Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 153 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 171 kt against a rotation target of 153 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 153 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 241 fpm.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 200 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
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.

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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
At the 305 m gate: speed above the reference speed.
At the 152 m gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,186 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 614 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, a process that took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 22R, with a takeoff distance of 1,710 meters, which is 57% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 171 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 19°C and wind blowing at 9 knots from a direction of 197°. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 8 knots. After departing from Copenhagen, the enroute climb started 2 miles south of Tarnby, where the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 299 meters above sea level to 11,230 meters above sea level, an increase of 10,931.3 meters, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 110 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 4 miles west of Rottne, in Kronoberg County, Sweden, and lasted for 33 minutes, covering a distance of 263 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 14 miles south of EFKG Kumlinge Airfield, in Aland, Finland, where it descended from 11,278 meters above sea level to 432 meters above sea level, a decrease of 10,846.2 meters, in 26 minutes and covering a distance of 126 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at EFHK Helsinki Vantaa Airport was made from the north-east, heading 227.0°, at an altitude of 381.4 meters above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the airport. The landing was made on runway 22L, which has a length of 3,186 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 133 knots.
The touchdown point was 194 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -0.8 meters per second. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 21°C and wind blowing at 10 knots from a direction of 208°, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 9 knots.
The total flight distance was 505 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 82 minutes. The aircraft used 2,835 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at EFHK Helsinki Vantaa Airport, achieving a high score of 93.3%. The final approach to runway 22L was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 227.0° at an altitude of 381.4 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 133 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown point was located 194 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. However, the touchdown speed and rate were both considered good, with a rate of -0.8 meters per second.
One notable issue during the landing was the significant misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 19.4 meters. This may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error, but it did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall safety of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 208°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions were likely favorable for the landing, and the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft throughout the approach and touchdown.
