Flight Score
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: centreline 4.9° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 3.9° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,310 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 583 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A321 taxied from the parking area to runway 31R at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport, a movement that lasted 13 minutes and covered 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 31R, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,660 m, representing 44 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 161 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 28 °C with wind 17 kt from 269°, providing a crosswind component of 13 kt and a headwind component of 12 kt.
Climb commenced 1 mile east of Eil, Germany, with the flight ascending from 1,184 ft asl to 37,003 ft asl, a gain of 35,819 ft achieved in 26 minutes while covering 179 nm.
The first cruise segment began 1 mile east of Dentlein am Forst, Bavaria, and persisted for 78 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 618 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 15 miles south-west of Kavaje, Albania, with the aircraft descending from 37,028 ft asl to 4,151 ft asl, a loss of 32,877 ft in 18 minutes and a distance of 108 nm.
A brief cruise phase followed, initiating 8 miles south-west of Argyrades, Greece, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nm.
Subsequent descent began 3 miles south-west of Vitalades, Greece, with altitude decreasing from 3,741 ft asl to 1,307 ft asl, a reduction of 2,435 ft over 3 minutes and a distance of 10 nm.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGKR Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport was conducted from the south, on a heading of 344.0°, at 4 nm and 1,293 ft agl.
Landing on runway 34 was executed with a runway length of 2,313 m; the threshold height of 60 ft was slightly above target and the threshold speed was 137 kt. Touchdown occurred 170 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 128 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 269 fpm and very good alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 33 °C, wind 6 kt from 13°, a crosswind of 3 kt and a headwind of 6 kt.
Rollout distance measured 1,298 m, representing 56 % of the runway, and alignment during rollout was perfect.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 8 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 931 nm, required 149 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 6,850 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGKR Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport was flown from the south on a heading of 344.0° at 4 nm and 1,293 ft agl, with ambient temperature 33 °C, wind 6 kt from 13°, a 3 kt cross-component and a 6 kt headwind component.
At the threshold the height was slightly above target and the threshold speed was good at 137 kt, indicating the aircraft was correctly configured for the flare.
Touchdown occurred 170 m beyond the designated touchdown zone; the aircraft’s speed at touchdown was good at 128 kt, the vertical rate was fair at minus 269 fpm, and runway-touchdown alignment was very good.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,298 m, representing 56 % of the 2,313 m runway, and runway-rollout alignment was perfect.
To tighten the landing envelope, aim for the exact target threshold height and moderate the descent rate to bring the vertical speed closer to zero at touchdown; these adjustments will keep the touchdown point within the intended zone while preserving the high overall score.
