See Departure Roll
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,859 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 574 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport, a process that took 9 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 23, utilizing 92% of the runway's length, with a takeoff distance of 1,713 meters. The liftoff speed was 162 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 174°.
As the aircraft climbed, it started enroute climb 1 mile south west of EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,085 feet above sea level to 18,640 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,555 feet, in just 8 minutes and covering 36 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began 1 mile north east of Heerstedt, lasting 7 minutes and covering 37 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 1 mile south of Westermoor, where the aircraft descended from 18,221 feet above sea level to 1,303 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,917 feet, in 17 minutes and covering 22 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23 at EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport was made from the north east, with a heading of 232.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 23 was successful, with a touchdown point 158 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, which was considered good, while the touchdown rate was fair at -223 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 172°.
The total landing distance was 1,225 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 102 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 45 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1,756 kilograms.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport, achieving a high score of 98.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-east, heading 232.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot's final approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and speed of 136 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 158 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -223 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have maintained a more gradual descent.
Despite the minor issues with the touchdown rate, the overall landing performance was impressive. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 4°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots, were favorable for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,225 meters was 66% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot had maintained a high level of control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Airbus A320's landing at Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and precision. While there were some minor issues with the touchdown rate, the overall performance was impressive, and the aircraft landed safely and efficiently.
