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 6.6 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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 204 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 204 fpm next time
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: wings 11° of bank, against a 10° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,272 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 284 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing São Tomé International Airport, the Boeing 737-600 began its journey with a taxiing period of three minutes, covering a distance of one nautical mile to reach the runway. The aircraft then took off from runway 29, utilizing 826 meters, or 38% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 138 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of one knot from a direction of 160 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a distance of 275 nautical miles, increasing its altitude from 996 feet above sea level to 40,683 feet in 37 minutes. The enroute level cruise phase commenced 17 miles northwest of Mitzic Airport, lasting 141 minutes and covering a distance of 1,060 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, reducing its altitude from 40,648 feet to 6,240 feet in 22 minutes, while covering a distance of 151 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 28 at Kigali International Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 280.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,358 feet above ground level.
The Boeing 737-600 landed on runway 28, utilizing 863 meters, or 26% of the runway, and achieving a touchdown speed of 123 knots. Although the touchdown speed was slightly above the target, the touchdown rate of -198 feet per minute was within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating 3.2 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than one nautical mile in one minute. The total flight distance of 1,493 nautical miles was completed in 206 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 8,313 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600 touched down on runway 28 at HRYR Kigali International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing for a stable approach. The aircraft's speed at threshold was slightly above the target, reaching 129 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 287 meters, and the touchdown speed of 123 knots was a little fast, but not excessively so. The touchdown rate of -198 feet per minute was good, indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.2 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. However, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a light wind of 2 knots from 180 degrees, were generally favorable for the landing. The crosswind component was minimal, and the headwind was negligible.
The aircraft's rollout was well-aligned with the runway centreline, demonstrating good control and stability during the post-landing phase. The total landing distance of 863 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was considered to be of high quality, with a score of 98.8% reflecting the crew's skill and attention to detail.
