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 4.8 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 5.6 m.
Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 3,981 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 418 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to the departure runway, a movement that lasted 7 minutes and covered 2 nm.
Departure roll was conducted on runway 22 at EDDC Dresden Airport; the takeoff run measured 1,262 m, representing 50 % of the runway, and liftoff was achieved at 151 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 18 °C, wind 4 kt from 230°, with a 1 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt headwind.
The initial climb began 1 mile south-west of Dresden, climbing from 1,678 ft asl to 15,847 ft asl, an altitude gain of 14,169 ft in 5 minutes while covering 24 nm.
A level cruise segment started 3 miles east of Rechenberg-Bienenmühle and lasted 2 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 8 nm.
A second climb commenced 1 mile south-west of Mezibori, rising from 16,010 ft asl to 27,752 ft asl, an increase of 11,742 ft in 9 minutes and covering 57 nm.
The next cruise phase was over Ves Touskov, lasting 2 minutes and encompassing 14 nm of flight.
Descent began over Zahorany, descending from 28,008 ft asl to 2,812 ft asl, a loss of 25,196 ft in 16 minutes while traversing 85 nm.
Final approach to runway 26R at EDDM Munich Airport was executed from the east, on a heading of 263.0° at 4 nm and 1,331 ft agl.
Landing on runway 26R, which is 3,989 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 137 kt. Touchdown occurred at 425 m down the runway, at a speed of 129 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 252 fpm and a lateral deviation of 5.0 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was temperature 18 °C, wind 2 kt from 244°, with a 1 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.
The total landing distance recorded was 1,411 m, representing 35 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was described as very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a taxi-in that lasted 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 197 nm, required 48 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2,000 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 approached runway 26R at Munich (EDDM) from the east on a heading of 263.0° at 4 nm and 1,331 ft AGL. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 18 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 244°, including a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind.
The threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 137 kt.
Touchdown occurred 425 m down the runway, which was judged good, while the touchdown speed of 129 kt was noted as a little fast. The vertical rate was fair at minus 252 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.0 m from the centreline. Total landing distance was 1,411 m, representing 35 % of the 3,989 m runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft continued along the centreline to the end of the runway.
With a final score of 97.4 %, the landing was strong overall; reducing touchdown speed closer to the target VREF will tighten the speed margin, and correcting the 5.0 m lateral offset will improve centreline alignment for future operations.
