MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 7.9°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,606 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 308 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, which took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 09, with a takeoff distance of 872 meters, which was 26% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 129 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 4°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 100°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 10 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, and climbed from 865 feet above sea level to 30,009 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,144 feet, in 12 minutes, covering 67 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile northwest of Beveren, Belgium, and lasted 5 minutes, covering 43 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Strepy-Bracquegnies, Belgium, and descended from 29,992 feet above sea level to 4,993 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,999 feet, in 16 minutes, covering 81 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Taillefontaine, France, and lasted 14 minutes, covering 38 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Franconville, France, and descended from 5,010 feet above sea level to 1,820 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,191 feet, in 2 minutes, covering 8 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08L at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was from the west, heading 86.0°, at 4 nautical miles and 1,443 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 08L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 308 meters, which was good, and a touchdown speed of 112 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -369 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 140°. The crosswind was 8 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 900 meters, which was 25% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline.
The flight then ended with taxiing to the parking area from the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 245 nautical miles, and the flight took 59 minutes. The aircraft used 961 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed on runway 08L at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport, achieving a score of 96.5%. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 86.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,443 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 118 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown distance of 308 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 112 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed. The touchdown rate of -369 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 140°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance and control were sufficient to handle the wind.
The total landing distance of 900 meters was 25% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, suggesting a minor deviation from the optimal path. Despite this, the aircraft came to a stop safely, and the landing was considered successful.
Overall, the landing of aircraft C750 on runway 08L at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was a well-executed maneuver, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. The score of 96.5% reflects the high level of performance and safety achieved during the landing.
