Improve the rollout
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,129 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,129 ft of the 10,479 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,770 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A319 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at GCLP Gran Canaria Airport, a process that took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 03R, with a takeoff distance of 3,837 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 74°F and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 349°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of GCLP Gran Canaria Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,010 feet above sea level to 10,277 feet above sea level in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 12 miles east of GCLP Gran Canaria Airport and lasted for 16 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 43 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 14 miles west of Mogan, Canary Islands, and descended from 10,287 feet to 8,140 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 22 miles west of Mogan and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent 19 miles southeast of El Medano, Canary Islands, and descended from 6,231 feet to 1,494 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at GCTS Tenerife Sur Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 249.0° at an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 10,479 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 128 knots.
The touchdown point was 389 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 117 knots and a firm touchdown rate of -317 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 21 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 72°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 230°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 4,848 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 40 feet from the centreline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 98 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 51 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,387 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at GCTS Tenerife Sur Airport, achieving a score of 93.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 249.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 25, which has a length of 10,479 feet.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 128 knots. The touchdown point was 389 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 117 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -317 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 72°F and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions likely contributed to a smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 4,848 feet was 46% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 40 feet from the centerline, suggesting a minor deviation from the intended path. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, despite some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
