Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 12°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,872 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,872 m of the 3,082 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 467 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A320, then departed from runway 10 at GMMX Menara Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,896 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 299 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of Marrakesh, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile south of the city. The climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 112 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 2,559 feet above sea level to 33,930 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,372 feet. The enroute level cruise then began 9 miles northeast of GMMN Mohammed V International Airport Casablanca, and it lasted for 136 minutes, covering a distance of 1,083 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started overhead Vaux-sur-Somme in France. The descent took 20 minutes and covered a distance of 100 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 33,341 feet above sea level to 1,508 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,832 feet. The final approach to runway 25L at EBBR Brussels Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 250 degrees at an altitude of 1,355 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 25L was successful, with the touchdown point being 65 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 123 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was firm at -320 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 210 degrees.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,305 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 193 minutes. The aircraft used 7,800 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 25L at EBBR Brussels Airport, achieving a score of 95.5%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 250.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,355 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed on the runway with a threshold speed of 127 knots, which was within the target range.
The touchdown point was located 65 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 123 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -320 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 210°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 1,805 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the aircraft may have drifted slightly off course during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a reasonable distance. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing spot and rollout alignment, the overall performance of the aircraft was impressive, and the score of 95.5% reflects this.
