Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 132 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 156 kt against a rotation target of 132 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 132 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Close the power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 116 kt, so the aircraft can sink naturally to the runway.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 134 kt against 116 kt, and the sink was arrested up at 37 ft rather than down near the runway. Carrying that extra speed into the flare usually leaves the aircraft floating and the touchdown long.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 116 kt on short final.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 17 kt FAST on the reference speed of 116 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,131 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 503 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied to runway 14 at LDRI Rijeka Airport and commenced the departure roll. The take-off run was 1,889 m, representing 76 % of the available runway, and the aircraft lifted off at 156 kt. Local conditions were 14 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 34°, a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
Climb began one mile south-east of Omisalj, Croatia, with the aircraft ascending from 1,206 ft asl to 4,802 ft asl, a gain of 3,596 ft achieved in two minutes while covering eight nautical miles.
Level cruise was established overhead Vrbnik and continued for 193 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 885 nm.
Descent was initiated three miles south-east of Ios, Greece, descending from 5,132 ft asl to 1,395 ft asl, a loss of 3,736 ft in five minutes and covering fifteen nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15 at LGSR Santorini Airport was flown from the north on a heading of 159.0°, intercepting the approach at four nautical miles out and 1,294 ft agl.
Landing on runway 15 was executed on a runway 2,131 m long; the threshold height of 61 ft agl was above the target, while the threshold speed of 134 kt was within expectations. Touchdown occurred 155 m beyond the touchdown zone at 129 kt with a vertical speed of minus 259 fpm, and alignment was perfect. Local weather reported 15 °C, wind 4 kt from 34°, a 3 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind. The total landing distance measured 1,281 m, equivalent to 60 % of the runway length.
Runway rollout proceeded with perfect alignment, bringing the aircraft to a stop safely on the paved surface.
In total, the flight covered 913 nm, required 202 minutes of airborne time and consumed 4,346 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 established the final approach to runway 15 at LGSR Santorini Airport from the north on a heading of 159.0° at 4 nm and 1,294 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 15 °C with wind 4 kt at 34°, a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt tail-wind component.
At threshold the aircraft was 61 ft agl, which was above the target height, and the threshold speed was recorded as 134 kt, described as good. The flare was initiated from this altitude and speed.
Touchdown occurred 155 m beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 129 kt, judged good, and the vertical rate was fair at minus 259 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 1,281 m, representing 60 % of the 2,131 m runway, and rollout alignment remained perfect.
With a score of 96.8 % the landing was strong; focus on achieving the target threshold height and moderating the touchdown vertical rate to bring the descent within tighter limits.
