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.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,552 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,552 m of the 2,494 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 534 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 01L at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a takeoff distance of 1,262 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 171 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -4°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 9°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Gardermoen and ascending from 1,715 feet above sea level to 25,821 feet above sea level, an increase of 24,106 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 12 miles north of Dalen and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its first descent, starting 5 miles east of Hovden and descending from 25,755 feet above sea level to 9,305 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,450 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 59 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles east of Oltedal and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its second descent, starting 4 miles north of Vikesa and descending from 9,303 feet above sea level to 1,313 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,990 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 36 at ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola, was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 359.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,285 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 36, which had a length of 2,494 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 116 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 130 knots. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -146 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 1°C.
The total landing distance was 1,469 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 201 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 48 minutes. The aircraft used 2,145 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola, with a high score of 98.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 359.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 36, which has a length of 2,494 meters. The threshold speed was satisfactory at 136 knots, indicating that the pilot had achieved a suitable speed for landing. However, the touchdown point was 116 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was a bit faster than ideal, but the touchdown rate of -146 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 1°C. The total landing distance of 1,469 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and adherence to standard procedures. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and point. Nevertheless, the high score of 98.9% reflects the pilot's competence and skill in executing a safe and efficient landing.
