Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 150 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 169 kt, 19 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 150 kt at liftoff

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,539 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 404 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport, a process that took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 10L, with a takeoff distance of 2,328 meters, which is 66% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 169 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 169°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles northeast of SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport, São Paulo, Brazil, and climbed from an altitude of 3,461 feet above sea level to 30,139 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,678 feet, in 13 minutes and covering 50 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 6 miles west of Juquitiba, São Paulo, Brazil, and lasted 7 minutes, covering 46 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 3 miles east of SBWS Registro Airport, Registro, São Paulo, Brazil, and descended from 30,744 feet above sea level to 1,301 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,444 feet, in 26 minutes and covering 118 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33 at SBJV Lauro Carneiro de Loyola Airport was made from the southeast, heading 309.0°, at 4 nautical miles and 1,275 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 33 was successful, with a runway length of 1,539 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 133 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 406 meters, but the touchdown speed of 127 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate was smooth at -143 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 260°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,090 meters, which is 71% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 221 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 57 minutes. The aircraft used 2,039 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at SBJV Lauro Carneiro de Loyola Airport, achieving a high score of 99.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 309.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot's final approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 133 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 406 meters, which is within the expected range. However, the touchdown speed of 127 knots was slightly faster than the ideal speed, indicating that the pilot may have needed to apply more braking force upon touchdown. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -143 feet per minute (fpm), which suggests that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled.
One area for improvement was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a light wind of 2 knots at 260°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth and controlled landing, with a total landing distance of 1,090 meters, which is 71% of the runway length. Overall, the pilot's performance was commendable, and the aircraft's systems functioned as expected.
