Flight Score
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 122 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 335 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 7 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 139 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 1,903 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 308 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 26L at EDDM Munich Airport, a movement that lasted 5 minutes and covered 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 26L, the aircraft used a takeoff distance of 2,331 m, representing 59 % of the runway, and lifted off at 166 kt. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 27 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 180 °, a cross-wind component of 2 kt and a head-wind component of 0 kt.
The initial climb began overhead Hallbergmoos in Bavaria, Germany, climbing from 2,431 ft asl to 37,010 ft asl - an increase of 34,578 ft - over 23 minutes while covering 169 nm.
Level cruise commenced 3 miles north of Predmeja in Slovenia and continued for 56 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 450 nm.
A subsequent climb started 1 mile south of Kelcyre in Albania, raising altitude from 37,009 ft asl to 37,766 ft asl - a gain of 758 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 12 nm.
The next cruise segment began 6 miles south-east of Permet in Albania, lasting 20 minutes and encompassing 151 nm of flight.
Descent operations were initiated 2 miles south-east of Exarkhos in Central Greece, descending from 38,032 ft asl to 1,541 ft asl - a loss of 36,492 ft - over 24 minutes and covering 153 nm.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGMK Mykonos Island National Airport was flown from the south, on a heading of 339.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,151 ft agl.
Landing on runway 34, which is 1,900 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 132 kt. Touchdown occurred 306 m down the runway at 128 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 295 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 29 °C, wind 10 kt from 359 °, a cross-wind of 3 kt and a head-wind of 9 kt. The total landing distance was 904 m, representing 48 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 944 nm, required 134 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 5,195 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 made its final approach to runway 34 at LGMK Mykonos Island National Airport from the south on a heading of 339.0° at 4 nm and 1,151 ft agl. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 132 kt. The aircraft touched down 306 m from the threshold, and the touchdown speed was good at 128 kt.
The touchdown rate was fair at minus 295 fpm and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The runway length is 1,900 m; total landing distance was 904 m, 48 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good. Local weather was 29 °C with wind 10 kt from 359°, a 3 kt crosswind component and a 9 kt headwind.
To improve the already high score, reduce the sink rate to achieve a stabilized approach at the 1,000 ft gate, and aim for a gentler touchdown rate to further smooth the landing.
