Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 3°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 1,790 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,790 m of the 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 439 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 22L at Chicago Midway International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,076 meters, which was 67% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 146 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -4°C, with a wind speed of 13 knots at 170°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Chicago Midway International Airport. The climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 150 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,659 feet above sea level to 36,777 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,117 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 6 miles southeast of Martinsville, Illinois. This phase of the flight lasted 12 minutes and covered a distance of 242 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles north of Tullahoma, Tennessee. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 140 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 36,956 feet above sea level to 5,084 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,873 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which started 3 miles west of Redan, Georgia. This phase of the flight lasted only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 3 miles north of the Pinetree Heliport in Cumming, Georgia. The descent took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 4,622 feet above sea level to 2,444 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,178 feet.
The final approach to runway 26R at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 269.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,420 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 26R, which had a length of 2,738 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 138 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 441 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 131 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -223 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 329°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,710 meters, which was 62% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 554 nautical miles, and the flight used 3,583 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 26R at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) with a score of 97.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 269.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,420 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft touched down on the runway with a distance of 441 meters, which is considered good.
The touchdown speed of 131 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly fast on touchdown. However, the touchdown rate of -223 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of touchdown relatively well. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 329°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft was able to maintain good control and alignment during the landing roll.
The total landing distance of 1,710 meters was 62% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's weight and the wind conditions. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
