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 1.7°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 138 kt before crossing the threshold.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 146 kt, 8 kt above the 138 kt target.
Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 138 kt at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,678 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,678 m of the 2,404 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 554 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Eindhoven Airport (EHEH), the Boeing 737-800 began its journey on runway 21, taking 7 minutes to taxi to the runway and cover less than 1 nautical mile. With a takeoff distance of 1,365 meters, accounting for 54% of the runway, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 158 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 6°C, with a gentle wind of 4 knots from 320°, resulting in a minimal crosswind component.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it passed overhead Oerle, Provincie Noord-Brabant, Netherlands, and continued to ascend to 36,993 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,942 feet in 18 minutes, covering 118 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase commenced overhead Le Quesnoy, Hauts-de-France, France, and lasted for 113 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 829 nautical miles. The descent phase began 4 miles northwest of Portalegre, Distrito de Portalegre, Portugal, and saw the aircraft decrease in altitude from 36,999 feet to 1,299 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,700 feet in 28 minutes, covering 156 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 10 at Faro Airport (LPFR) was initiated from the west, with the aircraft heading 100.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,263 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on a runway length of 2,404 meters, with a threshold height of good quality. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 146 knots, and the touchdown point was 141 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 139 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -234 feet per minute was fair. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.1 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.6 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 1,601 meters, accounting for 67% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile in 4 minutes. The total flight distance was 1,110 nautical miles, taking 171 minutes, and the aircraft used 6,216 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 10 at LPFR Faro Airport with a threshold height that met expectations. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 146 kt. The aircraft's descent was controlled, with a touchdown speed of 139 kt, although this was a little faster than desired. The touchdown rate of -234 fpm was fair, indicating a relatively smooth transition from the air to the ground.
The touchdown point was located 141 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may have been influenced by the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position from the centreline by 12.1 m. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 12 °C and a light wind of 2 kt at 340 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 2 kt and 1 kt respectively.
The total landing distance of 1,601 m was 67% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 12.6 m. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 93.1%. While there were some minor deviations from the desired parameters, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's capabilities ensured a safe and controlled landing.
