Flight Score
Retract gear by 400 feet
Next time
Raise the gear promptly once a positive rate is confirmed, before reaching the gate altitude.
What happened: Gear retraction was late relative to the target height for this stage of the climb.
Watch for: Landing gear position against the retraction height gate.
Arrival
Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to keep the deviation within 16 m.
What happened: During rollout the aircraft drifted off the runway centreline, reaching a maximum deviation of 16 m.
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

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 1,672 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,672 m of the 3,193 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 394 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 24 at EDLW Dortmund Airport, a movement that lasted 7 minutes and covered 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 157 kt and became airborne after traveling 1,275 m, which represented 75 % of the runway length; local weather at the time was 20 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 267°, including a 4 kt crosswind and an 8 kt headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile west of Holzwickede (Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany), with the airplane ascending from 1,554 ft asl to 22,009 ft asl, an increase of 20,455 ft achieved in 9 minutes while covering 50 nm.
Level cruise began 1 mile south-west of Horstmar (Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) and persisted for 9 minutes, during which the flight covered 60 nm.
Descent was initiated 2 miles north-west of Oosterwolde (Provincie Gelderland, The Netherlands), with the aircraft descending from 21,788 ft asl to 1,291 ft asl, a loss of 20,498 ft over 14 minutes and a distance of 73 nm.
The final approach to runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was flown from the south-west, on a heading of 58.0° at 4 nm and 1,284 ft agl.
A go-around was executed on runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol when the aircraft reached 792 ft agl, prompting a climb back to a safe altitude before re-establishing a subsequent approach.
Landing on runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol occurred on a runway 3,193 m long; the threshold speed was slightly above target at 138 kt, touchdown distance measured 394 m, touchdown speed was 134 kt, and the touchdown rate was firm at minus 317 fpm, with runway touchdown alignment described as very good. Local weather reported a temperature of 20 °C, wind 14 kt from 310°, a 14 kt crosswind and a 4 kt tailwind. Total landing distance was 1,582 m, representing 50 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was offset by 16.2 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 265 nm, took 59, and consumed 2,536 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 executed the final approach to runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol from the south-west, tracking a heading of 58.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,284 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 138 kt. The flare was performed with the aircraft configured for landing and the parameters remained within the expected envelope.
Touchdown occurred 394 m down the runway, with a touchdown speed of 134 kt that was a little fast and a firm touchdown rate of minus 317 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance was 1,582 m, representing 50 % of the 3,193 m runway, and the rollout alignment was misaligned by 16.2 m from the centreline.
With a final score of 92.7 % the landing was solid; refining rollout alignment to reduce the 16.2 m offset and moderating the touchdown speed slightly will tighten performance margins and further improve consistency.
