Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 4.4°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
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 13 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 4.6 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,939 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,939 m of the 2,744 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 594 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from La Rochelle-Île de Ré Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 09, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 85% of the 1,246-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 154 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 20 °C, with a gentle wind blowing at 10 knots from a direction of 160°, resulting in a 9-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb phase, which started overhead Lagord, a town in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The climb from 1,003 feet above sea level to 33,880 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,876 feet, was achieved in 14 minutes and covered a distance of 91 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered its enroute level cruise phase, which lasted for 18 minutes and covered 129 nautical miles, with the aircraft flying 1 mile northwest of Moisdon-la-Rivière, a town in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The descent phase began 12 miles east of Barfleur, a town in the Normandie region of France, and lasted for 26 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 33,646 feet above sea level to 1,660 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,985 feet, covering a distance of 140 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, London Stansted Airport, it initiated its final approach to runway 04 from the southwest, flying at a heading of 43.0° at an altitude of 1,306 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 148 knots, and the touchdown point was 178 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 138 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -118 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.4 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,859 meters, covering 68% of the 2,744-meter runway. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 368 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,807 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 04 at EGSS London Stansted Airport, with a threshold height that met expectations. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 148 kt. The aircraft's descent was controlled, and the touchdown speed of 138 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -118 fpm.
The touchdown point was located 178 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned, deviating 6.4 m from the centreline. Despite these minor deviations, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and wind at 18 kt from 100 °, did not significantly impact the landing. The crosswind component of 15 kt and headwind of 10 kt were well-managed by the crew.
The total landing distance of 1,859 m was 68% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled rollout. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the crew's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phases of the landing. Overall, the landing performance scored 96.0%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
