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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,075 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 292 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 28, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,260 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°, with no crosswind and a headwind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed out of Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 33,954 feet above sea level after an increase of 32,929 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 42 nautical miles. The climb took place over the city of Genova in Liguria, Italy. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, lasting 56 minutes and covering 374 nautical miles, starting 1 mile west of Lequio Tanaro in Piemonte, Italy.
The enroute descent began overhead Herve in Wallonia, Belgium, with the aircraft descending from 34,010 feet to 10,008 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,002 feet in 11 minutes, covering 22 nautical miles. The descent was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles, starting 1 mile south-west of Langerwehe in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile south-east of Bocholtz in Provincie Limburg, The Netherlands, and descending from 9,524 feet to 2,009 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,514 feet in 9 minutes, covering 36 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, lasting 7 minutes and covering 19 nautical miles, starting overhead Geetbets in Flanders, Belgium. The final approach to runway 25R at Brussels Airport took place from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 246.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,247 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25R was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 128 knots and a touchdown distance of 290 meters, which was 32% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was hard at -475 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at Brussels Airport were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, a wind speed of 1 knot at 270°, with no crosswind and a headwind of 1 knot. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.1 meters from the centreline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took approximately 5 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 509 nautical miles, taking 115 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,550 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 25R at EBBR Brussels Airport, achieving a high score of 92.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 246.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,247 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 threshold speed was recorded at 134 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 290 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was also within the acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill and control.
However, the touchdown rate of -475 feet per minute (fpm) was considered hard, which may indicate that the pilot could have applied a smoother touchdown. Nevertheless, this did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a testament to the pilot's precision and control.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind component was minimal, which made the landing even more challenging and impressive.
The total landing distance of 996 meters was 32% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot had excellent control over the aircraft during the landing phase and was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and safely.
Although the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.1 meters from the centerline, this was not a significant issue and did not impact the overall performance of the landing. Overall, the Airbus A320's landing on runway 25R at EBBR Brussels Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the landing phase.
