The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 31 at Malta International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,556 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 166 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 25 knots from a direction of 290 degrees.
The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 23 knots. As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Luqa, Malta, and continued to ascend to a maximum altitude of 36,009 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 130 nautical miles and took 23 minutes to complete, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 34,680 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile southwest of Marinella, Sicilia, Italy. This phase of the flight lasted for 96 minutes and covered a distance of 606 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Wald, Kanton Zurich, Switzerland. During this phase, the aircraft descended from a maximum altitude of 36,024 feet above sea level to a minimum altitude of 2,822 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,202 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 24 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 14 at Zürich Airport was made from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 137.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,412 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 14 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 137 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance was 311 meters, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was very hard, at -505 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.4 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 1 degree. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,486 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.7 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 769 nautical miles and took 152 minutes to complete, using a total of 6,264 kilograms of fuel.

The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed on runway 14 at Zürich Airport (LSZH) with a score of 86.8%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,412 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a threshold speed of 139 knots, which was within the target range.
However, there were a few areas for improvement. The threshold height at 74 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 137 knots was a little fast, which could have contributed to the hard touchdown rate of -505 feet per minute (fpm). A hard touchdown rate can be a concern for the aircraft's safety and comfort.
The landing distance of 1,486 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length, was within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.4 meters from the centreline, which could have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 14.7 meters from the centreline, which may have been caused by the aircraft's wheels not being perfectly aligned with the runway centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 1°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which was not significant enough to affect the aircraft's landing performance. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, the Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed on runway 14 at Zürich Airport with a score of 86.8%.
