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 5.9 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 13 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,938 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 367 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 07 at LFPO Paris-Orly Airport, covering 1 nm in 8 minutes.
During the departure roll on runway 07, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,635 m, representing 49 % of the runway, and lifted off at 156 kt. Local weather at the time was 16 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 29°, a crosswind component of 5 kt and a headwind component of 5 kt.
The initial en-route climb began overhead Villeneuve-le-Roi, climbing from 1,310 ft asl to 35,317 ft asl, an increase of 34,007 ft achieved in 17 minutes while covering 116 nm.
Level cruise commenced 1 mile north-west of Froncles and continued for 20 minutes, during which 179 nm were flown.
A second climb segment started 1 mile south-east of Muhlehorn, raising the aircraft from 35,575 ft asl to 37,220 ft asl, an increase of 1,645 ft in 2 minutes and covering 14 nm.
Subsequent level cruise began 1 mile south-west of Mastrils, lasting 14 minutes and spanning 121 nm.
Descent operations were initiated overhead Maser, descending from 37,377 ft asl to 1,500 ft asl, a loss of 35,877 ft in 22 minutes while traversing 130 nm.
The final approach to runway 09 at LDPL Pula Airport was conducted from the west, on a heading of 88.0°, at 4 nm and 1,269 ft agl.
Landing on runway 09, which is 2,938 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 137 kt. Touchdown was recorded at 370 m down the runway with a speed of 132 kt and a vertical rate of minus 226 fpm; runway-touchdown alignment was very good. Local conditions were 27 °C, wind 15 kt from 59°, crosswind 7 kt and headwind 13 kt. The total landing distance measured 1,006 m, representing 34 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was noted to be slightly off centreline by 13.1 m.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 568 nm, lasted 84 minutes, and consumed 3,367 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 conducted a stabilised approach to runway 09 at LDPL Pula Airport, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits as assessed at the 1 000 ft gate. Descent was from 1 301 ft agl to -22 ft agl in 109 seconds and the aircraft met the stabilisation-gate criteria.
At threshold the aircraft’s speed was slightly below target at 119 kt and the threshold height was good, indicating an appropriate flare transition.
Touchdown occurred 292 m down the runway at a speed of 116 kt, with a vertical rate of -194 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment.
Rollout covered a total landing distance of 974 m, representing 33 % of the 2 938 m runway, and runway-rollout alignment was perfect.
Maintain the target threshold speed by fine-tuning the final-approach speed setting to avoid the slight under-speed observed, which will further optimise the touchdown point and overall landing performance.
