Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 142 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 159 kt against a rotation target of 142 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 142 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Apply steady, continuous back pressure through the flare to arrest the sink smoothly and hold the normal profile, rather than letting it drift.
What happened: The flare did not hold its target profile, with the sink most arrested at 10 ft, and this flight then touched down at 224 fpm of sink - a firm arrival. An unsettled flare profile like this usually carries through to a firmer touchdown.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smooth, steadily decreasing sink rate through the flare to touchdown.
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,570 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 729 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A319 departed from Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, with the departure roll taking place on runway 04R. The takeoff distance was 1,242 meters, accounting for 42% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 159 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind of 5 knots at 90 degrees, resulting in a headwind of 3 knots and a crosswind of 3 knots.
Upon departure, the enroute climb began approximately 1 mile south west of Nice, with the aircraft ascending from a height of 1,001 feet above sea level to a height of 24,295 feet above sea level, representing an increase of 23,294 feet in 9 minutes, while covering 29 nautical miles. Following the climb, the enroute level cruise took place overhead Peone, lasting 9 minutes and covering 59 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started near Bardonecchia, with the aircraft descending from a height of 23,948 feet above sea level to a height of 2,702 feet above sea level, representing a decrease of 21,246 feet in 23 minutes, while covering 72 nautical miles. Upon reaching the final approach, the aircraft was heading towards Geneva Cointrin International Airport, with a south west approach from 4 nautical miles and 1,303 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 04 at LSGG Geneva Cointrin International Airport, with a runway length of 3,570 meters and a good threshold height. The threshold speed was also met at 129 knots. The touchdown point was located 316 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 117 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was firm at -375 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.0 meters from the centreline.
At the time of landing, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind of 1 knot at 340 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance covered was 1,423 meters, accounting for 40% of the runway. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.5 meters from the centreline.
The aircraft remained on the runway for a short period before taxiing to the parking area, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 166 nautical miles, taking 47 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used a total of 1,799 kilograms of fuel throughout the flight.
The recent aircraft landing of the Airbus A319 achieved a score of 86.0%. The aircraft's final approach to runway 04 at Geneva Cointrin International Airport originated from the southwest direction, aligning perfectly at a heading of 45.0 °, and at a distance of approximately 4 nautical miles (nm) above ground level (agl) with an altitude of 1,303 feet.
The aircraft successfully landed on runway 04, which has an impressive length of 3,570 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory and the required threshold speed of 129 knots was met. Upon touchdown, the aircraft came to rest 316 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which could potentially pose some concerns for ground handling.
However, the touchdown speed recorded at 117 knots was good, indicating a satisfactory rate of descent. The aircraft's descent rate, measured at -375 feet per minute (fpm), was also deemed firm, signifying it aligned well with the expected values. Although it touched down within an acceptable range, it is worth noting the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.0 meters from the centerline of the runway.
Additionally, the weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a moderate temperature of 17 °C and minimal wind impact from either direction, at 1 kt from a 340 ° heading, with both crosswind and headwind measuring only 1 kt and 0 kt, respectively. The total landing distance of 1,423 meters, which comprised 40 % of the available runway length, is within the acceptable threshold for most commercial carriers.
Lastly, the roll-out of the aircraft during runway rollout also witnessed a slight misalignment of 14.5 meters from the centerline of the runway, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal performance.
