Top opportunity

Maintain a smooth pitch

Departure Roll

When Vr arrives, an abrupt near-full-scale pull, pitch overshoots, a push, and an oscillation through the first 200 ft. It feels like “this aircraft is twitchy” but the actual fault happened before liftoff. The pitch trace needs to show a clean ramp during liftoff.

Landing Score 99.29 %
Landing Summary

In analyzing the aircraft landing score of 99.3%, it is evident that the pilot demonstrated exceptional skills and precision throughout all phases of the landing process.

Starting with the Approach Phase, the pilot was able to maintain excellent glideslope alignment, ensuring a smooth descent towards the runway. Although the speed was slightly below target, the pilot managed to make necessary adjustments to ensure a safe landing.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, the pilot displayed great control by achieving the correct threshold height and executing a perfect landing flare. This indicates a high level of proficiency in managing the aircraft's descent and speed during the crucial moments before touchdown.

During the Touchdown Phase, the pilot continued to exhibit remarkable skill with an excellent touchdown rate and maintaining the correct speed upon contact with the runway. Additionally, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone shows the pilot's ability to accurately judge the aircraft's position relative to the designated landing area.

Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, the pilot maintained good runway alignment, positioning the aircraft only 3.2 meters from the centerline. This level of precision is essential in ensuring a smooth exit from the runway and safe taxiing to the designated gate.

Overall, the pilot's performance in each phase of the landing process contributed to achieving an impressive score of 99.3%. This level of accuracy and proficiency is commendable and reflects the pilot's dedication to safety and excellence in aviation. Keep up the great work and continue to strive for perfection in every flight!
