MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 0.6°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
Arrival
Shallow the descent on final to re-intercept the glideslope and cross the threshold at 50 ft.
What happened: The aircraft was off the glideslope during the approach, tracking low against the required path.
Watch for: Watch the glideslope indicator and threshold height, targeting 50 ft at the threshold.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: glideslope 5.1° against the runway's 3°.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,510 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,217 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cirrus Vision SF50 taxied from the parking area to runway 01 at KJAC Jackson Hole Airport in 12 minutes, covering 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 01, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 94 kt and left the ground after a takeoff distance of 2,515 ft, which represented 40 % of the runway; ambient conditions were 60 °F with a 18 kt wind from 20° and no cross-wind component.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north of KJAC, with the airplane ascending from 7,552 ft asl to 29,926 ft asl, a gain of 22,374 ft achieved in 20 minutes while covering 66 nm.
Level cruise began 7 nm southwest of Fairview, Wyoming, and persisted for 98 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 494 nm.
Descent was initiated 2 nm south of Summerlin South, Nevada, with the aircraft descending from 29,988 ft asl to 2,634 ft asl, a loss of 27,354 ft in 9 minutes over a distance of 24 nm.
The final approach to runway 26L at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport was conducted from the east, on a heading of 262.0° at 1 nm and 505 ft agl; local weather reported 91 °F, a 4 kt wind from 240°, a 2 kt cross-wind and a 4 kt head-wind component.
Landing on runway 26L, which is 10,510 ft long, occurred with a threshold height of 56 ft agl slightly above target and a threshold speed of 92 kt well above target; touchdown was recorded 784 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 74 kt with a smooth rate of minus 126 fpm, and the touchdown point was offset 20 ft from the centreline.
Runway rollout alignment was described as very good, and the total landing distance measured 3,564 ft, representing 34 % of the runway length.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 589 nm, required 137 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 788 lb of fuel.
The final approach to runway 26L at KLAS was flown from the east on a heading of 262.0° at 1 nm and 505 ft agl, with a temperature of 91 °F, a wind from 240° at 4 kt, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component.
At the threshold the height of 56 ft agl was noted as slightly above target and the threshold speed was recorded as well above target at 92 kt.
Touchdown occurred 784 ft beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 74 kt judged good and a smooth touchdown rate of minus 126 fpm; the aircraft was slightly misaligned by 20 ft from the centreline.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 3,564 ft, representing 34 % of the runway, and runway-rollout alignment was very good.
To refine future landings, reduce the final-approach speed to meet the target value and aim to touch down within the designated zone, which will also help maintain optimal alignment.
