Flight Score
Monitor your speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 1,767 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,767 m of the 3,986 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 602 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A321ceo taxied from the parking area to runway 22 at LDZD Zadar Airport, a movement that lasted 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 22, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,222 m, representing 61 % of the runway, and lifted off at 158 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 26 °C, wind 6 kt from 210°, with a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 6 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced 2 miles east of Bibinje, Croatia, with the airplane climbing from 1,287 ft asl to 35,799 ft asl, an increase of 34,512 ft achieved in 18 minutes while covering 122 nm.
The first cruise segment began 1 mile south of Planina, Slovenia, and was maintained for 30 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 218 nm at level flight.
Descent started 1 mile south-west of Essing, Germany, descending from 36,015 ft asl to 10,149 ft asl, a loss of 25,866 ft in 15 minutes and covering 102 nm.
A brief cruise followed overhead Rothenfels, Germany, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 9 nm.
A second descent began 1 mile south-west of Neuhutten, Germany, with the aircraft descending from 10,015 ft asl to 1,506 ft asl, a decrease of 8,509 ft in 9 minutes and covering 31 nm.
On final approach to runway 25L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport, the aircraft descended from 1,203 ft agl to 26 ft agl in 98 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 25L, which is 3,986 m long, occurred with a threshold speed slightly above target at 150 kt. Touchdown was recorded 191 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 138 kt, with a touchdown rate described as fair at minus 208 fpm and runway-touchdown alignment judged very good. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 23 °C, wind 6 kt from 182°, with a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,690 m, representing 42 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was noted as very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 489 nm, required 84 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 3,602 kg of fuel.
The approach to runway 25L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The aircraft descended from 1,203 ft agl to 26 ft agl in 98 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates.
At the threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold height, while the threshold speed was slightly above target at 150 kt. The flare proceeded from the established height into the touchdown phase.
Touchdown occurred 191 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 138 kt, noted as a little fast, and a fair vertical rate of minus 208 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and the total landing distance was 1,690 m, representing 42 % of the 3,986 m runway.
Runway rollout alignment remained very good throughout the deceleration phase.
Given the minor excess in threshold and touchdown speeds and the touchdown point beyond the zone, the crew should target the published threshold speed and adjust the flare to achieve a touchdown within the designated zone while maintaining the current excellent alignment.
