwind.
The enroute climb commenced approximately 1 mile northwest of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 889 feet above sea level to a cruise altitude of 32,002 feet, an increase of 31,113 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 76 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 2 minutes and covering 12 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its descent, reducing altitude from 31,943 feet to 9,231 feet in 12 minutes, covering 72 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off again, this time for 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles, before commencing its final descent, which concluded at an altitude of 2,309 feet. The total flight distance was 249 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 55 minutes, and the aircraft utilized 1,720 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 12 at UBBG Ganja International Airport was initiated from the northwest, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 1,241 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was executed at an altitude of 1,235 feet, before the aircraft successfully landed on the runway, utilizing 781 meters, or 24% of the runway, to come to a stop. The touchdown speed was 104 knots, and the touchdown distance was 255 meters. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned. Local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 290 degrees, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 6-knot tailwind.
The aircraft touched down on runway 12 at UBBG Ganja International Airport, a 3,292-meter-long runway, with a good threshold height. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 124.0° from the north-west at 1 nm and 1,241 feet above ground level. The threshold speed was well-managed at 110 knots, allowing for a smooth touchdown. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 104 knots, which was within the acceptable range.
The touchdown characteristics were generally good, with a touchdown distance of 255 meters. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -488 feet per minute, indicating a slightly abrupt touchdown. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.1 meters, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25°C and a tailwind of 6 knots, were not particularly challenging.
The aircraft's rollout was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 781 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.3 meters. Overall, the landing performance was good, with a score of 92.9%. The slight misalignments during touchdown and rollout phases were the only notable areas for improvement.
