Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
At the 500 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,049 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 178 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 CYQM Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport. This process took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 06, with a takeoff distance of 1,507 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead CYQM Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport, rising from 1,138 feet above sea level to 12,174 feet above sea level, an increase of 11,036 feet in just 4 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of -0°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 49°.
The enroute descent started 5 miles north of CCG4 Moncton / McEwen Airport, with the aircraft descending from 12,813 feet above sea level to 8,049 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,765 feet in 5 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 8 miles northwest of Salisbury, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered 20 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started again 8 miles east of CCS4 Chipman Airport, with the aircraft descending from 8,008 feet above sea level to 5,010 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,998 feet in 3 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 12 miles northwest of CCC5 Havelock, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered 10 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started once more 8 miles west of CCC5 Havelock, with the aircraft descending from 4,811 feet above sea level to 3,324 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,487 feet in 2 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 7 miles southwest of CCC5 Havelock, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered 26 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06 at CYQM Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport began from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 42.0° and 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 06, which had a length of 3,049 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 126 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 174 meters, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was very hard at -547 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.7 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -1°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 43°.
The total landing distance was 682 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 22.6 meters from the centreline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 20 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 112 nautical miles, and the flight used -2,353 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at CYQM Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport, but with some notable deviations from ideal landing conditions. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 42.0° at 4 nautical miles and 972 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 06, which has a length of 3,049 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 126 knots. This could be attributed to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected. The touchdown distance of 174 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 120 knots was also good. However, the touchdown rate was very hard at -547 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a steeper-than-desired descent or a late flare.
One of the notable issues with this landing was the significant misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was 19.7 meters off the centerline. This could be due to a combination of factors, including crosswind, pilot error, or a navigation system malfunction. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of -1°C and a headwind of 9 knots at 43°, may have also contributed to the misalignment.
The total landing distance of 682 meters was 22% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 22.6 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a continued issue with the aircraft's navigation or control systems.
Overall, while the Airbus A319 successfully landed at CYQM Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport, there were some notable deviations from ideal landing conditions. These issues may require further investigation and correction to ensure safe and efficient operations.
