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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,350 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 396 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at San Salvador Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 10, with the aircraft taking off at a speed of 140 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 33 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 140 degrees.
The aircraft's takeoff distance was 1,361 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway length. The enroute climb started shortly after takeoff, approximately 1 mile east of Cockburn Town in the Bahamas. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,024 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 37,259 feet, an increase of 36,235 feet in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 167 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 162 minutes and covered a distance of 1,074 nautical miles. The cruise phase took place at a specific location, with coordinates of 25.8128112 degrees latitude and -72.0953413 degrees longitude. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 4 miles west of Benson in Vermont, United States. The descent took place from an altitude of 36,457 feet to 3,006 feet, a decrease of 33,451 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time lasting only 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles, starting 3 miles west of Beauharnois in Quebec, Canada. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead CSP6 Montreal / Aéroparc Île Perrot Montréal in Quebec, Canada. The descent took place from an altitude of 2,672 feet to 1,382 feet, a decrease of 1,290 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06L at Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport took place from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 42.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 06L, which had a length of 3,350 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 132 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 397 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 122 knots. The touchdown rate was hard at -462 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 9 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,231 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 4 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,356 nautical miles, taking a total of 225 minutes, and the aircraft used 8,512 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at CYUL Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, achieving a score of 95.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 42.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,271 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed on runway 06L, which has a length of 3,350 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 132 knots. This may indicate a slight overcorrection by the pilots, but it did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance was good at 397 meters, indicating that the pilots maintained a stable approach and managed the aircraft's descent effectively.
However, the touchdown speed of 122 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate of -462 feet per minute (fpm). A faster touchdown speed can result in a harder landing, which may be uncomfortable for passengers and potentially damage the aircraft. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 12 knots at 9°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots. These conditions did not significantly impact the landing performance, and the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft throughout the approach and landing phases.
The total landing distance was 1,231 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilots executed a good approach and managed the aircraft's descent effectively. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and were able to bring it to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach and landing phases.
