Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,914 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 466 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A319 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LOWS Salzburg Airport, a process that took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 33, with a takeoff distance of 1,393 meters, which was 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots at a direction of 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of Freilassing in Bavaria, Germany. The climb took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 101 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 2,417 feet above sea level to 37,463 feet.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles south of Nabburg in Bavaria, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 5 minutes and covered a distance of 37 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its first descent, starting 1 mile west of Obertrubach in Bavaria, Germany. The descent took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 71 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 37,458 feet to 24,402 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Klettbach in Thuringia, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 20 minutes and covered a distance of 128 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its second descent, starting 1 mile south east of Gorleben in Lower Saxony, Germany. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 54 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 23,962 feet to 3,405 feet.
The aircraft then entered a final level cruise, starting 1 mile south east of Dassow in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 25 at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport, approaching from the east at a heading of 252.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 25 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 114 knots and a distance of 464 meters. The touchdown rate was firm at -319 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 14 knots at a direction of 240 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 956 meters, which was 50% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 405 nautical miles, and the flight took 80 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of 3,024 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport, achieving a high score of 96.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 252.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 25, which has a length of 1,914 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 114 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 464 meters was also considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -319 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a slight deceleration upon touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from 240°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 13 knots, which the pilots effectively managed during the landing. The runway threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the target at 132 knots.
The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, with perfect runway touchdown alignment and rollout alignment. The total landing distance of 956 meters was 50% of the runway length, indicating a controlled and efficient landing. Overall, the Airbus A319's landing at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport was a success, with the pilots demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
