Flight Score
Retract gear by 400 feet
Next time
Raise the gear promptly once a positive rate is confirmed, before reaching the gate altitude.
What happened: Gear retraction was late relative to the target height for this stage of the climb.
Watch for: Landing gear position against the retraction height gate.
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the runway to come to you instead of starting the flare at 81 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 81 ft, well above the normal band and 36 ft earlier than the 45 ft limit.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 552 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 17 at LPPR Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport, a movement that lasted 6 minutes and covered 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 17 the takeoff distance recorded was 1,226 m, representing 39 % of the runway, and liftoff was achieved at 151 kt. Local temperature at the time was 17 °C.
Climb commenced overhead the departure airport, rising from 1,208 ft asl to 36,003 ft asl, an increase of 34,795 ft accomplished in 17 minutes while covering 117 nm.
The first level cruise began 1 mile south-west of Miranda do Douro and continued for 83 minutes, during which 671 nm were flown.
Descent started over Poirino, Italy, descending from 36,016 ft asl to 8,982 ft asl, a loss of 27,034 ft in 14 minutes and covering 94 nm.
A subsequent cruise segment began 1 mile south of Genivolta, lasting 5 minutes and encompassing 21 nm.
The next descent phase began over Borgosatollo, Italy, dropping from 8,780 ft asl to 1,986 ft asl, a decrease of 6,794 ft in 7 minutes while covering 27 nm.
Final approach to runway 28 at LIME Milan Bergamo Airport was conducted from the east on a heading of 285.0°, at 4 nm and 1,190 ft agl.
The aircraft landed on runway 28, whose length is 2,738 m; the threshold speed was 143 kt. Touchdown occurred 137 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 136 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 10 fpm and perfect alignment. Local temperature was 21 °C.
Landing roll measured 1,233 m, representing 45 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 938 nm, took 135, and used 5,518 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 entered the final approach to runway 24L at LEPA Palma de Mallorca from the north-east on a heading of 239.0° at 4 nm and 1,277 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 152 kt.
Touchdown occurred 244 m down the runway, a distance described as good, with a touchdown speed of 149 kt that was a little fast. The vertical speed at touchdown was very heavy at minus 712 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.1 m from the centreline.
Rollout used 842 m of runway, representing 28 % of the available length, and the runway alignment during rollout was perfect.
To reduce the heavy touchdown rate, refine flare timing to achieve a smoother transition to the ground while maintaining the target speed. Bringing the touchdown speed closer to the intended value will also help moderate vertical speed and improve overall landing quality.
