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 6.5 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 21 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 9.5 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
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.
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: centreline 1.0° 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 3,424 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 409 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 08R at KMIA Miami International Airport, covering 3 nm in 12 minutes.
The departure roll on runway 08R employed a takeoff distance of 1,873 m, 58 % of the runway, and rotation was achieved at 152 kt. Ambient conditions were temperature 31 °C, wind 7 kt from 150°, with a 6 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile south-west of Brownsville, Florida, with the aircraft ascending from 976 ft asl to 37,010 ft asl, a gain of 36,034 ft over 22 minutes while covering 147 nm.
Level cruise was established 19 miles north-west of MYAW Walkers Cay Airport, Bahamas, and persisted for 92 minutes, during which 734 nm were flown.
Descent began 2 miles west of Sea Isle City, New Jersey, with a descent from 37,031 ft asl to 1,330 ft asl, a loss of 35,702 ft in 20 minutes and a distance of 108 nm.
Final approach to runway 31L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport started from 1,359 ft agl and descended to 37 ft agl in 125 seconds; the approach was recorded as scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing occurred on runway 31L, whose length is 3,424 m, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 134 kt. Touchdown was 139 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 125 kt, reported as good, and a vertical rate of minus 163 fpm, also reported as good. The touchdown point was laterally offset by 13.7 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was temperature 19 °C, wind 7 kt from 50°, with a 7 kt crosswind and a 2 kt tailwind.
Total landing distance measured 1,401 m, 41 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.5 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nm in 5 minutes.
Overall, the flight covered a distance of 999 nm, required 150 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 5,470 kg of fuel.
