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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,329 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 347 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 200.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was within the acceptable range at 132 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -95 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 37°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from 270°. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The total landing distance of 1,033 meters was 44% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout distance.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing. Overall, the Airbus A320's landing on runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport was a success, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of challenging weather conditions.
