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.
Side view — the last 1,588 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,588 m of the 3,287 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 417 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 to the runway at London Heathrow Airport, taking 8 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 09L, with a takeoff distance of 1,376 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots blowing from a direction of 90 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 11 knots, with no crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed away from London Heathrow Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 35,078 feet above sea level in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 129 nautical miles. The climb started at an altitude of 1,101 feet above sea level.
After reaching the cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 67 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase took place 38 miles east of Lowestoft, England.
The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 35,624 feet to 36,660 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,036 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. This climb phase started 42 miles east of Lowestoft.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 46 minutes and covered a distance of 334 nautical miles. This phase took place 43 miles northwest of Ter Heijde, The Netherlands.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent phase, which started 4 miles northeast of Bjerringbro, Denmark. The descent took place from an altitude of 36,285 feet above sea level to 2,506 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,779 feet in 30 minutes, covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a brief level cruise phase, lasting just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This phase took place 1 mile northwest of Tollered, Sweden.
The final approach to runway 21 at Göteborg Landvetter Airport took place from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 204.0 degrees at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,287 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 21 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 129 knots and a touchdown distance of 416 meters. The touchdown rate was fair at -286 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 3 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots blowing from a direction of 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,505 meters, which was 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 4 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 610 nautical miles, taking 116 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,621 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ESGG Göteborg Landvetter Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north east, heading 204.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,287 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the pilots to maintain a stable and controlled descent onto the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 21, which has a length of 3,287 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe and controlled approach. The threshold speed of 133 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilots' ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the final stages of the approach.
The touchdown distance of 416 meters was also good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain a stable and controlled touchdown. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was within the acceptable range, further demonstrating the pilots' ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing. However, the touchdown rate of -286 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilots may have been able to achieve a smoother touchdown.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain a stable and controlled approach and touchdown. This is a critical aspect of landing, as it ensures that the aircraft is properly aligned with the runway and can safely come to a stop.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 12 knots from 320°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots. Despite these challenging conditions, the pilots were able to maintain a stable and controlled approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 1,505 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilots were able to maintain a high level of control and precision during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown.
Overall, the Airbus A320's landing at ESGG Göteborg Landvetter Airport was a success, demonstrating the pilots' high level of proficiency and skill in approach and landing procedures.
