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 5.1 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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: speed above the reference speed.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,580 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 170 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 13R at OMAA Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The takeoff distance was 1,126 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 140 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead OMAA Zayed International Airport. The climb took 35 minutes to reach a maximum altitude of 37,403 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,259 feet from the initial altitude of 1,144 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 230 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 392 minutes and covered a distance of 2,627 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 16 miles east of Al Hadd in Bahrain.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 33 miles northwest of Ter Heijde in the Netherlands. The descent took 13 minutes to reach a maximum altitude of 1,584 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,697 feet from the initial altitude of 38,281 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 179 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 09 at EGNX East Midlands Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 88.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 09, which had a length of 2,580 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 160 degrees.
The touchdown distance was 165 meters, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The touchdown speed was 121 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 124 knots. The touchdown rate was -224 feet per minute, which was considered fair. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking less than 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,043 nautical miles, and the total flight time was 444 minutes. The aircraft used 18,336 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at East Midlands Airport (EGNX) on runway 09, achieving a score of 99.5%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 88.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a suitable altitude prior to touchdown.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 124 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly faster than desired, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to maintain a more controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -224 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating that the aircraft's rate of descent was not excessively steep.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating that the pilots maintained a precise alignment with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from 160°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots, resulting in a net headwind effect.
The total landing distance of 617 meters was 24% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft touched down and came to a stop within a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and aligned it with the runway centerline.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases.
