Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 170 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 39 kt fast at 209 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 170 kt in the climb
Arrival
Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.
What happened: The touchdown rate was 228 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.
Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 228 fpm next time
Speed at this height is usually bought with gradient. It's rarely dangerous and it's often just an early acceleration, but with flaps still out you may be heading towards the flap limit and a flat fast climb puts you at the acceleration altitude with the cleaning-up still to do.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,739 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 370 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320neo taxied from the parking area to runway 08L at EGKK London Gatwick Airport in 9 minutes, covering 2 nm.
Take-off was performed on runway 08L. The aircraft used 853 m of runway, which is 38 % of the available length. Rotation occurred at 114 kt. Local weather at departure was temperature 16 °C, wind 7 kt from 100°, giving a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 7 kt head-wind component.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 23 seconds, averaging 2,023 fpm and reaching 218 kt at the top of the climb. The subsequent climb from 1,221 ft asl to 5,000 ft asl lasted 2 minutes, covering 8 nm and beginning 1 mile south of Horley.
The aircraft then levelled at 5,000 ft asl for 10 minutes, covering 43 nm, starting 1 mile south of Ardingly.
Descent from 4,993 ft asl to 1,053 ft asl took 5 minutes and covered 17 nm, beginning 1 mile north of EGYY Lukesfield Airstrip Staplehurst. A further level segment at 1,100 ft asl lasted 10 minutes, covering 20 nm, starting overhead Allhallows.
Final approach to runway 23 at EGMC London Southend Airport began with a descent from 970 ft agl to 70 ft agl in 107 seconds. Stabilisation checks were performed at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway; all checks were met: gear down, landing flap, sink rate, on glideslope, on centreline, on speed, wings level. Configuration on final was gear down at 1,306 ft agl at 162 kt, and final flap position 4 at 992 ft agl at 132 kt.
Landing on runway 23 was completed with a good threshold height. Threshold speed was 119 kt. The flare was described as excellent, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 370 m down the runway at 116 kt, a little fast, with a fair touchdown rate of minus 229 fpm and very good runway-touchdown alignment. No bounce occurred.
Total landing distance was 1,031 m, representing 59 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good. Local weather at landing was temperature 13 °C, wind 12 kt from 102°, giving a 9 kt cross-wind component and an 8 kt tail-wind component.
The flight covered 97 nm in 33 minutes and used 1,581 kg of fuel.
The Bonanza G36 aircraft successfully landed at EGFE Haverfordwest Airport, achieving a score of 95.2%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 210.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,219 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 21, which has a length of 1,049 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was above the target at 88 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 421 meters. The touchdown speed of 64 knots was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -159 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory.
However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.3 meters. Additionally, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 20 knots at 234°, resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 18 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot managed to maintain control of the aircraft.
The total landing distance was 518 meters, which is 49% of the runway length. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.9 meters. Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of alignment and control during the rollout phase.
