Your flight starts with a score of 100 points. The logger evaluates rules throughout the flight and deducts points for violations.
Standard Rules
| Rule | Condition | Penalty |
|---|---|---|
| Taxi Speed | Ground speed above 30 knots during taxi | -2 |
| Takeoff Lights | Landing lights not on during takeoff | -3 |
| Landing Lights Below 10K | Landing lights off below 10,000 ft | -2 |
| Beacon Light | Beacon light not on before engine start | -1 |
| Strobe Lights | Strobes not on during takeoff / climb | -1 |
| Speed Below 10K | IAS above 250 knots below 10,000 ft | -5 |
| Hard Landing | Landing rate worse than −500 fpm | -3 to -10 |
| Overspeed | Exceeding aircraft speed limitations | -5 |
Advanced Event Monitoring
The logger also tracks more sophisticated situations. While not all trigger score deductions automatically, they are all logged in your flight record:
| Event | What’s Checked | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Unstabilised Approach | At 1,000 ft AGL: gear not down, flaps not set, or VS exceeds −1,000 fpm | Logged |
| Landing Bounce | Aircraft becomes airborne again within 5 seconds of initial touchdown | Logged |
| Engine Overtemperature | Any engine EGT exceeds 900°C | Logged |
| Icing Encounter | Structural ice accumulation detected (cleared when ice dissipates) | Logged |
| Reverse Thrust | Thrust reverser deployment and stow tracked | Info |
| Seatbelt Sign | Sign on/off transitions logged | Info |
| APU Cycles | APU start and shutdown events | Info |
| Waypoint Passing | GPS waypoint transitions logged with name and distance | Info |
Repeat Violations
Some rules use a delay timer to avoid triggering repeatedly. For example, taxi speed is checked every 30 seconds so you won’t get penalised for a brief speed spike. However, persistent violations can trigger multiple deductions.
Score Guide
| 90 – 100 | Excellent |
| 70 – 89 | Good |

Your score is submitted with the PIREP and visible on your pilot profile.
