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.
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 2,086 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,086 m of the 2,597 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 372 m touchdown sits inside 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 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 33 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,222 meters, which is 38% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 310°. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. After departing from Hamburg, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of Norderstedt, Germany. The climb took 24 minutes and covered 130 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from 1,088 feet above sea level to 36,158 feet.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Abberode, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, and lasted for 62 minutes, covering 404 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles south of Colorno, Italy. The descent took 23 minutes and covered 76 nautical miles, with the aircraft dropping from 36,384 feet to 1,315 feet.
The final approach to runway 04R at LIRP Pisa International Airport was made from the southwest, heading 37.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,299 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 2,597 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 372 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 133 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -325 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at Pisa were a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 180°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 1 knot.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 618 nautical miles, taking 120 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,578 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at Pisa International Airport (LIRP) on runway 04R, achieving a score of 97.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 37.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,299 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed smoothly on the runway.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 133 knots was a bit faster than desired, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate of -325 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the touchdown distance of 372 meters was within acceptable limits.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 180°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which contributed to a stable and controlled approach.
The total landing distance of 2,006 meters was 77% of the runway length, indicating a good utilization of the available runway space. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, resulting in a high score of 97.7%.
