Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,891 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 456 m touchdown sits inside 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 EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 22R, with a takeoff distance of 1,609 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 31°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 4 miles southwest of Dragor in Region Hovedstaden, Denmark. The climb took 17 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,009 feet above sea level to 36,392 feet, an increase of 35,383 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting overhead Bernstorf in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted 43 minutes and covered a distance of 327 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles north of Egglkofen in Bavaria, Germany. The descent took 18 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 36,350 feet to 12,878 feet, a decrease of 23,472 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles southeast of Haeselgehr in Tirol, Austria. This phase of the flight lasted only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles northwest of Mils bei Imst in Tirol, Austria. The descent took 10 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 12,866 feet to 2,969 feet, a decrease of 9,897 feet.
The final approach to runway 08 at LOWI Innsbruck Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 81.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,039 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 117 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -133 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 22.4 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 290°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,235 meters, which accounted for 65% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 22.8 meters from the centerline.
The flight then concluded with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 582 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 102 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 3,844 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at Innsbruck Airport (LOWI) with a score of 88.1%. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 81.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,039 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 08, which has a length of 1,891 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 125 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the landing. The touchdown distance of 456 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a safe distance from the runway's end.
The touchdown speed of 117 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -133 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down without any significant impact. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 22.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 290°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, and the tailwind component was 6 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the misaligned touchdown position.
The total landing distance of 1,235 meters was 65% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 22.8 meters from the centerline, which may indicate that the pilot was not able to maintain a straight course during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a straight course during the touchdown and rollout phases.
