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.

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 approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,810 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 524 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A319 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Yanji Chaoyangchuan Airport, taking approximately 5 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Departure roll took place on runway 27, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 147 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 273 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile west of the airport. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,657 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 37,282 feet, an increase of 35,625 feet in just 20 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 119 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began approximately 17 miles southeast of Jilin, China. This phase of the flight lasted for 102 minutes and covered a distance of 669 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started approximately 72 miles east of Dazhong, China. The descent took place from an altitude of 37,156 feet to 2,508 feet, a decrease of 34,648 feet in just 27 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 111 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began approximately 8 miles east of Yangpu Airport. This phase of the flight lasted for just 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started approximately 8 miles north of Shanghai Pudong International Airport. The descent took place from an altitude of 2,041 feet to 1,301 feet, a decrease of 740 feet in just 2 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16L at Shanghai Pudong International Airport took place from the north, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 162.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway, with the touchdown point being 103 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 119 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was firm at -318 feet per minute.
The total landing distance was 1,366 meters, which was 36% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 130 degrees.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 10 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 917 nautical miles, with the flight lasting for 171 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 6,243 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at ZSPD Shanghai Pudong International Airport, achieving a high score of 93.4%. The final approach to runway 16L was conducted from the north, with a heading of 162.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 123 knots. The touchdown point was 103 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 119 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -318 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a stable and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 29°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the aircraft's performance during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,366 meters was 36% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to maintain a high level of control and stability throughout the landing, and that the pilot was able to execute a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing of the Airbus A319 at ZSPD Shanghai Pudong International Airport was a successful and well-executed operation, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 93.4%. The pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were both impressive, and the landing was a testament to the safety and efficiency of modern aviation.
