Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 146 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 163 kt, 17 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 146 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without 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 5,945 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,945 ft of the 11,485 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,763 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KDEN Denver International Airport. This process took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 34L, and the takeoff distance was 8,608 feet, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 163 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of KDEN, it encountered local weather conditions of 79°F temperature and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 250°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the tailwind component was 2 knots. The enroute climb began 2 miles northwest of the airport and continued for 20 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 6,363 feet above sea level to 37,075 feet, an increase of 30,712 feet. This climb covered a distance of 148 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile southwest of Sharon Springs, Kansas. This phase lasted for 151 minutes and covered a distance of 1,199 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 57 miles north of Rio Lagartos, Mexico. The descent took 26 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 37,146 feet above sea level to 1,223 feet, a decrease of 35,924 feet. This descent covered a distance of 124 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 30L at MMUN Aeropuerto Internacional de Cancún was made from the southeast, heading 304.0° at an altitude of 1,198 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 11,485 feet, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 412 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 130 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -319 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 77°F temperature and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 40°, with a crosswind component of 3 knots and a headwind component of 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 5,694 feet, which accounted for 50% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,480 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 209 minutes. The aircraft used 16,861 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at MMUN Aeropuerto Internacional de Cancún, achieving a score of 97.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 304.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,198 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed on runway 30L, which has a length of 11,485 feet.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 136 knots. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown point was 412 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was a bit faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -319 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was excellent, demonstrating the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 77°F and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 40°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind was negligible at 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 5,694 feet was 50% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, earning the Airbus A319 a score of 97.1%.
