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 6.1 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 133 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 139 kt against a target of 133 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 133 kt at the threshold.
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,289 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 618 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 33 at LFSB EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg, covering 2 nm in 5 minutes.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 33, achieving a takeoff distance of 1,086 m (39 % of the runway) and lifting off at 165 kt. Ambient temperature was 29 °C with wind 8 kt from 280°, including a 6 kt crosswind component and a 5 kt headwind.
Climb began 1 mile north-east of Blotzheim, rising from 1,890 ft asl to 37,498 ft asl, an increase of 35,608 ft achieved in 20 minutes while covering 132 nm.
The first level cruise started 1 mile north-east of Massenbachhausen and continued for 41 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 306 nm.
Descent commenced 3 miles north of Boiensdorf, descending from 36,865 ft asl to 2,706 ft asl, a loss of 34,159 ft in 18 minutes over a distance of 115 nm.
A subsequent level cruise was flown overhead Barsebaeck, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
The next descent began 2 miles south-west of Barsebaeckshamn, dropping from 2,494 ft asl to 1,293 ft asl, a decrease of 1,201 ft in 2 minutes across 5 nm.
Final approach to runway 22L at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport involved a descent from 1,315 ft agl to 63 ft agl in 113 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
The aircraft landed on runway 22L, which is 3,289 m long; the threshold speed was slightly above target at 140 kt. Touchdown occurred 201 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 129 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 136 fpm and a lateral deviation of 6.5 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 16 °C and wind 17 kt from 210°, including a 3 kt crosswind and a 17 kt headwind.
Total landing distance measured 1,442 m (44 % of the runway), and the rollout alignment was very good.
After rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering 1 nm in 9 minutes.
Overall, the flight covered 572 nm, lasted 98 minutes, and consumed 3,866 kg of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 08 at EETN Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport with a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach. The threshold speed of 132 kt was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 358 m was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled and stable approach.
However, the touchdown speed of 125 kt was slightly above the recommended threshold, which may have contributed to a slightly higher than ideal touchdown rate of -81 fpm. Despite this, the touchdown rate was still considered excellent, reflecting the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's alignment.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by very good alignment, with the aircraft remaining on course throughout the rollout phase. The total landing distance of 1,255 m, which accounted for 39% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was considered highly satisfactory, with a score of 98.6% reflecting the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a light headwind of 2 kt, also contributed to a smooth and controlled landing.
