Speed on the fast side
Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 409 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Page Municipal Airport, the Airbus A320 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. With the runway clear, the aircraft initiated its departure roll on runway 17R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 142 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,105 meters accounted for 60% of the runway length, with the aircraft clearing the ground at a temperature of 27°C and a wind of 20 knots from a direction of 200°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and a 19-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it began its ascent 2 miles south of KRCE Page Municipal Airport, Oklahoma City, and continued to climb to 38,428 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,048 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 111 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started 2 miles east of OK31 Whittington Ranch Airport Thackerville, lasting 16 minutes and covering another 111 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 2 miles west of XS55 Gizmo Field Malone, Texas, and continued to descend to 4,397 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,601 feet in 22 minutes, covering 118 nautical miles. A brief level cruise phase followed, lasting 5 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its final descent 1 mile south east of Mustang Ridge, Texas, touching down on runway 36L at KAUS Austin Bergstrom International Airport.
The landing was executed with good threshold height, threshold speed, and touchdown speed, with the aircraft touching down at 118 knots and a touchdown rate of -62 feet per minute. The total landing distance of 1,139 meters accounted for 30% of the runway length, with the runway rollout alignment being perfect. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 364 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,238 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The aircraft touched down smoothly on runway 36L at KAUS Austin Bergstrom International Airport, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. The approach quality was excellent, with a threshold speed of 124 kt that was precisely maintained. The touchdown distance of 408 m was also good, indicating a well-executed flare and touchdown. The touchdown speed of 118 kt was within the desired range, and the touchdown rate of -62 fpm was exceptional, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision.
The aircraft's centreline alignment was slightly off, with a deviation of 3.3 m from the centreline. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the landing, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The total landing distance of 1,139 m was 30% of the runway length, which is well within the acceptable range. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 24 °C and a wind of 6 kt at 79 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
Overall, the landing was a textbook example of precision and control, with a score of 100.0%. The aircraft's performance was exceptional, and the crew's skills and experience were evident throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The landing was a testament to the capabilities of the Airbus A320 and the expertise of the flight crew.
