Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.
What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.
Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.
Arrival
Apply small rudder corrections at touchdown, aiming at a point at the far end of the runway, to stay on the centreline.
What happened: Touchdown drifted 7 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 7.9 m.
Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.
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: glideslope 4.1° against the runway's 3° and centreline 2.2° off, against a 1° 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 3,003 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 434 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from MMMD Aeropuerto Internacional Manuel Crescencio Rejón, the Airbus A321 began its journey with a taxiing period of 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 18, utilizing 60% of the available length to achieve a takeoff distance of 1,381 meters. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 157 knots, with a local temperature of 32°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots.
Following a smooth takeoff, the aircraft transitioned into an enroute climb, ascending from 1,033 feet above sea level to 33,633 feet in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 165 nautical miles. The climb was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft reaching its cruising altitude in a relatively short period. The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted 54 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 406 nautical miles. The crew then initiated a descent, reducing the aircraft's altitude from 34,017 feet to 17,008 feet in 11 minutes, covering 81 nautical miles. This descent phase was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 2 minutes, before the aircraft began its final descent, touching down on runway 11 at MMMY Monterrey International Airport.
The final approach and landing were executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 132 knots and a touchdown distance of 432 meters. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 1,162 meters, utilizing 39% of the available runway length. Following a taxiing period of 3 minutes, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having completed a total flight distance of 723 nautical miles and consuming 5,738 kilograms of fuel in the process. The flight duration was 115 minutes, with the crew demonstrating a high level of proficiency throughout the journey.
The aircraft touched down on runway 11 at MMMY Monterrey International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, characterized by a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 141 kt. The pilot maintained a steady descent, ultimately achieving a touchdown speed of 132 kt, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 432 m was also satisfactory, indicating a well-executed flare.
However, the touchdown rate of -222 fpm was slightly below the optimal range, resulting in a fair assessment in this category. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 29 °C and a gentle headwind of 2 kt, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by excellent alignment, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the rollout phase. The total landing distance of 1,162 m, which accounted for 39% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was deemed satisfactory, with a score of 97.8%, reflecting a high level of proficiency in the pilot's landing technique.
