Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final so speed is back to 146 kt before the gate, not after it.
What happened: Speed control was already loose at the stabilisation gate, and this flight crossed the threshold at 157 kt against a target of 146 kt, 11 kt fast. Carrying excess speed into the gate like this usually carries straight through to a fast threshold crossing.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 146 kt by the gate and held to 146 kt at the threshold.
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: speed 40 kt FAST on the reference speed of 146 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 18 kt FAST on the reference speed of 146 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,616 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,616 m of the 2,484 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 413 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As it reached the runway threshold, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 22R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 154 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,148 meters accounted for 38% of the runway length, with a local temperature of 21°C and wind conditions of 8 knots at 270°.
As the aircraft climbed out of Copenhagen, it began its enroute climb 2 miles south of Tarnby, reaching an altitude of 35,003 feet in 20 minutes and covering a distance of 134 nautical miles. The climb rate was impressive, with an increase of 34,016 feet in a relatively short period. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, lasting 58 minutes and covering 436 nautical miles. The cruise phase was followed by a descent, initiated overhead Bolzano Airport in Italy, where the aircraft descended from 34,963 feet to 1,409 feet in 22 minutes and covered a distance of 125 nautical miles.
The final approach to Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft aligning with runway 12 at 4 nautical miles and 1,258 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 412 meters and a touchdown speed of 152 knots, although slightly above the target speed. The runway touchdown alignment was excellent, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The total landing distance of 1,541 meters accounted for 72% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 704 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 1 hour and 9 minutes and a fuel consumption of 4,537 kilograms.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 12 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, despite a slightly high threshold speed of 158 kt, which exceeded the target by a considerable margin. The aircraft maintained a good height above the threshold, allowing for a smooth touchdown. The touchdown distance of 412 m was within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed flare.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 152 kt was slightly above the target, resulting in a fair touchdown rate of -208 fpm. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating precise control and coordination from the flight crew. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 31 °C and a light headwind of 3 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,541 m, accounting for 72% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, showcasing the flight crew's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was deemed satisfactory, with a score of 99.5%, reflecting the crew's proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
