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 16 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Be established on the glideslope by the gate, and take the power back earlier on final so the height and the speed come back together. Do not push down for the height: that only adds speed.
What happened: The approach was off the glideslope at the gate, and the aircraft then crossed the threshold at 100 ft agl, 50 ft agl above the 50 ft agl target, and at 147 kt, 14 kt over the 133 kt threshold speed. High and fast together is energy the runway has to absorb, and this touchdown came 527 m beyond the aim point.
Watch for: Glideslope indication at the gate, then airspeed: 133 kt on short final
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,903 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and glideslope 6.3° against the runway's 3°.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,810 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,810 m of the 3,641 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 984 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A321neo taxied from the parking area to runway 31L at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport in 6 minutes, covering 2 nm on the ground.
During the departure roll on runway 31L, the aircraft accelerated to a rotation speed of 160 kt and lifted off after a take-off distance of 1,345 m, which represented 44 % of the runway length; local weather was 18 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 320°, a 1 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile west of LHBP, with the airplane climbing from 1,387 ft asl to 35,019 ft asl, an altitude gain of 33,631 ft achieved in 13 minutes while covering 83 nm.
The first en-route cruise began 2 miles south-east of Kiskunmajsa and lasted 58 minutes, during which the flight covered 426 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 8 miles east of Havsa, with the aircraft descending from 35,089 ft asl to 2,761 ft asl, a loss of 32,328 ft completed in 25 minutes over a distance of 167 nm.
A brief second cruise segment was initiated 9 miles north-east of LTFJ Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nm before the final approach began.
On final approach to runway 24L at LTFJ, the aircraft descended from 2,188 ft agl to 205 ft agl in 73 seconds and was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 24L, which is 3,641 m long, the threshold height at 100 ft agl was noted as excessively over target and the threshold speed was well above target at 147 kt; touchdown occurred 566 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 131 kt, a descent rate of minus 176 fpm, and perfect alignment, while local weather was 28 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 230°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind; total landing distance was 1,726 m, representing 47 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was described as very good, and the aircraft decelerated to a stop after the landing roll.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 10 minutes, traveling another 2 nm on the ground.
In total, the flight covered 691 nm, required 113 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 4,271 kg of fuel.
