Improve the takeoff
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,723 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,723 m of the 3,038 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 629 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight aboard the Airbus A321 began with a smooth taxi from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The departure roll took place on runway 11 at FMMI Ivato, with a takeoff distance of 1,500 m, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 155 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 14°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots coming from 140°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.
During the enroute climb, which commenced 2 miles east of FMMI Ivato in the Antananarivo region of Madagascar, the aircraft ascended from 5,113 ft above sea level to 34,714 ft above sea level, covering a distance of 173 nm in 24 minutes. The climb resulted in a total altitude increase of 29,601 ft. The subsequent enroute level cruise phase began 84 miles east of Andovoranto in the Atsinanana region of Madagascar and lasted for 35 minutes, covering a distance of 289 nm.
As the aircraft started its descent 35 miles north of Saint-Denis in Réunion, it descended from 35,255 ft above sea level to 3,440 ft above sea level, a total altitude decrease of 31,815 ft. The descent took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nm. The landing was executed smoothly on runway 14 at FIMP Mauritius Intl, which has a runway length of 3,038 meters. The height at the threshold was 31 ft above ground level, and the speed at the threshold was 134 knots. The touchdown occurred 630 meters from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots and a Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) reading of -274 feet per minute. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 24°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots coming from 140°, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance covered was 1,640 meters, which equated to 54% of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area, a journey that took 8 minutes and covered 1 nm. The entire flight covered a distance of 586 nm, lasting 104 minutes, and consumed a total of 4,536 kg of fuel.
