Flight Score
Arrival
Start the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested.
What happened: The aircraft was flown onto the runway: the nose was barely raised and little of the sink was taken out, touching down at 272 fpm.
Watch for: Pitch attitude: rising steadily through the flare until the sink is checked.
See Arrival Landing
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,091 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 402 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EKAH Aarhus Airport, a process that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 28R, with the aircraft taking off after covering 822 meters, which was 30% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 143 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 25 knots at 290°. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 25 knots. After departing from Aarhus Airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile west of the airport, with the aircraft climbing from 1,068 feet above sea level to 10,984 feet above sea level, an increase of 9,915 feet in 4 minutes and covering 16 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 9 miles south of Ebeltoft, lasting 7 minutes and covering 44 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 2 miles north of Skibby, descending from 10,965 feet above sea level to 3,551 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,414 feet in 8 minutes and covering 39 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 1 mile west of Oxie, lasting 47 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles.
The final descent started 1 mile south-west of Bunkeflostrand, with the aircraft descending from 2,948 feet above sea level to 1,302 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,646 feet in 3 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 30 at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport from the south-east, heading 303.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,282 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 30, which was 2,091 meters long. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 125 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 403 meters, but the touchdown speed at 134 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -262 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 19 knots at 290°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 18 knots.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 117 nautical miles, taking 34 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,522 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, achieving a high score of 98.6%. The final approach to runway 30 was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 303.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,282 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 125 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 403 meters was within acceptable limits, further highlighting the pilot's skill and control.
However, there was a slight deviation from the ideal touchdown speed, which was recorded at 134 knots. This was slightly faster than the recommended speed, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown rate of -262 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating a moderate rate of descent during the final stages of the landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately control the aircraft's position and direction during the landing phase. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 19 knots from a direction of 290°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 18 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and improve the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 1,323 meters was 63% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase and ensure a safe and stable rollout.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft throughout the landing phase. The score of 98.6% reflects the high level of skill and expertise displayed by the pilot during the landing.
