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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,344 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,344 m of the 3,885 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 513 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a British Aerospace 146-200, then departed from runway 19L at YBBN Brisbane International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,074 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 138 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 190 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of Pinkenba, and climbed from an altitude of 1,044 feet above sea level to 26,617 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,573 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 79 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles northeast of Bonalbo. This phase lasted for 38 minutes and covered a distance of 291 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 5 miles east of Lower Macdonald, and descended from an altitude of 26,165 feet above sea level to 3,110 feet above sea level, a decrease of 23,055 feet, in 10 minutes and covering a distance of 50 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 6 miles southeast of Bundeena and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This was followed by another descent phase, which started 4 miles southeast of Bundeena and descended from an altitude of 3,096 feet above sea level to 1,232 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,864 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 34L at YSSY Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 348.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,208 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 34L, which had a length of 3,885 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the target at 132 knots.
The touchdown point was 93 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots and a touchdown rate of -153 feet per minute, both of which were good. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 330 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,260 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 440 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 88 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,999 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The British Aerospace 146-200 aircraft successfully landed at YSSY Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.2%. The final approach to runway 34L was conducted from the south, with the aircraft heading 348.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,208 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 93 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the target. However, the touchdown speed of 120 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -153 feet per minute (fpm) was also good. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 14°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from 330°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway length of 3,885 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 2,260 meters, which is approximately 58% of the runway.
The rollout alignment after touchdown was perfect, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were properly applied and the aircraft was brought to a stop in a controlled manner. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory.
