Flight Score
Arrival
Apply small rudder corrections at touchdown, aiming at a point at the far end of the runway, to stay on the centreline.
What happened: Touchdown drifted 9.2 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 19 m.
Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 37 kt FAST on the reference speed of 129 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 16 kt FAST on the reference speed of 129 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,489 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 453 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP), the Airbus A320 began its journey on runway 13L, taking off with a distance of 1,469 meters, which covered 40% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 147 knots, with a local temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind of 9 knots at 230 degrees. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the tailwind component was minimal at 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it started at 1 mile north of Vecses, Hungary, and reached 34,008 feet above sea level in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 97 nautical miles. The climb was a significant 32,638 feet, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to efficiently gain altitude. The enroute level cruise phase began 1 mile northeast of Subotica, Serbia, and lasted for 16 minutes, covering 119 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 8 miles southeast of Ljubovija, Serbia, and descended to 2,006 feet above sea level in 20 minutes, covering 115 nautical miles. A brief level cruise phase followed, lasting only 2 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its final approach to runway 36 at Podgorica Airport (LYPG).
The final approach was made from the south, with a heading of 4.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,110 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 36, which was 2,486 meters long, with a touchdown distance of 447 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 130 knots, while the touchdown rate was fair at -228 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,140 meters, covering 46% of the runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 346 nautical miles, taking 64 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,371 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft, an Airbus A320, commenced its final approach to runway 36 at LYPG Podgorica Airport / Podgorica Golubovci Airbase from the south, aligning with the runway at a heading of 4.0° and a distance of 4 nm. At an altitude of 1,110 ft above ground level, the approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 130 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal approach speed.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 447 m, but the touchdown speed of 123 kt was a little fast, resulting in a fair touchdown rate of -228 fpm. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline, which could have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a wind of 7 kt at 120°, resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt and a tailwind of 3 kt.
The total landing distance of 1,140 m was 46% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 18.0 m from the centreline, which could have been a result of the initial touchdown position being off-centre. Overall, the landing performance scored 93.0%, reflecting a good but not perfect execution of the landing.
