Flight Score
Arrival
Add power on final to hold 136 kt across the threshold.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 128 kt, 8 kt below VREF, and low energy like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown at 224 fpm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 136 kt at the threshold
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 3,107 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 331 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport's runway 01L, the Airbus A380 began its journey with a smooth taxiing process, taking just 5 minutes to reach the runway. As the aircraft lifted off the ground, it covered 1,144 meters of the 2,760-meter runway, utilizing 42% of its length. The liftoff speed of 159 knots was achieved, and the aircraft began its ascent into the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots from 180 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed from 926 feet above sea level to 14,000 feet, it covered a distance of 32 nautical miles in just 6 minutes, achieving an impressive climb rate. The enroute level cruise phase started 6 miles south of Memari, lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 14,000 feet to 38,000 feet, covering 155 nautical miles in 21 minutes. The level cruise phase resumed 3 miles northeast of Kodarma, lasting 52 minutes and covering 398 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 38,000 feet to 2,248 feet, covering 65 nautical miles in 10 minutes.
As the aircraft approached Agra Airport's runway 05, it began its final approach from the southwest, heading 45.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,209 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown distance of 329 meters, utilizing 41% of the 2,876-meter runway. The touchdown speed of 119 knots and rate of -198 feet per minute were both within acceptable limits. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking just 3 minutes to cover the short distance. The total flight distance of 680 nautical miles was achieved in 104 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 20,164 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 05 at VIAG Agra Airport / Agra Air Force Station with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 128 kt was also satisfactory, demonstrating the crew's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed. As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it did so with a touchdown speed of 119 kt, which was within acceptable limits, and a touchdown rate of -198 fpm, indicating a controlled and stable descent.
The touchdown distance of 329 m was also good, reflecting the crew's skill in managing the aircraft's approach and landing. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway, a testament to the crew's attention to detail and ability to navigate the aircraft safely. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and a gentle wind of 4 kt at 250 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
Following touchdown, the aircraft's rollout was smooth and well-controlled, with the aircraft remaining aligned with the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,170 m, which accounted for 41% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, resulting in a score of 98.6%.
