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 50 ft 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 82 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 82 ft, 37 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,197 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,197 ft of the 8,984 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,847 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 25 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A320, then departed from runway 28R at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport. The takeoff distance was 3,344 feet, which accounted for 26% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 38°F and winds of 3 knots at 164°. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport, where the aircraft ascended from 1,716 feet above sea level to 35,532 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,815 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 5 miles southwest of KHOF Hoopeston Airport in Illinois, lasting 43 minutes and covering 231 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 36,004 feet above sea level to 16,150 feet above sea level, a decrease of 19,854 feet in 25 minutes, covering 126 nautical miles. This descent took place overhead TN51 Aydelotte STOLport in Springfield, Tennessee.
The enroute level cruise resumed 5 miles southwest of Trenton in Georgia, lasting only 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 15,685 feet above sea level to 4,994 feet above sea level, a decrease of 10,692 feet in 14 minutes, covering 45 nautical miles. This descent started 1 mile north of 3GE4 Fox Mountain Airport in Rising Fawn, Alabama.
The enroute level cruise continued 2 miles west of Euharlee in Georgia, lasting 16 minutes and covering 33 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 4,678 feet above sea level to 2,973 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,705 feet in 3 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. This descent took place overhead 25GA Miller Farm Airport in Douglasville, Georgia.
The enroute level cruise resumed 2 miles northwest of Union City in Georgia, lasting 29 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its final descent from 2,973 feet above sea level to 2,343 feet above sea level, a decrease of 630 feet in 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles. This descent also started 2 miles northwest of Union City in Georgia.
The final approach to runway 09R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 90.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,308 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 09R, which had a length of 8,984 feet. The threshold height at 60 feet above ground level was above the target, while the threshold speed was well above the target at 158 knots.
The touchdown point was 450 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 154 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -98 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 51°F and winds of 1 knot at 87°, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 4,900 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 77
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 09R, achieving a high score of 96.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 154 knots, which was within the target range.
The touchdown point was located 450 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. However, the touchdown speed and rate were both excellent, with a rate of -98 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the aircraft was well-controlled during the landing, and the pilot was able to maintain a stable descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 51°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 87°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft's performance was not significantly affected by the wind conditions, and the landing was executed smoothly.
The total landing distance was 4,900 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to decelerate quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop safely.
Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft's performance was excellent. The high score of 96.6% reflects the pilot's skill and expertise in executing a safe and efficient landing.
