Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 12°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,542 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 422 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Naples International Airport (LIRN), the Airbus A320 began its journey with a taxiing period of 7 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles to reach the runway. Runway 24 was selected for departure, and the aircraft accelerated down the 1,494-meter-long runway, utilizing 73% of its length to achieve liftoff at a speed of 148 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 11°C, with a gentle tailwind of 1 knot and a crosswind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it passed overhead Vicaria, Campania, Italy, and continued to ascend to 36,009 feet above sea level, a gain of 34,744 feet in just 20 minutes, covering a distance of 134 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase commenced 14 miles northeast of Ortona, Abruzzo, Italy, and lasted for 54 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 430 nautical miles. The descent phase began 1 mile southeast of Dobriv, Plzensky kraj, Czech Republic, and the aircraft descended from 35,493 feet to 6,004 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,489 feet in just 14 minutes, covering 91 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a series of short level cruise phases, each lasting only a few minutes, before commencing its final approach to runway 22 at Dresden Airport (EDDC).
The final approach to runway 22 was conducted from the northeast, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway. The landing was executed at a threshold speed slightly above the target, at 136 knots, and the touchdown distance was good at 421 meters. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 132 knots, but the touchdown rate was excellent at -53 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance was 1,105 meters, accounting for 43% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 698 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 107 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 4,145 kilograms.
The aircraft, an Airbus A320, successfully executed a precise approach to runway 22 at EDDC Dresden Airport from the north east, aligning with the heading of 221.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,228 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 136 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 421 meters, with a touchdown speed of 132 knots, which was a little fast. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate was exceptional at -53 feet per minute, showcasing the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 310°, contributed to a relatively calm landing environment, with a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The aircraft's rollout was equally impressive, with perfect alignment on the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 1,105 meters, accounting for 43% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was deemed a success, with a score of 100.0% reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilots.
