Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 6.4 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,609 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 393 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A319 taxied from the parking area to runway 25 at London Luton Airport in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 25, the aircraft accelerated to a take-off distance of 1,313 m, representing 63 % of the runway, and rotated at 130 kt; ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 24 kt from 270°, a 7 kt cross-wind component and a 23 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced overhead the airport, gaining altitude from 1,375 ft asl to 26,009 ft asl - an increase of 24,634 ft - in 11 minutes while covering 59 nm.
The first level cruise began 1 mile south-west of Micheldever, lasting 7 minutes and traversing 44 nm.
Descent started 13 miles south-east of Swanage, dropping from 25,755 ft asl to 11,563 ft asl - a loss of 14,192 ft - in 8 minutes and covering 51 nm.
A second cruise segment originated 5 miles south-west of Jobourg, persisting for 33 minutes and extending 134 nm.
The next descent began 1 mile north-east of Saint Helier, descending from 11,007 ft asl to 2,025 ft asl - a decrease of 8,982 ft - in 8 minutes over 29 nm.
A brief cruise followed 8 miles east of Saint Helier, lasting 3 minutes and covering 8 nm.
Final approach to runway 26 at Jersey Airport involved a descent from 1,324 ft agl to 56 ft agl in 124 seconds, with the aircraft meeting the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 26 was executed with a threshold speed of 131 kt; touchdown occurred 393 m down the runway at 120 kt and a touchdown rate of minus 196 fpm, with perfect alignment. The runway length is 1,609 m, and the total landing distance recorded was 1,085 m, equivalent to 67 % of the runway. Local weather at the time was 14 °C with a wind of 15 kt from 288°, a 7 kt cross-wind component and a 14 kt head-wind.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 332 nm, required 81 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 2,752 kg of fuel.
