Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 12 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,603 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,603 m of the 2,820 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 581 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft. The pre-flight taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 36 at Malé International Airport (VRMM), with a takeoff distance of 1,834 meters, which accounted for 70% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 158 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 34 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots blowing from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead Hulhumale in the Kaafu Atoll, Maldives. The climb phase involved an increase in altitude from 1,024 feet above sea level to 36,934 feet above sea level, a total increase of 35,910 feet, which was achieved in 26 minutes and covered a distance of 178 nautical miles.
Following the climb phase, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started at a latitude of 6.5520888 and a longitude of 75.3941138. This phase of the flight lasted for 96 minutes and covered a distance of 676 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 33 miles west of Dabhol in the State of Maharashtra, India. The descent phase involved a decrease in altitude from 36,844 feet above sea level to 8,280 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 28,564 feet, which was achieved in 23 minutes and covered a distance of 97 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a series of level cruises, which started at various points near the cities of Karjat, Neral, and Badlapur in the State of Maharashtra, India. These phases of the flight were relatively short, lasting between 2 and 4 minutes, and covered distances of between 4 and 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 6 miles north east of Navi Mumbai, India. The descent phase involved a decrease in altitude from 4,277 feet above sea level to 1,316 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 2,960 feet, which was achieved in 4 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (VABB) was made from the east, with a heading of 269.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 27, which had a length of 2,820 meters. The threshold height at 58 feet above ground level was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 141 knots. The touchdown point was 165 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots and a touchdown rate of -316 feet per minute, which was firm.
The total landing distance was 1,522 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots blowing from a direction of 227 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 987 nautical miles, which was achieved in 161 minutes, and the aircraft used a total of -626 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 has successfully landed at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, achieving a score of 94.1%. The aircraft was approaching runway 27 from the east, heading 269.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level.
The final approach was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 130 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 165 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed and rate were both good, with a firm touchdown rate of -316 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the landing process. Nevertheless, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed after touchdown.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 227°. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 2 knots each, which did not pose any significant challenges to the landing process.
The total landing distance was 1,522 meters, which is 54% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. Overall, the landing was executed well, with the aircraft achieving a good score and demonstrating a high level of proficiency in landing operations.
