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 13 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 85 ft agl, above the 50 ft agl target. Crossing high like this usually reduces your margin before the touchdown zone ends.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against 50 ft at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 2,865 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 491 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 17R at LTFM İstanbul Airport, a movement that required 14 minutes and covered 9 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 17R, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,901 m, representing 46 % of the runway, and lifted off at 168 kt. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 18 °C, wind 8 kt from 199°, with a 3 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile south-west of LTFM İstanbul Airport (Arnavutköy). The airplane ascended from 1,177 ft asl to 30,321 ft asl, an increase of 29,143 ft achieved in 15 minutes while covering 92 nm.
Level cruise began about 2 miles south of LBPR Primorsko Airfield in Bulgaria and continued for 187 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 1,279 nm.
Descent was initiated roughly 2 miles north-east of Hogsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. The flight descended from 29,966 ft asl to 1,539 ft asl, a loss of 28,427 ft in 33 minutes, covering 153 nm.
The final approach to runway 23R at EGCC Manchester Airport involved a descent from 1,366 ft agl to 104 ft agl in 111 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 23R at EGCC, whose length is 2,865 m, occurred with a threshold height of 85 ft agl that was significantly above target and a threshold speed of 136 kt slightly above target. Touchdown was recorded 77 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 134 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 396 fpm and very good runway alignment. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 15 °C, wind 9 kt from 220°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 9 kt headwind.
The total landing distance measured 1,109 m, equivalent to 39 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 8.4 m.
After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 7 minutes, traversing 1 nm.
In summary, the flight covered a total distance of 1,542 nm, took 255 (units as provided), and consumed 10,032 kg of fuel.
