Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 1,554 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,554 m of the 3,988 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 433 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Manchester Airport (EGCC), the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of approximately 1 nautical mile. With the local weather conditions at 20 °C and a gentle headwind of 2 kt, the aircraft took off from runway 05L, utilizing 64% of the available runway length. The takeoff distance was 1,551 meters, and the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 kt.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of Manchester Airport, rising from 1,250 ft to 4,070 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, first overhead Haughton Green, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles, and later over Cley next the Sea, lasting 45 minutes and covering 356 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb to its maximum cruising altitude, reaching 32,977 ft in 16 minutes, covering 109 nautical miles. The descent phase began overhead EDSM Stüde Bernsteinsee Airfield Sassenburg, Germany, where the aircraft descended from 33,014 ft to 8,008 ft in 15 minutes, covering 99 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, Berlin Brandenburg Airport (EDDB), it entered a final descent phase, beginning 2 miles west of Brueck, Germany, and descending from 8,234 ft to 1,521 ft in 7 minutes, covering 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then lined up for a landing on runway 06R, with a threshold speed of 138 kt and a touchdown speed of 134 kt, which was slightly fast. The touchdown distance was 438 meters, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline. 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 624 nautical miles, taking 101 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,975 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 06R at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport from the south west was executed with good quality, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 69.0° at 4 nm and 1,359 ft above ground level. The approach was conducted in a 7 kt headwind and a 4 kt crosswind, with a temperature of 8 °C. The threshold height was good, allowing for a smooth transition to the runway.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the threshold speed of 138 kt was achieved, but the touchdown speed of 134 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -330 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 m from the centreline. The touchdown distance of 438 m was good, and the total landing distance of 1,476 m was 37% of the runway length, indicating a well-controlled rollout.
The rollout phase was executed with very good alignment, with the aircraft staying on the centreline. The overall performance of the landing was good, with a score of 97.6%. The slight misalignment on touchdown and the fast touchdown speed were the only areas for improvement. Overall, the landing was well-executed, and the aircraft came to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
