Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,033 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 499 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 Munich Airport, EDDM. This process took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 26L, with a takeoff distance of 1,972 meters, which was 49% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 165 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 7°C temperature and winds of 8 knots at 20°. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the tailwind was 4 knots. After departing from Munich, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting overhead Hallbergmoos in Bavaria, Germany. The climb took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 89 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 2,508 feet above sea level to 31,842 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile west of Hemhofen in Bavaria, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 18 minutes and covered 126 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles west of Hardegsen in Lower Saxony, Germany. The descent took 18 minutes and covered 97 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 31,024 feet to 1,633 feet.
After the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise, starting overhead Prinzhofte in Lower Saxony, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 4 minutes and covered 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 09 at Bremen Airport, EDDW, from the west. The approach was made at a heading of 87.0°, 4 nautical miles from the runway, and 1,255 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed on runway 09, which had a length of 2,033 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 127 knots. However, the touchdown point was 77 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 124 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -254 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.4 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 1,107 meters, which was 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 334 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 71 minutes. The aircraft used 2,470 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at EDDW Bremen Airport, achieving a score of 97.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 87.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,255 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, touching down on runway 09, which has a length of 2,033 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 127 knots, indicating a well-executed landing. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, located 77 meters down the runway. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was a bit faster than ideal, and the touchdown rate of -254 feet per minute (fpm) was fair but not exceptional.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 7.4 meters, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the pilot's alignment during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 20°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,107 meters was 54% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.0 meters, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the pilot's alignment during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
