Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7.4 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.

Side view — the last 1,939 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,939 m of the 2,317 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 348 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 33 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,121 meters, which is 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 216 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of Langenhorn, Germany. The climb took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 151 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,071 feet above sea level to 35,252 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,181 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Nes, Netherlands. This phase lasted for 23 minutes and covered a distance of 174 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 14 miles north of Cley next the Sea, England. The descent took 28 minutes and covered a distance of 117 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 35,853 feet above sea level to 3,971 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,882 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile southeast of Studley, England. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Bearley, England. The descent took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,959 feet above sea level to 2,262 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,697 feet.
The aircraft then entered a final level cruise phase, starting overhead Warwick, England. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 33 at EGBB Birmingham International Airport, approaching from the southeast. The aircraft was at an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 33 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 347 meters and a touchdown speed of 137 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -278 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 332 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 10 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,859 meters, which is 80% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 467 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 96 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,938 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at EGBB Birmingham International Airport, achieving a score of 95.3%. The final approach to runway 33 was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 326.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 137 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown distance of 347 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast, which may have been due to the aircraft's approach speed being slightly above target.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 145 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots from 332°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 10 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's good touchdown alignment.
The total landing distance of 1,859 meters was 80% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases.
