Good morning, I’d like to report a problem with my landing score on my last flight. It gave me a landing score of 67 with a perfect landing rate of -47. Is this normal? Thanks.
Hi, have you checked the wiki page? Landing Analysis – SimFly
A lot of things are explained, one of them is:
“.. Overly soft landings (touchdown rates close to zero) receive a decreasing score from 100 to 0, because an excessively soft landing is not always technically correct. A very low descent rate can be a sign that the aircraft is “floating” too long above the runway, potentially landing too far down and using more runway than necessary. This behavior can compromise operational safety or the realistic execution of the landing. Furthermore, especially in cases of wind or rain, a firmer touchdown is often safer, as it allows the aircraft to “anchor” itself more effectively to the runway and helps avoid risks such as aquaplaning or loss of control due to lack of immediate traction.”
ok thanks a lot I had read but since the landing before I was not very light and I saw that I was penalized, today I tried to be light but I was too light…
thanks a lot
And more important is the total score, try to get 100/100. it’s more important of the landing it self.
pay attention on using correct lights ON and OFF procedure, watch-out for over speed and bank turn angle.
While on Parking, just turn on BEACON, TAXI and NAV lights, then start to taxi. position your self on the runway, stop, turn OFF TAXI, and turn ON, LANDING and STROBE. then TAKE OFF
After landing, do the opposite. Stop on the runway, turn off STROBE and LANDING, and turn ON the TAXI lights, and proceed with taxi out of the runway.
Grazie mille!! Buoni voli!
