Flight Score
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 318 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 412 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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 1,728 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,728 m of the 3,004 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 750 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 19R at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 19R, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,427 m, representing 43 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 151 kt. Ambient conditions were 28 °C with a 15 kt wind from 190°, providing a 15 kt headwind and zero crosswind.
The climb commenced overhead ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda, climbing from 1,122 ft asl to 38,051 ft asl, an altitude gain of 36,929 ft achieved in 16 minutes while traversing 101 nm.
Cruise began 5 mi south-west of Valdemarsvik in Östergötland County and continued for 138 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 1,026 nm at level flight.
Descent started 1 mi south of Afa, Corse, with the aircraft descending from 38,971 ft asl to 4,198 ft asl, a loss of 34,774 ft over 15 minutes and a distance of 98 nm.
A brief cruise segment was flown overhead Porto Torres, Sardegna, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nm.
The next descent began 6 mi north-east of Porto Torres, reducing altitude from 4,014 ft asl to 3,260 ft asl, a decrease of 753 ft in 2 minutes while traveling 6 nm.
A subsequent cruise segment started 6 mi north of Porto Torres, lasting another 2 minutes and adding 6 nm to the flight path.
The final descent over Porto Torres brought the aircraft from 3,152 ft asl to 1,379 ft asl, a loss of 1,773 ft in 3 minutes and covering 9 nm.
The final approach to runway 20 at LIEA Alghero-Fertilia Airport was executed from the north-east, on a heading of 205.0° at 4 nm and 1,288 ft agl.
Landing on runway 20 occurred with a threshold height of 72 ft agl and a threshold speed of 128 kt. Touchdown was recorded 329 m beyond the touchdown zone at 118 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 358 fpm and a lateral deviation of 11.3 m from the centreline. Local weather was 35 °C, wind 10 kt from 280° (10 kt crosswind, 3 kt headwind). The total landing distance was 1,643 m, representing 55 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was off by 11.1 m from centreline.
In total, the flight covered 1,259 nm, lasted 186 minutes, and consumed 6,290 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ENTC Tromsø Airport, Langnes, with a score of 98.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 193.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,665 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 18, which has a length of 1,999 meters.
The landing was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it touched down on the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 143 kt, which may have been due to various factors such as wind conditions or pilot judgment. The touchdown distance of 362 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively after touchdown.
Despite the good touchdown distance, the touchdown speed of 139 kt was a little fast, which may have resulted in a firm touchdown rate of -302 feet per minute (fpm). This could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and may have affected the overall landing quality. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, which may have required the pilots to make some adjustments during the rollout.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -6°C and a wind speed of 7 kt from 250°. The crosswind component was 6 kt, while the headwind component was 4 kt. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing, but the pilots were able to manage them effectively.
The total landing distance of 1,267 meters was 63% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively after touchdown and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout and bring it to a safe stop. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 98.3% indicating a high level of proficiency.
