Flight Score
Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 30 kt fast at 200 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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: centreline 3.0° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,830 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,830 m of the 3,044 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 509 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP) on runway 13L, the Airbus A320 began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 146 kt in a distance of 1,288 m, which accounted for 35% of the available runway length. The aircraft then transitioned into a steady climb, leaving the airport behind and entering the enroute phase. The climb started overhead Vecses, a small town in Pest megye, Hungary, where the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,130 ft above sea level to 3,584 ft, a vertical gain of 2,454 ft, in just 1 minute while covering a horizontal distance of 5 nm.
As the aircraft continued on its journey, it began its descent 2 miles southwest of Ullo, another town in Pest megye, Hungary. The descent from 3,592 ft to 1,730 ft, a decrease of 1,862 ft, took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 15 nm. The aircraft then entered the final approach phase, aligning itself with runway 13R at LHBP, which was 3,001 m long. The approach was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 122.0° and at an altitude of 1,281 ft above ground level, 4 nm from the runway threshold. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target value of 129 kt, and the touchdown point was 95 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 122 kt, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -217 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.8 m from the centreline.
The total landing distance was 1,751 m, accounting for 58% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft used a total of 28 nm of distance during the flight, which took approximately 10 minutes to complete, and consumed 554 kg of fuel. The flight was executed under good weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C at departure and 26 °C at landing, and a light headwind of 1 kt at 128° and 135°, respectively.
The aircraft touched down on runway 13R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport with a threshold height that met expectations. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 129 kt. The approach quality was otherwise satisfactory, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 122.0° from a distance of 4 nm and an altitude of 1,281 ft above ground level.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it touched down 95 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 122 kt, which was a little faster than desired. The touchdown rate of -217 fpm was fair, indicating a relatively smooth transition from the air to the ground. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.8 m from the centreline, the aircraft's centreline alignment during the rollout phase was very good.
The total landing distance of 1,751 m was 58% of the runway length, which is a reasonable figure considering the local weather conditions. The temperature was 26 °C, and the wind was minimal, with a speed of 1 kt at 135°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind was 1 kt. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 97.2%.
