Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7.1 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 1,550 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 404 m 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 08R at London Gatwick Airport (EGKK). The takeoff distance was 1,049 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 14°C and winds of 13 knots at 49°. The crosswind was 6 knots, while the headwind was 12 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile south of Horley, Surrey, England, and reached an altitude of 23,154 feet above sea level, an increase of 21,937 feet from the initial 1,218 feet. This climb took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 60 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 30 miles northwest of Etretat, Normandie, France, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering 47 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 6 miles east of Reville, Normandie, France, and descended from 22,932 feet to 2,284 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,648 feet in 11 minutes, covering 40 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 7 miles east of Saint Helier, Jersey, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26 at Jersey Airport (EGJJ) was made from the east, heading 263.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,273 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 26 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 406 meters. The touchdown speed was 142 knots, which was slightly faster than expected, and the touchdown rate was firm at -319 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.4 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 16°C and winds of 32 knots at 230°. The crosswind was 17 knots, while the headwind was 27 knots. The total landing distance was 898 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight distance was 162 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 48 minutes. The aircraft used 2,272 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at EGJJ Jersey Airport, achieving a score of 96.7%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 263.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 26, which has a length of 1,550 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 142 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance of 406 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -319 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a relatively steep descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.4 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 16°C, with a wind speed of 32 knots from 230°. This resulted in a crosswind of 17 knots and a headwind of 27 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 898 meters was 58% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the target parameters.
