Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.4 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 75 m past the target, landing at 532 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
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: speed 34 kt FAST on the reference speed of 142 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 3,092 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 532 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, the Airbus A320 began its takeoff roll on runway 04R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 170 kt. The aircraft cleared the runway threshold in 1,593 meters, utilizing 48% of the available length. Local weather conditions at the time featured a temperature of 14 °C, with a wind blowing at 19 kt from 340 °, resulting in a crosswind of 16 kt and a headwind of 9 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it transitioned into a steady ascent, reaching a cruising altitude of 23,993 ft in 13 minutes. The enroute climb phase covered a distance of 90 nm, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 22,951 ft. Following a brief level cruise phase, the aircraft began its descent, reducing its altitude by 22,600 ft in 14 minutes as it covered a distance of 68 nm. The descent phase concluded with the aircraft establishing an approach to runway 23 at Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, with a heading of 230.0 ° and an altitude of 1,361 ft.
The final approach and landing phase were executed with a threshold speed of 142 kt, resulting in a touchdown speed of 136 kt, which was slightly above the desired value. The touchdown point was 123 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,334 meters, utilizing 48% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 193 nm, with a flight time of 38 minutes and a fuel consumption of 1,777 kg.
The final approach to runway 23 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 230.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,361 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 142 knots, well within the acceptable range.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was slightly above the optimal range, but the touchdown rate of -179 feet per minute was good, indicating a controlled descent. However, the touchdown point was 123 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which may have been due to a slight overestimation of the landing distance. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centreline, which may have been a result of the crosswind component of 11 knots.
Despite the minor deviations, the overall landing performance was impressive, with a total landing distance of 1,334 meters, accounting for 48% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating excellent control and coordination by the pilots. The landing was completed in a temperature of 12°C and a wind of 12 knots at 300°, with a crosswind of 11 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The overall score for this landing was 98.7%, a testament to the pilots' skill and expertise.
