Departure
Reduce climb power to bring speed back to 168 kt and hold it there.
What happened: Climb speed was 33 kt fast at 201 kt during the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 168 kt in the climb
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.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Rotated at 147 kt, 3 kt above the 144 kt target, and lifted off at 159 kt 2.3 s later, the nose coming up at 1.8° a second. Climb 3 averaged 201 kt, 33 kt over its 168 kt target.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 989 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 1,012 m of runway left; gear up at 6 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 1,890 fpm on average to 989 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 3,742 m runway.
Rolled from 1,552 m in, never more than 1.5 m off the centreline. Airborne 63 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
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 1,000 ft gate: centreline more than 1° off.

The rest of the report
The Airbus A321ceo departed from runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport. Take-off used 2,377 m of runway (64 % of runway) and rotation occurred at 147 kt. Local weather was 11 °C with wind 4 kt from 003°, a 3 kt cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 29 seconds, averaging 1,759 fpm and reaching 207 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,533 ft asl to 3,963 ft asl in 1 minute while covering 3 nm, beginning about 1 mile north-west of the airport.
During descent the aircraft went from 3,876 ft asl to 1,694 ft asl in 6 minutes, covering 19 nm and starting about 1 mile east of Kobanya, with a brief level-off at 2,500 ft asl.
Final approach was to runway 13R at LHBP. Descent from 1,287 ft agl to 99 ft agl took 98 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, speed and wings level; the centreline check was not met at one gate. Configuration on final was flap 5 at 851 ft agl with a speed of 150 kt. Autopilot was disconnected at 1,598 ft agl at 152 kt.
Landing on runway 13R (runway length 3,044 m) had a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 137 kt. The flare was described as very good; the aircraft dropped onto the runway at the end of the flare. Touchdown occurred 353 m beyond the touchdown zone at 124 kt, a speed judged good. Touchdown rate was hard at minus 477 fpm and the touchdown point was misaligned by 8.1 m from the centreline. Local weather at landing was 11 °C with wind 4 kt from 220°, a 4 kt cross-wind and no head-wind. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,813 m (60 % of runway) and rollout alignment was perfect.
The total flight covered 35 nm, lasted 12 minutes and used 585 kg of fuel.
