Flight Score
Arrival
Apply small rudder corrections at touchdown, aiming at a point at the far end of the runway, to stay on the centreline.
What happened: Touchdown drifted 6.2 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 61 m.
Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,343 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,343 m of the 3,656 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 575 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320-ceo departed EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport on runway 13L. The take-off roll was 1,806 m, which is 47 % of the runway length, and rotation occurred at 149 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 16 °C, wind 13 kt from 160°, giving a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 12 kt head-wind component.
Initial climb reached 1,000 ft agl in 25 seconds, averaging 2,038 fpm and attaining 178 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,291 ft asl to 33,375 ft asl in 16 minutes, covering 106 nm, beginning about 1 mile west of Lohmar. Cruise was at 34,000 ft asl for 5 minutes, covering 41 nm, starting overhead Boffzen.
Descent began from 32,683 ft asl to 4,155 ft asl in 13 minutes, covering 86 nm, starting 1 mile west of Lehrte. A level segment at 4,000 ft asl lasted 8 minutes over 30 nm, beginning 2 miles south-west of Kisdorf. The final descent from 4,006 ft asl to 1,372 ft asl took 3 minutes and covered 9 nm, starting 1 mile north-west of Heidmoor.
On final approach to runway 15 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, the aircraft descended from 1,367 ft agl to 84 ft agl in 104 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were all met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on centreline, on speed, wings level. The configuration on final was flap 5 at 1,332 ft agl with a speed of 158 kt.
Landing was on runway 15, whose length is 3,656 m. The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was 140 kt. The flare was described as perfect. Touchdown occurred 179 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 kt, noted as a little fast, with a vertical rate of minus 62 fpm. The touchdown point was 6.2 m off the centreline. One bounce occurred on touchdown. Total landing distance was 2,282 m, which is 62 % of the runway, and the rollout was excessively misaligned by 60.7 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The whole flight covered 280 nm in 56 minutes and used 2,461 kg of fuel.
