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.
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 1,616 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,616 m of the 2,925 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 376 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 31C at Chicago Midway International Airport. The takeoff distance was 924 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of -1 °C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 289°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Chicago Midway International Airport and climbing from 1,658 feet above sea level to 33,859 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,201 feet in 17 minutes, covering 94 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Allegan, Michigan, and lasted for 50 minutes, covering 412 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles east of Camden East Airstrip in Odessa, Ontario, and descending from 33,109 feet above sea level to 3,941 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,168 feet in 23 minutes, covering 147 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again, this time 2 miles northwest of Laval, Quebec, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile southeast of Terrebonne, Quebec, and descending from 3,529 feet above sea level to 2,734 feet above sea level, a decrease of 795 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started once more, this time 2 miles west of Charlemagne, Quebec, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering 14 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 24L at Montreal/Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, approaching from the northeast at a heading of 223.0° and 4 nautical miles from the airport.
The landing was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 136 knots. The touchdown distance was 375 meters, and the touchdown speed was 134 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -319 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -14 °C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 320°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,533 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 685 nautical miles, taking 111 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,138 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (CYUL) on runway 24L. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,282 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.4%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 134 knots, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 136 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 375 meters was well within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -319 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a stable and controlled touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -14°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 320°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the tailwind component was negligible at 1 knot. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing, with the aircraft maintaining a perfect runway touchdown alignment.
The total landing distance of 1,533 meters was 52% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, reflecting the skills and expertise of the pilots involved.
