Flight Score
Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 168 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 147 kt against a target of 168 kt, running 21 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 168 kt.
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 151 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 330 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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 2,791 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 622 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 330 fpm arrival was firm.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A321ceo departed from runway 36 at LIMF Turin Airport. The take-off roll was 1,247 m, 42 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 147 kt. Local weather was 16 °C with wind 9 kt from 030°, giving a 4 kt crosswind and an 8 kt headwind.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 25 seconds at an average rate of 2,187 fpm, reaching 142 kt at the top. The aircraft then climbed from 1,999 ft asl to 35,098 ft asl in 22 minutes, covering 140 nm and passing overhead San Maurizio. A level segment at 35,100 ft asl lasted 12 minutes over 85 nm, starting overhead Fox. The climb continued from 35,092 ft asl to 37,049 ft asl in 3 minutes, covering 24 nm, beginning 48 miles south of Sausset-les-Pins. Level flight at 37,100 ft asl continued for 27 minutes, covering 186 nm, starting 44 miles east of Cadaques.
Descent began from 37,155 ft asl to 1,303 ft asl in 24 minutes, covering 120 nm, starting 5 miles south-west of Llucmajor, with a brief level-off at 3,000 ft asl. The final approach to runway 06 at LEIB Ibiza Airport descended from 1,329 ft agl to 61 ft agl in 103 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,245 ft agl, 185 kt; final flap position 5 at 2,420 ft agl, 189 kt.
Landing on runway 06 was on a good threshold with a threshold speed of 144 kt. The flare was described as excellent; the aircraft floated before touchdown. Touchdown occurred 205 m beyond the touchdown zone at 136 kt, with a firm rate of -331 fpm and very good alignment. Local weather was 20 °C with wind 14 kt from 050°, giving a 3 kt crosswind and a 13 kt headwind. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,290 m, 46 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The flight covered 562 nm in 97 minutes and used 4,771 kg of fuel.
