The flight began with a departure roll from runway 24 at Edinburgh Airport, with the Airbus A320 taking off into a local weather condition of 7°C temperature and a wind of 26 knots at 239 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind was 26 knots, which significantly aided the takeoff. The aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 163 knots, covering 62% of the 1,330-meter runway.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Newbridge, a city in Scotland. The climb was steep, with the aircraft rising from 1,186 feet above sea level to 32,909 feet in just 17 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles. This impressive climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 7 miles south of Keswick in England and lasted for 18 minutes, covering 80 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile south of Chelford in Cheshire East, England. The descent was from 33,010 feet to 3,257 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. Following the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise, this time starting 1 mile southwest of Alconbury in Cambridgeshire, England, and lasting for 10 minutes, covering 28 nautical miles.
The final approach to London Luton Airport was made from the east, heading 254.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,295 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which was 2,074 meters long. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 3°C temperature and a wind of 7 knots at 190 degrees, with a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The touchdown point was 459 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -283 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.3 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.4 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 1,376 meters, which was 66% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 291 nautical miles, taking 61 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 2,390 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at EGGW London Luton Airport, achieving an overall score of 83.9%. The final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,295 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 2,074 meters, and the threshold height was reported as good.
The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 135 knots, indicating that the pilot maintained a safe speed during the approach. However, the touchdown point was located 459 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path. The touchdown speed of 127 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -283 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft touched down with a moderate rate of descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 190°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight deviation from the centerline during the landing roll.
The total landing distance of 1,376 meters was 66% of the available runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 15.4 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a slight loss of directional control during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, but there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a more precise alignment with the centerline.
