Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,202 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 212 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 Xuzhou Guanyin International Airport, taking approximately 8 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll occurred on runway 09, with a takeoff distance of 1,750 meters, which is 52% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 165 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Xuzhou Guanyin International Airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 8 knots at 357°. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of the airport and reaching an altitude of 17,956 feet above sea level, an increase of 16,844 feet in 8 minutes and covering 35 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 17 miles north of Pizhou, lasting 85 minutes and covering 389 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 16 miles northwest of Lüliang Dawu Airport and reaching an altitude of 34,830 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,252 feet in 11 minutes and covering 65 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 3 miles east of Yulin Yuyang Airport and lasted 14 minutes, covering 92 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 6 miles southwest of Ulan and descending from 34,706 feet above sea level to 4,967 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,739 feet in 17 minutes and covering 77 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at Yinchuan Hedong International Airport was made from the northeast, heading 209.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,240 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 21, which is 3,202 meters long, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was good at 128 knots, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 128 knots, resulting in a hard touchdown rate of -495 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centreline, and the local weather conditions were -3°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 257°. The crosswind was 7 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,173 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 21.2 meters from the centreline.
The flight concluded with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 666 nautical miles, taking 143 minutes, and the aircraft used 6,003 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at ZLIC Yinchuan Hedong International Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.3%. The final approach to runway 21 was initiated from the north east, heading 209.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,240 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a threshold speed of 128 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly higher than the desired speed, indicating a potential for a harder landing. The touchdown rate of -495 feet per minute was indeed hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have landed with a higher than ideal rate of descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.3 meters. This misalignment could have been due to various factors, including wind conditions or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -3°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 257°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,173 meters was 37% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned from the centreline by 21.2 meters, indicating that the aircraft may not have been properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement, including the touchdown speed and rate, as well as the runway touchdown position and rollout alignment. These issues can be addressed through further training and practice to ensure that the aircraft lands safely and efficiently.
