Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 6.9° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 1.6° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,693 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 376 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Innsbruck Airport, taking 6 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 08, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 145 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 100 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from Innsbruck, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 24,410 feet above sea level in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 39 nautical miles. The climb started overhead Innsbruck and took the aircraft over various locations in Austria and Germany, including Holzkirchen and Schweitenkirchen. The aircraft then leveled off at an altitude of 24,586 feet, cruising for 5 minutes and covering 36 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started over Schweitenkirchen, with the aircraft descending from 24,586 feet to 16,355 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 35 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 16,185 feet to 16,930 feet in 2 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles. The climb started 1 mile south east of Berching.
The aircraft then began another descent, this time from 17,258 feet to 5,025 feet in 8 minutes, covering 37 nautical miles. The descent started 1 mile south west of Freystadt. The aircraft then leveled off at an altitude of 5,041 feet, cruising for 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles.
The final descent started 1 mile south west of Emskirchen, with the aircraft descending from 5,041 feet to 2,307 feet in 4 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 10 at Nuremberg Airport, heading 99.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 10, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 127 knots. The touchdown distance was 378 meters, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 100 degrees.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 180 nautical miles, taking 47 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,991 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at EDDN Nuremberg Airport, achieving a high score of 97.8%. The final approach to runway 10 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 99.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 130 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 378 meters, which is within the expected range. However, the touchdown speed of 127 knots was slightly higher than the ideal speed, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down with a bit more force than necessary. The touchdown rate of -423 feet per minute (fpm) was also considered hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a more abrupt touchdown than desired.
Despite these minor issues, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and a gentle headwind of 5 knots from a direction of 100°. The crosswind component was negligible, with a speed of 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,405 meters was 52% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good performance in terms of approach, touchdown, and rollout.
