Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 661 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Level the wings with coordinated aileron on short final so bank stays near wings-level through touchdown.
What happened: Wings were not level through the landing phase, with bank angle at 1.5° on short final.
Watch for: Watch the bank angle indicator, holding it near wings-level through the landing and touchdown.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,668 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,668 m of the 2,642 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 519 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 06L at LEB Barceló-Josep Tarradellas Airport in 10 minutes, covering approximately 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 06L, the aircraft used 1 900 m of runway (63 % of the available length) and lifted off at 166 kt; local conditions were 18 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, with a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind component.
Climb commenced 1 mile southeast of El Prat de Llobregat, with the airplane ascending from 1 026 ft asl to 30 008 ft asl-a gain of 28 982 ft-in 10 minutes while covering 93 nm.
The first level cruise began 36 miles east of Begur, lasted 3 minutes and traversed 48 nm.
A descent started 50 miles southwest of Mazargues, dropping from 29 999 ft asl to 24 554 ft asl (-5 446 ft) in 3 minutes and covering 33 nm.
The next cruise segment originated 17 miles southwest of Mazargues, persisted for 64 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
A subsequent descent began again 17 miles southwest of Mazargues, falling from 24 554 ft asl to 10 008 ft asl (-14 545 ft) over 7 minutes and spanning 62 nm.
A brief cruise over Fox lasted 2 minutes and covered 8 nm.
Descent continued 2 miles south of Villecroze, with altitude decreasing from 10 010 ft asl to 4 443 ft asl (-5 567 ft) in 5 minutes across 23 nm.
Another cruise segment started 3 miles south of Saint-Raphael, lasted 5 minutes and covered 16 nm.
The final descent commenced 1 mile southeast of Cannes, dropping from 3 452 ft asl to 1 241 ft asl (-2 211 ft) in 3 minutes while covering 7 nm.
On final approach to runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport, the aircraft approached from the southwest on a heading of 45.0°, at 4 nm and 1 211 ft agl.
Landing on runway 04L was executed with a runway length of 2 642 m; the threshold speed was 142 kt, touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the touchdown zone at 137 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was -203 fpm, with alignment described as very good. Local weather reported 17 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, and the total landing distance measured 1 586 m, representing 60 % of the runway.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 299 nm, lasted 52 minutes, and consumed 2 579 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 executed the final approach to runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d’Azur from the south-west, tracking a heading of 45.0 ° at 4 NM and 1,211 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable because the sink rate was too high; ambient conditions were 17 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 269 °, a 1 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt tailwind component.
During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft presented a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 142 kt.
Touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a touchdown speed of 137 kt, noted as a little fast, and a fair vertical rate of minus 203 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The rollout was characterised by very good runway alignment and a total landing distance of 1,586 m, representing 60 % of the 2,642 m runway length.
Refine the approach to achieve a stabilized profile by moderating the sink rate before the 1,000 ft gate, and reduce the touchdown speed toward the target VREF to minimise excess kinetic energy while preserving the excellent alignment already demonstrated.
