Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 9.7°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 1,545 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,545 m of the 3,987 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 468 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Marseille Provence Airport, the Airbus A321 began its journey on runway 13L, where it accelerated to liftoff speed of 159 kt after a takeoff distance of 1,558 m, which covered 46% of the runway. The aircraft encountered a crosswind of 25 kt and a headwind of 12 kt, with a temperature of 10 °C and a wind direction of 69°.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed over Saint-Victoret, France, and continued to ascend to 38,001 ft asl, a gain of 36,932 ft in 22 minutes, covering 147 nm. The enroute level cruise phase started 1 mile northwest of Giustenice, Italy, and lasted 22 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 168 nm. The descent phase began 4 miles east of Madonna di Campiglio, Italy, and the aircraft descended from 38,034 ft asl to 2,822 ft asl, a decrease of 35,212 ft in 22 minutes, covering 139 nm.
The final approach to runway 08R at Munich Airport was initiated from the west, with a heading of 84.0° at 4 nm and 1,346 ft agl. The aircraft landed on the 3,987 m runway, with a touchdown point 52 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 137 kt, and the touchdown rate was fair at -234 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance was 1,465 m, covering 37% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering 2 nm in 7 minutes. The total flight distance was 463 nm, with a flight time of 81 minutes and a fuel consumption of 3,802 kg.
The final approach to runway 08R at EDDM Munich Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 84.0° at 4 nm and 1,346 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 137 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing configuration.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown point was 52 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 130 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -234 fpm was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration. Notably, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining the aircraft's centerline during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 6 °C and a wind of 6 kt at 40°, contributed to a relatively calm environment for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,465 m, which accounted for 37% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was scored 99.4%, reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot.
