Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 8.2 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Stop increasing back pressure once the sink is arrested near 5.1 ft, holding pitch instead of continuing to rotate.
What happened: You kept adding back pressure through the flare, raising the nose 5.9° and carrying pitch well above this type's normal touchdown attitude - tail strike territory.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: hold the normal ground attitude at touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,198 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 756 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 10 at the MNMG Augusto C. Sandino (Managua) International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,406 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 157 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots blowing from an 80-degree direction. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. As the aircraft climbed, it began to ascend from an altitude of 1,275 feet above sea level to 24,843 feet, an increase of 23,568 feet in just 11 minutes, covering a distance of 45 nautical miles.
After reaching the cruising altitude, the aircraft continued its journey, maintaining a level flight for 14 minutes, covering a distance of 97 nautical miles. This enroute level cruise phase started 20 miles west of the MNMR Montelimar Airport. Following this, the aircraft began its descent, starting 26 miles southeast of the MSCH La Chepona Airport. The descent phase lasted 19 minutes, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude from 24,825 feet to 1,147 feet, covering a distance of 65 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07 at the MSLP Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 70.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,055 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down 333 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 124 knots. The touchdown rate was also good, at -151 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots blowing from a 39-degree direction. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,412 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 26.1 meters from the centerline.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 214 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 55 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,325 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at MSLP Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport, with a final approach score of 84.6%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southwest, heading 70.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,055 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed on runway 07, which has a length of 3,198 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was maintained at 140 knots, indicating a well-controlled approach. The touchdown point was 333 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center but still within a reasonable distance. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was also good, and the touchdown rate of -151 feet per minute (fpm) was within the acceptable range.
However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 26.1 meters from the centerline, which could have been caused by a slight drift during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 39°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 4 knots, and the headwind component was 6 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach and landing.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing path. The pilot's skills and experience were likely sufficient to handle these deviations and ensure a safe landing.
