Flight Score
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 12 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 15 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up and speed 58 kt FAST on the reference speed of 133 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 46 kt FAST on the reference speed of 133 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,646 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,646 m of the 3,986 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 637 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, runway 36L, the Boeing 737-700 began its journey with a taxiing period of 11 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles to reach the runway. At 14 °C and with a gentle 6 kt headwind, the aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 1,522 meters, utilizing 43% of the runway. Liftoff speed was achieved at 151 kt, marking the start of the climb phase.
As the aircraft ascended from 973 ft above sea level to 26,381 ft, a vertical increase of 25,409 ft was achieved in 9 minutes, covering 51 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase concluded 1 mile north east of Vijfhuizen, after which the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise phase, lasting 5 minutes and covering 39 nautical miles. The cruise phase ended 1 mile north west of Deuteren, where the aircraft began its descent phase. Descending from 26,897 ft to 2,736 ft, a decrease of 24,161 ft was achieved in 19 minutes, covering 104 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 06 at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport was initiated from the south west, with a heading of 60.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,534 ft above ground level.
The Boeing 737-700 landed on runway 06 at ELLX, with a total landing distance of 1,569 meters, utilizing 39% of the runway. The touchdown point was 226 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 134 kt, slightly above the target. The touchdown rate was perfect at 1 ft per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.5 meters from the centreline. Following a taxiing period of 6 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile, the aircraft arrived at the parking area. The total flight distance was 208 nautical miles, completed in 45 minutes, with a fuel consumption of -5,059 kg.
The Boeing 737-700 touched down on runway 06 at ELLX Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, showcasing a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was well above the target, registering at 152 kt. This slight deviation from the optimal speed may have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed of 134 kt.
The touchdown point was located 226 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, which could be attributed to the aircraft's slightly fast touchdown speed. The touchdown rate, however, was perfect at 1 fpm, demonstrating the pilot's skill in controlling the descent. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.5 m from the centreline, which may have been a result of the crosswind conditions. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14 °C and a wind speed of 3 kt at 327 °, did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,569 m was 39% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.3 m from the centreline, which may have been a result of the pilot's attempt to maintain directional control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance scored 90.5%, reflecting a high level of proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing.
