Improve the takeoff
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,617 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 184 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A320, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at BIRK Reykjavik Airport. This process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 13, with a takeoff distance of 761 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 146 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 8°C temperature and a wind speed of 21 knots at 85 degrees. The crosswind was 11 knots, while the headwind was 18 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Kopavogur, Iceland, where the aircraft ascended from 1,045 feet above sea level to 36,387 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,342 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 123 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 40 miles south of BIVI Vík Airport Vík, Iceland, and lasted for 79 minutes, covering a distance of 579 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent overhead Castlerock, Northern Ireland, where it descended from 36,875 feet above sea level to 7,780 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,096 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 15 miles east of Loughshinny, Ireland, and lasted for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 15 miles east of Dalkey, Ireland, where it descended from 7,474 feet above sea level to 2,907 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,567 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 4 miles east of Howth, Ireland, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent 1 mile northeast of Howth, Ireland, where it descended from 2,466 feet above sea level to 1,392 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,075 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 28L at EIDW Dublin Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 276.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,173 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 28L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 184 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 122 knots, which was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was good at -188 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 7°C temperature and a wind speed of 19 knots at 260 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 19 knots. The total landing distance was 772 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 4 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 850 nautical miles, taking 142 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,328 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 28L at Dublin Airport (EIDW) with a score of 99.8%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 276.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,173 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.
The temperature at the time of landing was 7°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots blowing from 260°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 19 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The aircraft's speed and altitude were well within the acceptable limits, with a threshold speed of 127 knots and a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly higher than desired at 122 knots, but the touchdown distance of 184 meters was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -188 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision.
The total landing distance of 772 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 executed a well-planned and controlled approach, taking into account the aircraft's performance and the runway's characteristics. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and judgment in managing the aircraft's speed, altitude, and alignment during the approach and touchdown phases. The 99.8% score reflects the high level of proficiency and safety demonstrated by the pilot during this landing.
