Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 1.7°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Keep easing the back pressure to let the aircraft settle from 22 ft instead of holding it level.
What happened: The sink was arrested at 22 ft and held there instead of being let down.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: continuous descent through the normal flare band to touchdown
See Arrival Landing
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,365 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 334 m 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A319 then departed from runway 03 at CYYG Charlottetown Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,155 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 144 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 1 °C, with a wind speed of 17 knots blowing from 350 °. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 16 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of CYYG Charlottetown Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,127 feet above sea level to 34,574 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,447 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 104 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 12 miles northeast of CCS4 Chipman Airport, and lasted for 81 minutes, covering a distance of 520 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 4 miles north of CPF8 Campbellford, descending from 35,211 feet above sea level to 2,845 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,366 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 3 miles south of CPM5 Volk Airport, and lasted for 14 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15L at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport was made from the northwest, with a heading of 137.0 ° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was initiated at an altitude of 426 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 15L, with a runway length of 3,365 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 127 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 334 meters, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, which was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -410 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.2 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 °C, with a wind speed of 6 knots blowing from 200 °. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,296 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 745 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 171 minutes. The aircraft used 5,870 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport on runway 15L, achieving a score of 95.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northwest, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 127 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 334 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
However, the touchdown rate was reported as hard, with a rate of -410 feet per minute (fpm). This may indicate that the aircraft touched down with a higher than ideal rate, which could have resulted in a bumpy ride for passengers. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.2 meters from the centerline, which may have required the pilots to make some adjustments during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 2°C and winds of 6 knots at 200°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were likely manageable for the pilots, but may have required some adjustments to the aircraft's approach and landing configuration.
The total landing distance of 1,296 meters was 39% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, with a very good runway rollout alignment. Overall, the landing was successful, but with some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
