Flight Score
Departure
Ease the back pressure on the yoke after rotation so the pitch change is smoother and g force stays lower.
What happened: During the initial climb the average g force reached 1.3 g, a high value for that phase.
Watch for: G meter: smooth, steady value in the normal climb band
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 289 m past the target, landing at 746 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 1,463 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,463 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 746 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from London Heathrow Airport, the Airbus A319 began its takeoff roll on runway 09L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 155 kt in 1,186 meters, which was 33% of the available runway length. The aircraft then climbed away from the airport, overcoming a crosswind of 15 kt and a tailwind of 3 kt, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind direction of 350 °.
As the aircraft transitioned to the enroute climb phase, it ascended from 1,104 ft to 24,186 ft in 8 minutes, covering 43 nm. The climb was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with a total ascent of 23,082 ft. Following a brief level cruise phase, the aircraft began its descent from 23,981 ft to 12,651 ft in 12 minutes, covering 68 nm. This was followed by another level cruise phase, lasting 16 minutes, before the aircraft commenced its final descent to 1,615 ft asl. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27 at Guernsey Airport, aligning itself with the runway and descending from 1,285 ft agl.
The Airbus A319 touched down on runway 27 at a speed of 108 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of -321 fpm. The aircraft used more than 50% of the available runway, but the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Following touchdown, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 183 nm, with a total fuel consumption of 1,770 kg and a flight duration of 38 minutes. The aircraft's performance was characterized by a good threshold speed and a firm touchdown rate, indicating a successful landing.
The final approach to runway 27 at EGJB Guernsey Airport from the east, heading 268.0° at 4 nm and 1,285 ft agl, was executed with good approach quality. The aircraft maintained a stable and controlled descent throughout the approach, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. The threshold speed of 124 kt was also satisfactory, indicating a well-coordinated and controlled approach.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, it became apparent that the touchdown point was very long, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway. However, the touchdown speed of 108 kt was good, and the firm touchdown rate of -321 fpm suggested a controlled and stable touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind of 5 kt at 80°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,480 m was 101% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft had utilized the full length of the runway to come to a stop. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 82.6% reflecting the good approach quality, controlled touchdown, and stable rollout.
