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 9.6 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
At the 305 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 152 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,977 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 474 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an A21N, then departed from runway 24R at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport. The takeoff distance was 2,010 meters, which is 67% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 171 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 220°. The crosswind was negligible, and the headwind was 1 knot. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile west of the airport, rising from an altitude of 366 meters above sea level to 7,926 meters above sea level, an increase of 7,560.1 meters, in 15 minutes and covering a distance of 93 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile northeast of Steigra, Germany, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 7,930 meters above sea level to 10,922 meters above sea level, an increase of 2,992.6 meters, in 10 minutes and covering a distance of 85 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead Burgwindheim, Germany, and lasted for 23 minutes, covering a distance of 181 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its descent, starting from an altitude of 10,672 meters above sea level to 5,816 meters above sea level, a decrease of 4,855.6 meters, in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 63 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead Craveggia, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent, this time from 5,799 meters above sea level to 4,269 meters above sea level, a decrease of 1,530.3 meters, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead Cassano Magnago, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent, this time from 4,268 meters above sea level to 1,222 meters above sea level, a decrease of 3,046.2 meters, in 7 minutes and covering a distance of 30 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time 1 mile northeast of Ottobiano, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final descent, starting from an altitude of 1,136 meters above sea level to 917 meters above sea level, a decrease of 219.1 meters, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead LIEW Aviosuperficie Natale/Battistoni Cassolnovo, Italy, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35R at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 349.0° at an altitude of 386.6 meters above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 35R, which has a length of 2,977 meters. The threshold speed was good at 143 knots, and the touchdown point was 59 meters beyond the touchdown zone.

The aircraft, identified as A21N, successfully landed at Milan Malpensa International Airport (LIMC) on runway 35R. The final approach was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 349.0° at an altitude of 386.6 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a good approach speed, with a threshold speed of 143 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 59 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, but still within the runway's length of 2,977 meters. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -0.6 meters per second was also smooth, suggesting that the aircraft's engines were well-managed during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 49°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a stable and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 1,106 meters was 37% of the runway's length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilots executed a well-planned and executed landing, taking into account the aircraft's performance and the runway's characteristics. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, with a score of 98.8% indicating an exceptional performance. The pilots' skills and experience were evident in their ability to navigate the aircraft safely and efficiently, despite the presence of a gentle wind.
