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 2,795 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 321 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 07L at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF). The Airbus A319 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,027 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the aircraft climbed steadily into the sky.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots at 80 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind was 17 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Kelsterbach, a town in the state of Hessen, Germany. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,382 feet above sea level to 4,842 feet, an increase of 3,460 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles south of Eppstein, another town in Hessen. This phase of the flight lasted for 8 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile northwest of Ober-Olm, a town in the state of Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. The descent from 4,594 feet to 1,595 feet, a decrease of 2,999 feet, took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport was made from the southwest, heading 69.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,246 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with a threshold speed of 124 knots and a touchdown distance of 318 meters, which was 38% of the runway. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 121 knots, but the touchdown rate was excellent at -66 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as during the takeoff, with a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 19 knots at 80 degrees. The crosswind was still minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind was 19 knots. The total landing distance was 1,056 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 12 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 35 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 31 minutes. The aircraft used 1,337 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed on runway 07L at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) with a score of 99.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 69.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,246 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was within the acceptable range at 124 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. The touchdown rate of -66 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a headwind of 19 knots at 80°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, which made the landing even more manageable. The total landing distance of 1,056 meters was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout distance.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's skills and experience were evident in the execution of the maneuver.
