Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 142 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 158 kt, 16 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 142 kt at liftoff

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 5,400 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,400 ft of the 8,984 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,561 ft 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 Charleston International Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 33, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 158 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 33°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 305°, resulting in a 1-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile west of Hanahan, South Carolina. Over the course of 15 minutes, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,037 feet above sea level to 34,010 feet, an increase of 32,973 feet. This climb phase covered a distance of 80 nautical miles. Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 6 miles northeast of Sardis, Georgia, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering 45 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its enroute descent 7 miles south of Gibson, Georgia, descending from an altitude of 33,670 feet to 8,493 feet, a decrease of 25,177 feet, over a period of 14 minutes and covering 71 nautical miles. A second level cruise phase followed, starting 1 mile east of Jackson, Georgia, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a final descent phase, starting 2 miles north of Jenkinsburg, Georgia, and descending from an altitude of 8,012 feet to 2,272 feet, a decrease of 5,740 feet, over a period of 7 minutes and covering 27 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27L at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 270.0° at an altitude of 1,230 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 8,984 feet, and the threshold height was reported as good. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 169 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 130 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -181 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 310°, resulting in a 3-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind.
The total landing distance was 5,108 feet, which accounted for 57% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as very good. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 238 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 55 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,228 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 27L, achieving a score of 99.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,230 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good precision, and the aircraft landed on the runway with a threshold height that met the required standards.
The touchdown speed of 130 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly fast during the landing. However, the touchdown rate of -181 feet per minute (fpm) was good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable descent rate. The runway touchdown alignment was 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 30°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing, as the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.
The total landing distance of 5,108 feet was 57% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was executed with good precision and control, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a relatively short distance.
