Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,689 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,689 m of the 3,094 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 539 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 flight began with a rapid taxi from the parking area to the runway at LFRS Nantes Atlantique Airport, covering less than 1 nm in just 5 minutes. The aircraft took off from runway 21 with a takeoff distance of 1,426 m, using 53 % of the runway, and reached a liftoff speed of 151 kn. The local weather at departure showed a temperature of 7 °C with a 6 kn wind at 199 °, resulting in a slight crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 6 kn.
The enroute climb commenced 1 mile west of Pont-Saint-Martin in France, climbing from 1,105 ft asl to 32,726 ft asl over 19 minutes, covering 112 nm. Following this, the aircraft reached a level cruise 74 miles southwest of Saint-Clement-des-Baleines, lasting 18 minutes and covering 141 nm.
Another climb was initiated 5 miles south of Arredondo in Spain, ascending from 32,844 ft asl to 34,285 ft asl over 2 minutes, covering 17 nm. The subsequent level cruise phase started 9 miles west of Medina de Pomar, lasting 91 minutes and covering 641 nm.
The descent phase began 20 miles southwest of Settat in Morocco, descending from 35,295 ft asl to 11,478 ft asl over 9 minutes, covering 59 nm. The aircraft then entered another level cruise segment starting 22 miles northwest of GMMX Menara Airport in Marrakech, lasting 32 minutes and covering 3 nm.
A second descent was initiated 22 miles northwest of GMMX Menara Airport, descending from 10,980 ft asl to 3,189 ft asl over 8 minutes, covering 17 nm. The landing took place on runway 10 at GMMX Menara Airport, with a threshold height of 12 ft agl and a touchdown speed of 127 kn. The aircraft touched down 194 m from the threshold, with a Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) reading of -157 ft/m.
The total landing distance was 1,264 m, representing 41 % of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in under 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance of the Airbus A320 was 998 nm, lasting 200 minutes and consuming 6,851 kg of fuel.
Congratulations on achieving an impressive aircraft landing score of 99.5%! This remarkable performance is a testament to your exceptional skills and precision as a pilot.
Let's break down the different phases of the landing process to understand what contributed to your outstanding score.
During the Approach Phase, your glideslope alignment was excellent, indicating that you maintained a steady and controlled descent towards the runway. This is crucial for a smooth and safe landing, as it allows for a precise touchdown point.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, your threshold height was good, ensuring that you approached the runway at the correct altitude. Additionally, your landing flare was perfect, indicating that you smoothly transitioned from descent to a level touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate was good, showing that you made a gentle and controlled landing. Your speed was on target, further enhancing the accuracy of the touchdown. Moreover, landing inside the touchdown zone and achieving a very good runway touchdown position demonstrates your ability to consistently land within the designated area.
Finally, during the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was very good, indicating that you maintained a straight path down the runway after touchdown. This is important for safely exiting the runway and taxiing to the designated parking area.
Overall, your exceptional performance in each phase of the landing process contributed to your high score. Keep up the great work and continue honing your skills to maintain this level of excellence in all your future landings. Well done!
