Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.
What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.
Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.
Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 9.8 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 305 m and 152 m 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 2,400 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 88 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP), the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As it reached the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 31L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 158 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,778 meters was 59% of the runway length, with a local temperature of 28°C and winds of 2 knots at 19°.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb 2 miles east of Kispest, rising from 424 meters above sea level to 10,359 meters in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a brief level cruise 4 miles southwest of Kimle, lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb 3 miles east of Halbturn, reaching an altitude of 11,429 meters in 3 minutes, covering 24 nautical miles. The majority of the flight was spent in level cruise, with a notable segment lasting 38 minutes and covering 313 nautical miles as the aircraft flew 1 mile north of Vienna International Airport. The descent phase began 3 miles southeast of Niederaula, with the aircraft descending from 11,533 meters to 4,263 meters in 16 minutes, covering 97 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23R at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL) was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft flying at 4 nautical miles and 376.4 meters above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 94 meters and a touchdown speed of 128 knots. The total landing distance was 1,294 meters, 54% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 612 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 106 minutes and a fuel consumption of 3,569 kilograms.
The final approach to runway 23R at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport from the north east was executed with a heading of 233.0° at 4 nm and 376.4 meters above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 129 knots, indicating a slight deceleration during the final stages of the approach.
The touchdown characteristics were good, with a touchdown distance of 94 meters and a touchdown speed of 128 knots. The touchdown rate of -0.8 meters per second was also within acceptable limits. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centreline, the deviation was minor. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind of 4 knots at 164°, contributed to a relatively calm environment for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,294 meters was 54% of the runway length, indicating a good utilization of the available runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centreline. Despite this, the overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 97.7%. The minor deviations from the ideal performance were not significant enough to detract from the overall quality of the landing.
