Improve the takeoff
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.

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.

The rest of the report
The Airbus A330-900 taxied from the parking area to runway 19L at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, a movement that lasted 8 minutes and covered 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 19L, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 5,441 ft, representing 56 % of the runway, and lifted off at 159 kt; local conditions were 62 °F with a 2 kt wind from 210°, resulting in a 0 kt crosswind, a 1 kt headwind and a 0 kt tailwind component.
The initial climb began 2 mi north-west of Jessheim, rising from 1,638 ft asl to 30,809 ft asl, an altitude gain of 29,172 ft achieved in 12 minutes while covering 74 nm.
Level cruise commenced 9 mi north-east of Fossby and continued for 97 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 784 nm.
A second climb started 3 mi north-west of Csemo, Hungary, climbing from 31,001 ft asl to 38,955 ft asl, a gain of 7,954 ft in 7 minutes and covering 56 nm.
The subsequent cruise segment began 1 mi east of Domaszek, Hungary, lasting 60 minutes and encompassing 518 nm.
Descent began overhead Nea Filadelfeia, Greece, with the aircraft descending from 38,997 ft asl to 11,914 ft asl, a loss of 27,082 ft in 18 minutes while covering 134 nm.
A brief level cruise followed 22 mi north-east of Stavros, Crete, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 8 nm.
The next descent started 13 mi north-east of Stavros, descending from 11,352 ft asl to 1,687 ft asl, a reduction of 9,664 ft in 10 minutes and covering 36 nm.
Final approach to runway 29 at LGSA Chania International Airport was executed from the east on a heading of 292.0°, at 4 nm and 1,213 ft agl.
Landing on runway 29, which is 10,971 ft long, occurred with a threshold speed of 126 kt (slightly below target); touchdown was 225 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 118 kt and a vertical speed of minus 167 fpm, with the touchdown point 34 ft off the centreline. Ambient conditions were 75 °F with calm wind (0 kt from 360°) and no cross- or headwind component.
The runway rollout covered a distance of 4,183 ft, representing 38 % of the runway length, and the aircraft’s alignment was 35 ft off the centreline at the end of the roll.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,616 nm, required 221 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 45,141 lb of fuel.
The Airbus A330-900 entered the final approach to runway 29 at LGSA Chania International Airport from the east on a heading of 292.0° at 4 nm and 1,213 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was 75 °F with wind 0 kt from 360°, no cross-wind or head-wind component.
During the threshold and flare the aircraft maintained a threshold speed of 126 kt, noted as slightly below target, and a good threshold height. Touchdown occurred 225 ft beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 118 kt described as good and a touchdown rate of -167 fpm also good. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 34 ft from the centreline.
Touchdown was completed on runway 29, whose length is 10,971 ft, and the aircraft’s speed and rate remained within the acceptable ranges noted. The slight lateral offset of 34 ft from the centreline was recorded at the point of contact.
Rollout covered a total landing distance of 4,183 ft, representing 38 % of the runway, and the aircraft’s alignment during rollout was slightly misaligned by 35 ft from the centreline.
Refine centreline tracking to reduce the 34-35 ft lateral deviation observed at touchdown and rollout, and aim to place the main gear closer to the designated touchdown zone to avoid the 225 ft overshoot. These adjustments will help convert the already strong 95.1 % score into an even tighter performance.
