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 6.3 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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed, off the runway's 3° glideslope and off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below 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 3,191 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 159 m touchdown sits inside 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 at London Gatwick Airport, taking 12 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 08R, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 163 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 180 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,202 feet above sea level to 21,799 feet above sea level, an increase of 20,597 feet in just 11 minutes, covering a distance of 55 nautical miles. The climb started 1 mile south of Horley, Surrey, England, and continued until the aircraft reached its cruising altitude.
The enroute level cruise phase began 1 mile east of the Channel Gliding Club at Dover, Kent, England, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 21,942 feet above sea level to 5,802 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,140 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 35 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued its journey, entering another enroute level cruise phase 23 miles north of Koksijde, Flanders, Belgium, which lasted for 11 minutes, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its climb from 5,741 feet above sea level to 6,611 feet above sea level, an increase of 870 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued its enroute level cruise phase, this time overhead De Lier, Provincie Zuid-Holland, The Netherlands, lasting for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 27 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 6,402 feet above sea level to 2,047 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,355 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another enroute level cruise phase, this time overhead Noordwijkerhout, Provincie Zuid-Holland, The Netherlands, lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 06 at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was made from the southwest, heading 53.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 797 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 06, with a runway length of 3,191 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 119 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 159 meters, and the touchdown speed was 117 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was very heavy at -845 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 19.2 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 179 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,247 meters, which was 39% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 225 nautical miles, taking 55 minutes, and the aircraft used 927 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, achieving an overall score of 84.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 53.0° at 2 nautical miles and 797 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 3,191 meters, and the threshold height was reported as good.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 119 knots, coming in at 117 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 159 meters. However, the touchdown rate was notably heavy, reaching -845 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach.
The aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.2 meters, which could be a minor concern for future landings. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots from 179°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the tailwind component was 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,247 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway length. Unfortunately, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned from the centerline by 19.2 meters. Overall, while the landing was successful, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
