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 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,494 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
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 01L at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a takeoff distance of 1,471 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 168 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 10 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Gardermoen, and ascended from an altitude of 1,735 feet above sea level to 28,045 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,310 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 100 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent, starting 11 miles north of Dalen, and descended from 28,237 feet above sea level to 10,799 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,437 feet, in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 50 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 19 miles northeast of Jorpeland, and maintained a steady altitude for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The level cruise phase was followed by another descent, starting 4 miles northeast of Jorpeland, and the aircraft descended from 10,022 feet above sea level to 1,319 feet above sea level, a decrease of 8,704 feet, in 8 minutes and covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 18 at ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola, was made from the north, with a heading of 179.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,293 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 18 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 435 meters, which was good, and a touchdown speed of 135 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -263 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 20 knots from a direction of 130 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,046 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area from the runway in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 190 nautical miles, and the flight used 2,105 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola, with a score of 99.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 179.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,293 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed on runway 18, which has a length of 2,494 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 142 kt, which is a common occurrence due to various factors such as wind resistance and aircraft performance. The touchdown distance of 435 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
The touchdown speed of 135 kt was a little fast, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate. The touchdown rate of -263 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down relatively quickly after touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 20 kt from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was 15 kt, while the headwind component was 13 kt. These wind conditions may have affected the aircraft's performance during the landing, but the pilot was able to compensate for them effectively.
The total landing distance of 1,046 meters was 42% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to slow down quickly after touchdown and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft was able to come to a safe stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. The score of 99.4% reflects the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot during the landing.
