Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 0 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Select landing flap before the stabilisation gate, so the approach configuration, speed, and touchdown point are all set from the start.
What happened: Landing flap was left unset for the approach, and the threshold was crossed at 90 kt, well above the target speed. Crossing the threshold fast like this usually carries the touchdown long, and here it touched down 238 m past the aim point.
Watch for: Flap indicator: landing flap selected before the gate, airspeed indicator settling at 83 kt by the threshold.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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: no landing flap set.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,092 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 695 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
