Flight Score

Not the biggest loss in points — the one thing on this flight a check pilot would raise first, and the guide passage for it.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,417 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,417 m of the 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 610 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 34 at LGKR Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 34, the Boeing 737-800 used 1 600 m of runway, representing 69 % of the available length, and lifted off at 152 kt; ambient temperature at the time was 37 °C.
Climb commenced overhead Corfu, with the aircraft ascending from 964 ft asl to 37 992 ft asl, an increase of 37 028 ft achieved in 22 minutes while covering 141 nm.
Cruise began 22 miles north-east of Monopoli, Italy, and continued for 40 minutes, during which 294 nm were flown.
Descent started over Cesena, Italy, with the flight descending from 37 598 ft asl to 2 043 ft asl, a loss of 35 555 ft in 29 minutes, covering 152 nm.
The final approach to runway 28 at LIME Milan Bergamo Airport / Antonio Locatelli Air Base was executed from the east on a heading of 285.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1 238 ft agl.
Landing on runway 28 was performed with a threshold height of 82 ft agl and a threshold speed of 151 kt; touchdown occurred 188 m beyond the touchdown zone at 150 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 154 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.0 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 31 °C, wind 3 kt from 169°, a 3 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind. The total landing distance was 2 330 m, equivalent to 85 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 596 nm, lasted 102 minutes, and consumed 4 073 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 approached runway 28 at LIME Milan Bergamo Airport / Antonio Locatelli Air Base from the east on a heading of 285.0° at 4 nm and 1,238 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high, and the overall score for the flight was 79.9 %.
At the threshold the runway length was 2,738 m. The threshold height measured 82 ft agl, which was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above target at 151 kt.
Touchdown occurred 188 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 150 kt, described as fast. The vertical speed at touchdown was good at minus 154 fpm, and the aircraft was slightly off centreline by 4.0 m.
The total landing distance was 2,330 m, representing 85 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was very good.
Focus on achieving a stabilized approach by controlling sink rate to remain within limits and reducing speed and height to meet target values before the 1,000 ft gate. Align the touchdown point within the touchdown zone to keep runway usage efficient and maintain the high rollout alignment already demonstrated.
