Flight Score
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,551 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,551 m of the 3,342 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 367 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, the Airbus A320 began its journey with a taxiing phase that lasted 16 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As the aircraft reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 01L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 160 knots. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 20°C, with a wind speed of 20 knots from a direction of 300°, resulting in a crosswind component of 20 knots and a headwind component of 5 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a distance of 146 nautical miles in 23 minutes, ascending from 1,715 feet above sea level to 36,010 feet. The climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which lasted for 69 minutes and covered a distance of 497 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, initially from 35,272 feet to 9,634 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 109 nautical miles. The descent was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining its altitude for short periods of time before resuming its descent. The final approach to runway 06 at Paris-Orly Airport was initiated from a distance of 4 nautical miles, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 62.0° and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level.
The Airbus A320 landed on runway 06 at Paris-Orly Airport, with a touchdown distance of 371 meters and a touchdown speed of 134 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -357 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.6 meters. The total landing distance was 1,476 meters, accounting for 44% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles in 10 minutes. The total flight distance was 874 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 5,972 kilograms.
The aircraft touched down on runway 06 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 139 kt was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and airspeed. The touchdown distance of 371 m was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled and stable approach.
However, the touchdown speed of 134 kt was slightly above the recommended threshold, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -357 fpm. This may have been due to the pilot's decision to maintain a higher airspeed to ensure a stable approach, but it did result in a slightly more aggressive touchdown. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 4.6 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path.
Despite the minor deviations, the overall landing was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 1,476 m, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and a light wind of 7 kt at 20 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing. Overall, the landing score was 97.9%, reflecting a well-executed approach and touchdown, but with some minor deviations in terms of touchdown speed and alignment.
