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 4.7 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Add power earlier on final to hold VREF of 149 kt by the gates rather than let speed decay.
What happened: The approach was flown too slow through the stabilisation gates, crossing the threshold at 143 kt against a VREF of 149 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 149 kt from the first stabilisation gate onward.
See Arrival Approach
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 500 ft gate: speed 6 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 149 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,853 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,853 m of the 3,026 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 680 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, the Boeing 737-900 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. Upon reaching runway 22R, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 1,002 meters, or 33% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 167 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 20°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 260°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and a 9-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it began its ascent 2 miles south of Tarnby, Denmark, and continued to climb to 32,638 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,583 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 121 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started 28 miles north of Ustronie Morskie, Poland, and lasted for 20 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 147 nautical miles. The descent phase began 1 mile southeast of Radzyn Chelminski, Poland, and continued to 4,320 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,434 feet in 23 minutes, covering 124 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a brief level cruise phase overhead Sobienie Jeziory, Poland, lasting 3 minutes and covering 12 nautical miles, before initiating its final descent 1 mile southwest of Tomice, Poland. The aircraft landed on runway 33 at Warsaw Chopin Airport, with a total landing distance of 1,775 meters, or 59% of the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing featured a temperature of 20°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 230°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and a 1-knot tailwind. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 138 knots, with a touchdown rate of -208 feet per minute, and a touchdown point 266 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total flight distance was 420 nautical miles, taking 77 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,687 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The Boeing 737-900 touched down on runway 33 at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the south east. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a slightly high threshold height of 66 ft agl, exceeding the target by a margin of 8 ft. However, the threshold speed of 144 kt was well within the acceptable range, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it did so at a speed of 138 kt, which was within the desired parameters. The touchdown rate of -208 fpm was somewhat higher than optimal, but still considered fair. The touchdown point was located 266 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. Notwithstanding this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, a testament to the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle tailwind of 1 kt, contributed to a relatively smooth and stable approach.
The subsequent rollout phase was executed flawlessly, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment with the centreline. The total landing distance of 1,775 m, accounting for 59% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was deemed satisfactory, earning a score of 91.0%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal, the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance ensured a safe and controlled conclusion to the approach.
