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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Plan view — the first 5,302 ft of the 9,980 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,613 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft in question was an Airbus A319, and it departed from runway 09R at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport. The takeoff distance was 6,202 feet, which accounted for 78% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 71°F and winds of 3 knots at 29°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead Rosemont, Illinois, and the aircraft ascended from 1,695 feet above sea level to 37,221 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,526 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 113 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 1 mile south of Danville, Illinois, and lasted for 34 minutes, covering a distance of 255 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 5 miles west of Soggy Bottom Airport in Dowelltown, Tennessee, and descended from 37,104 feet above sea level to 33,523 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,581 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 52 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 5 miles south of Tracy City, Tennessee, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 48 nautical miles.
The final descent began 3 miles southeast of Flylander Farm Airport in Summerville, Georgia, and the aircraft descended from 32,749 feet above sea level to 2,257 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,492 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 66 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 26L at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport from the east, heading 270.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,215 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 26L was successful, with a touchdown point 246 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 120 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -253 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 66°F and winds of 2 knots at 20°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 5,035 feet, which accounted for 50% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 33 feet from the centreline. The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 543 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 94 minutes. The aircraft used 7,681 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 26L. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,215 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 126 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 246 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center. However, the touchdown speed of 120 knots was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -253 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 66°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 20°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each. The total landing distance of 5,035 feet was 50% of the available runway length, which is 9,980 feet. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for safe deceleration.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-center by 33 feet from the centerline. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance of the Airbus A319 was satisfactory, with a score of 96.7%.
