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 13 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up, glideslope 5.3° against the runway's 3°, centreline 8.0° off, against a 1° limit, wings 13° of bank, against a 10° limit and speed 83 kt FAST on the reference speed of 126 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 2,420 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 4.9° against the runway's 3°, centreline 1.4° off, against a 1° limit and speed 79 kt FAST on the reference speed of 126 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,656 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,656 m of the 2,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 847 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.94 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A220-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 28 at KSAV Savannah Hilton Head International Airport in 4 minutes, covering 2 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 28 at KSAV, accelerating over a takeoff distance of 1,483 m (52 % of the runway) and achieving a liftoff speed of 139 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 36 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, with a 0 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.
Climb began 1 mile north east of Pooler, Georgia, with the aircraft ascending from 991 ft asl to 37,103 ft asl, a gain of 36,112 ft achieved in 29 minutes while covering 197 nm.
The first level cruise started 3 miles north east of Hallsboro, North Carolina, lasting 55 minutes and spanning 450 nm.
Descent commenced 18 miles south east of Fire Island, New York, descending from 37,092 ft asl to 16,172 ft asl, a loss of 20,920 ft in 10 minutes over 80 nm.
A subsequent cruise segment began 5 miles north of New Shoreham, Rhode Island, lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nm.
Descent resumed 4 miles south east of Narragansett Pier, Rhode Island, with altitude decreasing from 15,724 ft asl to 4,536 ft asl, a reduction of 11,188 ft in 10 minutes across 49 nm.
The aircraft then entered a cruise phase 1 mile south west of Warwick, Rhode Island, lasting 7 minutes and covering 30 nm.
Descent continued 2 miles south of Rehoboth, Massachusetts, dropping from 4,534 ft asl to 3,086 ft asl, a loss of 1,449 ft in 2 minutes over 7 nm.
A final cruise segment started 2 miles north of Rehoboth, Massachusetts, lasting 2 minutes and covering 9 nm.
The final approach to runway 23 at KPVD Theodore Francis Green State Airport was flown from the north east, on a heading of 195.0° at 3 nm and 1,881 ft agl.
Landing on runway 23, which is 2,182 m long, the aircraft touched down with a threshold speed of 185 kt, though the actual touchdown speed was 169 kt. The touchdown point was 449 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 494 fpm and a lateral deviation of 4.5 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 29 °C, wind 3 kt from 140°, with a 2 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind.
The total landing distance recorded was 1,593 m, representing
The Airbus A220-300 entered the final approach to runway 23 at KPVD Theodore Francis Green State Airport from the north-east on a heading of 195.0° at 3 nm and 1,881 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, with sink rate too high, off the glideslope and off the centreline.
During the threshold and flare phase the runway presented a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 185 kt. Ambient temperature was 29 °C with wind 3 kt from 140°, including a 2 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt headwind.
Touchdown occurred 449 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 169 kt described as a little fast. The touchdown rate was hard at minus 494 fpm and the aircraft was slightly misaligned by 4.5 m from the centreline. Total landing distance measured 1,593 m, representing 73 % of the runway length.
Rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft remained on the centreline through the deceleration phase.
Reduce the threshold speed toward the target value to lessen the excess kinetic energy on touchdown, and refine flare timing to achieve a softer touchdown rate and keep the touchdown point within the designated zone.
