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 4.7 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 1,917 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,917 m of the 2,395 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 627 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 26 at LOWI Innsbruck Airport. The takeoff distance was 988 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 3°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 269°.
As the aircraft climbed away from Innsbruck, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 2,919 feet above sea level to 31,793 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,875 feet. The enroute level cruise then began overhead Hattenhofen in Germany, lasting 13 minutes and covering 96 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started overhead ETOU Wiesbaden Army Airfield in Germany, where the aircraft descended from 32,230 feet above sea level to 1,456 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,775 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport was made from the north-east, heading 232.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,313 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport was successful, with a total landing distance of 1,836 meters, which accounted for 77% of the runway. The touchdown point was 211 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 143 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -381 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -1°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 360°.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took approximately 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 306 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 61 minutes. The aircraft used 2,734 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, achieving a score of 91.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 232.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,313 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed on the runway with a threshold height that was satisfactory.
The touchdown speed of 143 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been slightly aggressive in their approach. However, the touchdown point was 211 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was also a little fast, but the firm touchdown rate of -381 feet per minute suggests that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 360°. This resulted in a very minimal crosswind component of 2 knots and a tailwind component of 1 knot. The runway length of 2,395 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 1,836 meters, which was 77% of the runway length.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was executed with good control and minimal deviations from the target parameters, resulting in a score of 91.7%.
