🛬 Landing Grade

Every landing is now graded.

When you log a flight, your co-pilot analyzes your actual touchdown and gives you a full breakdown — vertical speed, G-force, centerline accuracy, touchdown zone precision, ground roll, and your speeds at contact.

Realistic Grading

We don't reward butter hunting. Floating at -10 FPM isn't skill — it's dangerous in the real world. Our grading reflects how real airline check rides evaluate landings. The sweet spot is 80–160 FPM. That's where real pilots aim.

Grade Verdict
⚠️ Dangerous Float — below 60 FPM, commit to the landing
🥞 A+ Butter — perfect greaser
📘 A Textbook — airline standard
🛬 B Firm — safe and professional
⚠️ C Hard landing
😬 D Structural thump
💥 F Gear failure risk

Adapts to Conditions

Landing an A380 in a 25-knot crosswind is not the same as landing a Cessna on a calm day. Your grade adjusts for wind conditions at your destination and the aircraft type you're flying. A firm landing in rough weather won't be unfairly penalized.
