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 5.9 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,395 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 331 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A321 aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 27R at London Heathrow Airport (EGLL), with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 160 knots after covering a takeoff distance of 1,449 meters, which was 40% of the runway length.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots blowing from a direction of 240°. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 13 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Harmondsworth in Greater London, England. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,055 feet above sea level to 6,020 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,965 feet, in just 3 minutes and covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began overhead Addlestone in Surrey, England, and lasted for 7 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 35 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time starting 1 mile south of Snodland in Kent, England. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 6,003 feet above sea level to 32,977 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,974 feet, in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase resumed 1 mile south east of Staden in Flanders, Belgium, and lasted for 9 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 75 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile west of Lincent in Wallonia, Belgium. During this descent, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 33,020 feet above sea level to 4,186 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,834 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 111 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase was brief, lasting only 2 minutes, as the aircraft covered a distance of 5 nautical miles 1 mile north west of Hattingen in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 3 miles south of Essen in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. During this descent, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,934 feet above sea level to 1,541 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,393 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL) was made from the north east, with the aircraft heading 233.0° at an altitude of 1,405 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on a runway length of 2,395 meters, with the threshold height being good. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 138 knots, while the touchdown distance was good at 333 meters. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 131 knots, and the touchdown rate was hard at -466 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.7 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 1°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots blowing from a direction of 150°. This resulted in a crosswind of 19 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1
The Airbus A321 successfully landed on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, achieving a score of 95.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 233.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,405 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 2,395 meters, and the threshold height was reported as good.
During the final approach, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the target threshold speed of 137 kt, reaching 138 kt. The touchdown distance was satisfactory at 333 meters, but the touchdown speed of 131 kt was a little faster than desired. The touchdown rate was also reported as hard, with a rate of -466 feet per minute (fpm). Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.7 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 1°C and a wind speed of 19 kt from a direction of 150°. This resulted in a crosswind of 19 kt and a headwind of 2 kt. The total landing distance was 1,377 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown.
