Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 2.6° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 2.5° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Begin raising the nose earlier, by 11 ft, so the flare has time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
What happened: The flare began late at 7.8 ft, 3.5 ft below the normal band, and a late flare like this usually leaves too little time to arrest the sink before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and start the flare in the normal band, around 11 ft.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,779 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 372 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Trondheim Airport, Værnes, taking 11 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 27, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 162 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 25 °C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 249°, resulting in a 4-knot crosswind and an 11-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb overhead the town of Hell in Trondelag, Norway. The climb took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 77 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from an altitude of 1,016 feet above sea level to 33,179 feet. The enroute level cruise started 10 miles north of Grong, lasting 5 minutes and covering 42 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent 15 miles east of Berg in Nordland Fylke, Norway. The descent took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 124 nautical miles, with the aircraft dropping from an altitude of 32,636 feet to 277 feet. The final approach to runway 25 at Bodø Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 263.0° at an altitude of 235 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 25, which had a length of 2,779 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 135 knots. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -330 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.6 meters.
The total landing distance was 1,277 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned from the centreline by 20.2 meters. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, taking 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 248 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 49 minutes. The aircraft used 453 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ENBO Bodø Airport, with a score of 89.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 263.0° at an altitude of 235 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 135 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 370 meters was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -330 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions did not significantly impact the landing, and the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft.
The total landing distance of 1,277 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 20.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
