Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 0 m.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 9 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 9.7 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

2 landings
The flight is kept as it was recorded: it ends when the engine is shut down, so a landing with the rotors turning is a stop along the way, not a new flight.

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 305 m and 152 m above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,981 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 412 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport, the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. With the runway 24L cleared, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 35% of the 1,414-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 150 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 24 °C, with a gentle wind of 2 knots at 173°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component and a slight headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from EDDB, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 8,501 meters above sea level in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles. The climb phase concluded 4 miles southeast of Rechenberg-Bienenmuehle, Germany, where the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining an altitude of 8,501 meters for 7 minutes while covering 70 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase commenced overhead Stankov, Czech Republic, where the aircraft began its descent from 8,534 meters to 803 meters above sea level, a decrease of 7,731.5 meters in 16 minutes, covering 90 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26R at EDDM Munich Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 263.0° at 4 nautical miles and 352.8 meters above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly below the target at 126 knots, resulting in a touchdown distance of 416 meters, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed of 122 knots and the smooth touchdown rate of -0.7 meters per second further contributed to a successful landing. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.4 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance of 940 meters, accounting for 24% of the 3,986-meter runway, was within the acceptable limits. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance of 269 nautical miles was achieved in 42 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 1,944 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 26R at EDDM Munich Airport from the east was executed with good quality, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 352.8 meters above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The aircraft was heading 263.0 degrees at the commencement of the approach, and the crew maintained a steady descent to ensure a smooth touchdown.
The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 122 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 416 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a well-executed flare. The touchdown rate of -0.7 meters per second was smooth, further contributing to a safe and controlled landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.1 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path.
Following touchdown, the aircraft rolled out along the runway, with a total distance of 940 meters covered, representing 24% of the runway length. Although the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.4 meters, the overall performance was still considered good, with a final score of 96.4%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a light wind of 2 knots from 98 degrees, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
