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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,488 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,488 ft of the 9,996 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,852 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A220-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 31 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 31, the aircraft used 5,692 ft of runway, representing 81 % of the available length, and lifted off at 148 kt. Ambient conditions were 94 °F with a wind of 4 kt from 300°, providing a 4 kt headwind and zero crosswind.
Climb commenced overhead Port Morris, New York, with the airplane accelerating from 991 ft asl to 38,026 ft asl, an altitude gain of 37,035 ft achieved in 25 minutes while covering 155 nm.
Level cruise began 1 mile north-east of Erin, New York, and persisted for 27 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 190 nm.
Descent started 14 miles south of CNS6 Straffordville Airport, Ontario, descending from 37,922 ft asl to 1,780 ft asl, a loss of 36,141 ft in 23 minutes and covering 113 nm.
The final approach to runway 21L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport was executed from the north-east on a heading of 208.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,137 ft agl.
Landing on runway 21L, which is 9,996 ft long, occurred with a threshold speed of 126 kt (slightly below target). Touchdown was recorded 481 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 119 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 164 fpm and very good runway alignment.
Runway rollout covered a total landing distance of 5,217 ft, representing 52 % of the runway, and the alignment during rollout was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 11 minutes, traversing 3 nm.
In total, the flight covered 467 nm, took 91 minutes, and consumed 6,462 lbs of fuel.
The Airbus A220-300 received a Score of 98.7 % for the flight to runway 21L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport. On final approach the aircraft was inbound from the north-east on a heading of 208.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,137 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
Runway 21L has a length of 9,996 ft and a good threshold height. The threshold speed was slightly below target at 126 kt.
Touchdown occurred 481 ft beyond the touchdown zone. Touchdown speed at 119 kt was good and touchdown rate was good at minus 164 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good. Local weather was Temperature 59 °F, Wind 1 kt at 269 °, Crosswind 1 kt and Headwind 0 kt.
Total landing distance was 5,217 ft, representing 52 % of the runway. Runway rollout alignment was perfect.
To tighten the landing profile, aim to place the main gear within the first 1,000 ft of the runway and target the exact threshold speed of 126 kt. These minor adjustments will bring the already strong performance even closer to the ideal aim point.
