Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7.9 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,299 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 560 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at EVRA Riga International Airport, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 18, with a takeoff distance of 1,426 meters, which is 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and winds of 13 knots at 150 degrees. The crosswind was 8 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots. After departing from Riga, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of the airport and climbing from 1,063 feet above sea level to 31,174 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,112 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 77 nautical miles.
The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 3 miles south of EVAI Aizpute Airport and lasted 29 minutes, covering a distance of 219 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 27 miles southeast of Nogersund, Sweden, and descending from 30,693 feet above sea level to 2,875 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,818 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 81 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, this time starting overhead Barsebaeckshamn, Sweden, and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 3 miles southwest of Barsebaeckshamn and descended from 2,492 feet above sea level to 1,331 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,160 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport was made from the northeast, heading 223.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,305 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 132 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 111 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -202 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 10°C temperature and winds of 21 knots at 220 degrees. The crosswind was 0 knots, and the headwind was 21 knots. The total landing distance was 962 meters, which is 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 392 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 80 minutes. The aircraft used 2,730 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A32NX successfully landed at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, aligning itself with the heading of 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,305 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach was a testament to the pilot's skill and attention to detail.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 22L, which has a length of 3,299 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 132 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's speed during the final stages of the approach.
The touchdown point was 132 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation from the ideal landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 111 knots was good, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively during the landing. The touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the pilot could have done a better job of controlling the aircraft's descent rate.
Despite the minor deviations in the touchdown point and touchdown rate, the overall performance of the aircraft during the landing was impressive. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained the aircraft's alignment with the runway during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10°C and a headwind of 21 knots, also presented a challenge for the pilot, but they were able to navigate the aircraft safely to the ground.
The total landing distance of 962 meters was 29% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively during the landing, and that the aircraft's brakes were functioning properly. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase of the landing.
Overall, the Airbus A32NX's landing at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency in their flight operations. The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, and the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft safely to the ground in challenging weather conditions was a testament to their expertise.
