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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,571 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,571 m of the 2,739 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 525 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A319 taxied from the parking area to runway 09 at Key West International Airport (KEYW) in 27 minutes, covering a ground distance of 5 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 09, the aircraft used 1,154 m of runway, representing 79 % of the available length, and lifted off at 137 kt. Ambient conditions were 34 °C with a wind of 11 kt from 150°, including a 10 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced overhead Stock Island, Florida, with the airplane ascending from 985 ft asl to 38,009 ft asl-a gain of 37,024 ft-over 20 minutes while covering 127 nm.
The first cruise segment began 2 nm north of Southern Ranch Airport (2FA4) in Clewiston, Florida, and lasted 20 minutes, during which 137 nm were flown.
Descent number one started 1 nm south of Lockhart, Florida, with the aircraft descending from 38,004 ft asl to 35,010 ft asl, a loss of 2,994 ft in 3 minutes while covering 25 nm.
A second cruise phase originated 4 nm west of Paisley, Florida, persisting for 27 minutes and spanning 196 nm.
The second descent began 5 nm south of Glenwood, Georgia, where the airplane dropped from 34,945 ft asl to 8,003 ft asl-a decrease of 26,943 ft-in 16 minutes, covering 98 nm.
A brief cruise segment started 1 nm north of Jackson, Georgia, lasting 2 minutes and encompassing 8 nm.
Descent three was initiated 3 nm east of 63GA Zips Airport, McDonough, Georgia, with the aircraft descending from 8,009 ft asl to 2,284 ft asl, a loss of 5,725 ft in 6 minutes over 22 nm.
Final approach to runway 27L at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) was conducted from the east, on a heading of 270.0°, at 4 nm and 1,246 ft agl.
Landing on runway 27L, which is 2,739 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 137 kt. Touchdown was recorded 105 m beyond the touchdown zone at 121 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 69 fpm and a lateral offset of 5.8 m from the centreline. Local weather was 31 °C with a wind of 11 kt from 210°, including a 9 kt cross-wind and a 5 kt head-wind. The total landing distance measured 1,486 m, equivalent to 54 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
Runway rollout proceeded smoothly, maintaining the very good alignment noted at touchdown and bringing the aircraft to a stop within the calculated landing distance.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 625 nm, required 106 minutes of elapsed time, and used minus 451 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A319 established the final approach to runway 27L at KATL from the east, maintaining a heading of 270.0° at 4 nm and 1,246 ft agl. Local conditions were temperature 31 °C, wind 11 kt from 210°, providing a crosswind component of 9 kt and a headwind component of 5 kt.
The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was well above target at 137 kt.
Touchdown occurred 105 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 121 kt, noted as a little fast, and the vertical rate was excellent at minus 69 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.8 m from the centreline.
The aircraft required a total landing distance of 1,486 m, representing 54 % of the 2,739 m runway, and the rollout alignment was very good.
Reduce the approach speed to bring the threshold speed closer to target and aim to touch down within the designated zone to shorten the landing roll. Align the aircraft more precisely on the centreline to eliminate the 5.8 m offset.
