Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 2.6°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 26 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 26 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 26 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,994 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,994 m of the 4,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 752 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, where the Airbus A32NX aircraft took off after covering a takeoff distance of 1,993 meters, which is 50% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 146 knots, and the aircraft was able to lift off the ground with ease.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots at a direction of 310 degrees. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile south east of Mastaga, a part of Baku City, Azerbaijan, where the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,037 feet above sea level to 1,883 feet above sea level, an increase of 847 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 30 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place approximately 2 miles west of Mastaga. After the cruise phase, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport from the south, heading at an angle of 344.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 34 was successful, with the aircraft touching down beyond the touchdown zone at a distance of 329 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly higher than the target speed at 134 knots, but the touchdown rate was good at -190 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.3 meters. The total landing distance was 1,906 meters, which is 48% of the runway length.
The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 14.4 meters. The local weather conditions remained the same during the landing phase, with a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots at a direction of 310 degrees. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. The total flight distance was 40 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 14 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 470 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A32NX aircraft successfully landed at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, with a score of 89.7%. The final approach to runway 34 was initiated from the south, heading 344.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 4,001 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 134 knots. However, the touchdown point was 329 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the aircraft landed slightly further down the runway than intended. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was also a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -190 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 310°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 7.3 meters.
The total landing distance was 1,906 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 14.4 meters. Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the aircraft was able to safely touch down on the runway and come to a stop without incident.
