MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.
What happened: The touchdown rate was 296 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.
Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 296 fpm next time
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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 1,457 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,457 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 432 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Munich Airport, the Airbus A319 began its journey on runway 26L, taking off with a distance of 2,241 meters, which covered 56% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots, with a local temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a headwind of 18 knots. As it departed, the aircraft encountered a crosswind of 5 knots, but the headwind component helped to stabilize the takeoff roll.
The enroute climb phase started overhead Hallbergmoos, Bavaria, Germany, where the aircraft began its ascent from 2,479 feet above sea level to 32,987 feet, an increase of 30,508 feet in just 16 minutes. The climb covered a distance of 111 nautical miles, setting the stage for the long-haul journey ahead. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, first at an altitude of 33,015 feet, then at 32,987 feet, before descending to 4,201 feet over Pincara, Veneto, Italy. The descent phase was followed by a brief level cruise phase over Montaione, Toscana, Italy, before the aircraft began its final descent to 1,380 feet over Montelupo Fiorentino, Toscana, Italy.
The Airbus A319 then began its final approach to runway 05 at LIRQ Florence Airport, Peretola, from the southwest, heading 49.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,237 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway with a touchdown distance of 432 meters, slightly above the target threshold speed of 134 knots. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, and the touchdown rate was -211 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 2 minutes. The total flight distance was 340 nautical miles, taking 67 minutes, and the aircraft used -854 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The final approach to runway 05 at LIRQ Florence Airport, Peretola, was conducted from the south west, heading 49.0° at 4 nm and 1,237 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 134 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal approach speed.
The touchdown characteristics were generally good, with a touchdown distance of 432 m and a touchdown speed of 124 kt, both of which were within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -211 fpm was fair, suggesting a slight loss of control during the touchdown phase. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight drift during the approach. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 °C and a wind of 11 kt at 78°, contributed to a crosswind of 5 kt and a headwind of 9 kt.
The total landing distance of 1,092 m was 75% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent alignment with the centreline. Overall, the landing was scored 99.5%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
