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 4.9 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,139 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,139 m of the 3,411 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 619 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 04 at RPVM Mactan Cebu International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,765 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 9 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northeast of RPVM Mactan Cebu International Airport. The climb took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 144 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 287 meters above sea level to 10,153 meters above sea level, an increase of 9,866.3 meters. The enroute level cruise phase began 2 miles northwest of RPSF Azagra Airstrip San Fernando, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase started 3 miles west of Magdiwang, and took 28 minutes to complete, during which the aircraft descended from 10,214 meters above sea level to 384 meters above sea level, a decrease of 9,830.3 meters. The descent covered a distance of 147 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 06 at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 60.0 degrees at an altitude of 369.8 meters above ground level, and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 06 at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport was successful, with a touchdown point located 207 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 137 knots, which was considered good, while the touchdown rate was fair at -1.5 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 0 knots at 147 degrees.
The total landing distance was 2,062 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 312 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 62 minutes. The aircraft used 2,360 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport, achieving a high score of 95.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 60.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 369.8 meters above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 06, which has a length of 3,411 meters. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 141 knots. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, located 207 meters down the runway. The touchdown speed of 137 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth landing. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -1.5 meters per second was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more gently.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 30°C and a wind speed of 0 knots. The crosswind and headwind components were also negligible, making the landing even more straightforward.
The total landing distance of 2,062 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot executed a smooth and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident in the execution of the maneuver.
