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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,101 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 496 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 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 36 at HSSS Khartoum, with a takeoff distance of 1,299 meters, which was 43% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 32°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 13°.
As the aircraft climbed, it started enroute climb 1 mile north of HSSS Khartoum, rising from 2,282 feet above sea level to 9,790 feet, an increase of 7,508 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began 9 miles northeast of HSSS Khartoum, lasting 3 minutes and covering 16 nautical miles. However, the aircraft then initiated another enroute climb 24 miles east of HSSS Khartoum, this time rising from 10,203 feet to 37,143 feet, an increase of 26,939 feet in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 230 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 22 miles northeast of Teseney, lasting 49 minutes and covering 386 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent 13 miles east of Zabid, descending from 37,085 feet to 1,291 feet, a decrease of 35,794 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 121 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 08 at OYAA Aden International Airport was made from the west, heading 77.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,271 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 08 was successful, with a touchdown point 78 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was good, but the touchdown rate was fair at -225 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 80°.
The total landing distance was 1,401 meters, which was 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.6 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 770 nautical miles, taking 119 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,448 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at OYAA Aden International Airport, achieving a high score of 96.9%. The final approach to runway 08 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 77.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 146 knots, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, located 78 meters past the threshold. The touchdown speed of 135 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.
Despite the good touchdown speed, the touchdown rate of -225 feet per minute was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly higher-than-desired rate of descent during the final stages of the approach. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.7 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and a gentle headwind of 5 knots from a direction of 80°. The crosswind component was negligible, with a speed of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 1,401 meters was 45% of the available runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient stopping distance to safely come to a stop.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.6 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating a high level of proficiency in the pilot's ability to conduct a safe and controlled landing.
