Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 204 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 174 kt against a target of 204 kt, running 30 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 204 kt.
Arrival
Take the power back earlier on final, so the aircraft settles onto the path and the speed comes back to 146 kt together. Do not push down for the height: that only adds speed.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 79 ft agl, 29 ft agl above the 50 ft agl target, and at 153 kt, 7 kt over the 146 kt threshold speed. High and fast together is energy the runway has to absorb, and this touchdown came 502 m beyond the aim point.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 146 kt on short final, then 50 ft agl over the threshold
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,883 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,883 m of the 3,353 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 959 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from the parking area to runway 23 at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport in 18 minutes, covering a ground distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 23, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,422 m, representing 45 % of the runway length, and rotated at 156 kt. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 205°, including a 2 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile west of CYYZ, with the airplane climbing from 1,458 ft asl to 32,976 ft asl, an altitude gain of 31,518 ft achieved in 13 minutes while traversing 78 nm.
Level cruise began 15 miles south of Cobourg, Ontario, and was maintained for 14 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 108 nm at cruise altitude.
Descent started 3 miles south-west of Theresa, New York, with a reduction from 33,003 ft asl to 1,528 ft asl, a loss of 31,475 ft accomplished in 22 minutes over a distance of 121 nm.
The final approach to runway 06L at CYUL Montreal Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport involved a descent from 1,440 ft agl to 126 ft agl in 110 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 06L was executed with a runway length of 3,353 m; the threshold height of 79 ft agl was above target, while the threshold speed was recorded at 153 kt. Touchdown occurred 527 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 140 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 181 fpm, and the touchdown point was laterally offset by 18.6 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 7 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 26°, including a 1 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind.
The total landing distance measured 1,787 m, equivalent to 53 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was off by 23.7 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 11 minutes, covering an additional 2 nm on the ground.
In summary, the flight covered a total distance of 318 nm, required 73 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 7,919 kg of fuel.
