Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 1,859 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,859 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 455 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 05 at Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport, with the Airbus A319 taking off after a distance of 1,298 meters, which is 70% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 270 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile west of Ottensen, a suburb in the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, Germany. The climb was steep, with the aircraft rising from an altitude of 1,059 feet above sea level to 2,781 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,722 feet in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile west of Eimsbuettel, another suburb in Hamburg. This phase lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile southwest of Bergstedt, a suburb in Hamburg. The descent was from an altitude of 2,908 feet above sea level to 1,303 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,605 feet in 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 232.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 23, which has a length of 1,859 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 120 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 453 meters, and the touchdown speed was 110 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -426 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 18.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 270 degrees.
The total landing distance was 2,143 meters, which is 115% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 25 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 15 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 688 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at EDHI Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airport, with a score of 79.3%. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 232.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 1,859 meters.
The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 120 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 453 meters. The touchdown speed of 110 knots was also good, indicating a smooth landing. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -426 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly rough landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 270°. This resulted in a crosswind and headwind of 0 knots, making the landing conditions ideal.
Despite the favorable weather conditions, the total landing distance was 2,143 meters, which is 115% of the runway length. This may indicate that the aircraft was slightly over-extended during the landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 18.9 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a slight deviation from the desired path during the landing roll.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway rollout alignment.
