Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 10,246 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 10,246 ft of the 11,977 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,492 ft touchdown sits inside 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A319, then departed from runway 29 at the Grand Junction Regional Airport (KGJT) in Colorado, United States. The takeoff distance was 5,881 feet, which accounted for 56% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 62°F and a wind speed of 0 knots at 144°. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of the airport and ascending from 5,815 feet above sea level to 29,390 feet above sea level, an increase of 23,575 feet in 12 minutes and covering a distance of 62 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 12 miles west of Crested Butte, Colorado, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 10 miles southeast of Aspen, Colorado, and descending from 29,439 feet above sea level to 6,736 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,703 feet in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 97 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07 at the Denver International Airport (KDEN) was made from the west, heading 91.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,368 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 07, which had a length of 11,977 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,476 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 131 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -133 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 21 feet from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 125°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 9,979 feet, which accounted for 83% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 195 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 46 minutes. The aircraft used 4,058 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at KDEN Denver International Airport, achieving a score of 94.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 91.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,368 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 07, which has a length of 11,977 feet.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 1,476 feet, but the touchdown speed of 131 knots was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -133 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 21 feet, which may require some adjustments during the landing roll. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 125°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots.
The total landing distance of 9,979 feet was 83% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling characteristics.
