Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.7 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Add power on final to hold 131 kt across the threshold.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 123 kt, 8 kt below VREF, and low energy like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown at 522 fpm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 131 kt at the threshold
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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: sink rate 1,909 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and glideslope 4.1° against the runway's 3°.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,134 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 15 m short of the threshold. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 25 at EGNT Newcastle Airport, a movement that lasted 7 minutes and covered 3 nm.
Takeoff roll on runway 25 was completed with a distance of 1,310 m, representing 60 % of the available runway, and rotation was achieved at 151 kt; local conditions were 17 °C temperature, wind 1 kt from 270°, with a 1 kt headwind and no cross-wind component.
Climb began 1 nm south-east of Ponteland, rising from 1,346 ft asl to 8,009 ft asl, an increase of 6,662 ft in 3 minutes while covering 14 nm.
Level cruise commenced overhead Castleside, lasting 2 minutes and extending 7 nm.
A second climb segment started 2 nm west of Crook, ascending from 8,060 ft asl to 27,361 ft asl, an increase of 19,301 ft in 9 minutes and covering 54 nm.
Subsequent cruise was established over Chatburn, persisting for 9 minutes and spanning 61 nm.
Descent initiated over Ellesmere, descending from 27,994 ft asl to 2,502 ft asl, a loss of 25,491 ft in 21 minutes while traversing 109 nm.
A brief climb followed over Ewenny, climbing from 2,479 ft asl to 2,007 ft asl, an increase of 472 ft in 2 minutes and covering 6 nm.
Final approach to runway 12 at EGFF Cardiff International Airport reduced altitude from 1,950 ft agl to 52 ft agl in 91 seconds, with the aircraft scoring on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 12 was executed with a touchdown 15 m short of the threshold; threshold speed was slightly below target at 123 kt, touchdown speed recorded at 120 kt, and a hard touchdown rate of minus 523 fpm, while alignment was very good; weather at the time was 15 °C, wind 1 kt from 270°, with a 1 kt tailwind and no cross-wind.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,167 m, equivalent to 55 % of the runway, and the aircraft’s centreline alignment was offset by 15.6 m.
In total the flight covered 259 nm, required 54 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 2,050 kg of fuel.
