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 4.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 305 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 406 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,416 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,416 m of the 2,512 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 966 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 25, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, accelerating down the 1,667-meter stretch of the runway, which accounted for 58% of its total length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 161 knots, with a local temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a gentle tailwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Rome, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,040 feet above sea level to 39,998 feet in a mere 23 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a 55-minute level cruise, during which the aircraft maintained a steady altitude, covering a distance of 418 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase commenced 2 miles north of Bad Schwalbach, Germany, and saw the aircraft descend from 39,995 feet to 1,395 feet in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 169 nautical miles. The final approach to Eindhoven Airport's runway 21 was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 215.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,307 feet above ground level.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 21 at Eindhoven Airport, with a touchdown point located 549 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly above the target, while the touchdown rate of -276 feet per minute was considered fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 22.9 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance of 739 nautical miles was covered in 2 hours and 7 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 4,410 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 21 at EHEH Eindhoven Airport, with a final approach initiated from the north east, heading 215.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,307 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 63 feet above ground level, exceeding the target by a considerable margin. However, the threshold speed of 145 knots was significantly above the target, indicating a potential for a long rollout.
The aircraft touched down 549 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, slightly above the target. The touchdown rate of -276 feet per minute was fair, but not exceptional. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind of 9 knots at 60°, contributed to a tailwind component of 8 knots, which may have influenced the aircraft's performance.
The total landing distance of 2,334 meters was 93% of the runway length, indicating a relatively long rollout. Runway rollout alignment was not ideal, with the aircraft deviating from the centerline by 22.9 meters. Overall, the landing performance scored 70.2%, reflecting a mix of satisfactory and less-than-ideal aspects of the landing.
