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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,447 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 472 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A319 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EDHL Lübeck Blankensee Airport, a process that took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 25, with a takeoff distance of 981 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 138 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 23°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 240°. The crosswind was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind was 10 knots. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile northeast of Krummesse, Germany, where the aircraft ascended from 1,044 feet above sea level to 37,220 feet, an increase of 36,175 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Eberholzen, Germany, and lasted for 56 minutes, covering 353 nautical miles. The enroute descent began approximately 1 mile northwest of Intragna, Switzerland, where the aircraft descended from 37,313 feet to 1,250 feet, a decrease of 36,063 feet in 30 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles south of Mele, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles. Subsequent climbs and level cruises took place over various locations in Italy, including Genoa, Arenzano, and San Cristoforo. The final descent began overhead Corsico, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 11,903 feet to 1,547 feet, a decrease of 10,357 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 18 at LIML Milano Linate Airport, heading 176.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,193 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 18, which had a length of 2,447 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was 127 knots. The touchdown point was 50 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 118 knots and a firm touchdown rate of -386 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 13.0 meters. The total landing distance was 1,284 meters, accounting for 52% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 12.5 meters. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took approximately 6 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 655 nautical miles, taking 146 minutes and consuming 5,630 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at LIML Milano Linate Airport, achieving a score of 91.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 176.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,193 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 127 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 50 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 118 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -386 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 13.0 meters, which may have contributed to a slightly uneven rollout.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a moderate wind of 14 knots at 130°. The crosswind component was 10 knots, while the headwind component was also 10 knots. The total landing distance was 1,284 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 12.5 meters, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal path.
Overall, the landing was successful, but the slight misalignment of the touchdown position and rollout alignment may require attention from the pilot to improve future landings.
