MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 63 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.
What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 74 ft agl, above the 50 ft agl target. Crossing high like this usually reduces your margin before the touchdown zone ends.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against 50 ft at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: no landing flap set, centreline 1.1° off, against a 1° limit and wings 16° of bank, against a 10° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,433 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 374 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna Skyhawk taxied from the parking area to runway 13L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport in 11 minutes, covering 2 nm.
Takeoff was performed on runway 13L with a takeoff distance of 401 m, which was 11 % of the runway. Liftoff occurred at 72 kt. The local weather at departure was temperature 9 °C, wind 9 kt from 119°, giving a crosswind component of 3 kt and a head-wind component of 9 kt.
The initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 39 seconds, averaging 790 fpm and reaching 92 kt at the top.
Afterward the aircraft levelled at 1,000 ft asl for 3 minutes, covering 6 nm while remaining overhead EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport Köln.
Climb continued from 753 ft asl to 5,097 ft asl in 5 minutes, covering 8 nm, beginning 1 mile west of Roesrath.
The aircraft then cruised level at 5,000 ft asl for 11 minutes, covering 19 nm, starting 1 mile east of Bergisch Gladbach.
Descent from 4,764 ft asl to 3,945 ft asl took 4 minutes, covering 7 nm, beginning 2 miles south of Duesseldorf.
A further level segment at 3,600 ft asl lasted 10 minutes, covering 18 nm, starting overhead Kaarst.
Descent from 3,990 ft asl to 1,249 ft asl occurred in 7 minutes, covering 12 nm, beginning 2 miles north-east of Wachtendonk.
Final approach to runway 27 at EDLV Weeze Airport began with a descent from 1,084 ft agl to 154 ft agl in 162 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, sink rate, glideslope and speed; they were not met for landing flap, centreline (at one gate) and wings level (at one gate). The aircraft was in final flap position 3 at 573 ft agl and was flying 70 kt.
Landing on runway 27 was performed with a threshold height of 74 ft agl, which was well above target, and a threshold speed of 57 kt, described as good. The flare was noted as perfect; the aircraft crossed the threshold high. Touchdown occurred 374 m from the threshold at 37 kt and a rate of minus 152 fpm, both described as good. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.0 m from the centreline. One bounce occurred on touchdown.
Total landing distance was 1,070 m, representing 44 % of the runway length of 2,433 m. Runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.6 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was temperature 10 °C, wind 10 kt from 150°, giving a crosswind component of 8 kt and a tailwind component of 5 kt.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
The entire flight covered 77 nm, lasted 49 minutes and used 14 kg of fuel.
