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 8.6 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 56 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 56 ft, 11 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,094 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 253 m touchdown sits inside 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 12 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 26R at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada. The takeoff distance was 1,448 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 148 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Las Vegas, it encountered local weather conditions of 14°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 169 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead the airport and took the aircraft from 3,182 feet above sea level to 32,578 feet, an increase of 29,396 feet in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 84 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 11 miles north of the Danby Airstrip in California and lasted for 5 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 40 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 14 miles east of the Twentynine Palms Airport in California and took the aircraft from 32,321 feet to 1,977 feet, a decrease of 30,344 feet in 20 minutes and covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at KSAN San Diego International Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 287.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,933 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 123 knots and a touchdown rate of -326 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 250 meters, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at San Diego were 11°C, and the runway length was 2,094 meters. The total landing distance was 995 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 256 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 51 minutes. The aircraft used 1,656 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at San Diego International Airport (KSAN) on runway 27, achieving a high score of 96.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 287.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,933 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 speed was within the acceptable range, at 127 knots, and the touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 250 meters. The touchdown speed of 123 knots was within the desired parameters, and the touchdown rate of -326 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the landing process.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 11°C. The total landing distance of 995 meters was within the acceptable range, accounting for 48% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases. However, the slight misalignment of the touchdown position and rollout alignment may require some attention to ensure that the aircraft is properly aligned with the runway centerline.
