See Departure Roll
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 1,576 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,576 m of the 3,669 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 481 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 A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Great Falls International Airport (KGTF). This process took approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 21, with the aircraft taking off after covering 54% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,712 meters, and the liftoff speed was 147 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of KGTF, it encountered local weather conditions of 20°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 209 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile southwest of the airport and continued to an altitude of 37,865 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,140 feet from the initial altitude of 4,725 feet. This climb phase took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 107 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 12 miles north of Ryegate Airport (8U0) in Montana. This phase lasted for 47 minutes and covered a distance of 348 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 9 miles south of A Bar A Ranch Airstrip (WY11) in Wyoming. The descent phase took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 106 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 38,199 feet to 6,684 feet above sea level.
The final approach to runway 17R at Denver International Airport (KDEN) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 179.0 degrees at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,293 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,669 meters, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 131 knots.
The touchdown point was 62 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 122 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -262 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at KDEN were 28°C temperature and a wind speed of 13 knots at 190 degrees, with a crosswind component of 2 knots and a headwind component of 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,491 meters, which was 41% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 569 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 94 minutes. The aircraft used 3,690 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at KDEN Denver International Airport on runway 17R, achieving a score of 98.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 179.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,293 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good precision, considering the aircraft's position and altitude.
Upon landing, the threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 131 knots. This minor deviation from the target speed did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown point was located 62 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 122 knots was slightly faster than the desired speed, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down with a bit more force than intended. However, the touchdown rate of -262 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was relatively smooth.
The runway touchdown alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 190°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's stable approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 1,491 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Airbus A319's landing at KDEN Denver International Airport was a successful operation, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 98.5%. The minor deviations from the target speed and touchdown point were not significant enough to impact the overall performance of the landing.
