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.
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 2,263 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 348 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 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 10 at the MNMG Augusto C. Sandino (Managua) International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,075 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 36 degrees. There was a slight crosswind of 1 knot, but no headwind. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile east of the airport and continued for 35 minutes. During this period, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,220 feet above sea level to 38,902 feet, an increase of 37,682 feet. The enroute climb covered a distance of 255 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 33 miles west of the MRSN Sirena Airport in Costa Rica. This phase lasted for 137 minutes and covered a distance of 931 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 20 miles southeast of the SPQM San Lorenzo Airport in Peru. The descent from 39,095 feet to 2,074 feet took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 90 nautical miles.
The final approach to the runway was made at the SPST Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes Airport, with the aircraft approaching from the south at a heading of 350.0 degrees. The aircraft was at an altitude of 1,233 feet above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with no wind.
The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on runway 35 at a speed of 120 knots. The touchdown distance was 346 meters, which was 37% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was perfect at -3 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.1 meters from the centerline. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in just 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 1,282 nautical miles and lasted for 185 minutes. The aircraft used 7,129 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at SPST Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes Airport, achieving a high score of 98.9%. The final approach to runway 35 was conducted from the south, heading 350.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,233 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 128 knots. The touchdown distance of 346 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 120 knots was also good. The most notable aspect of the landing was the perfect touchdown rate of -3 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 5.1 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and no wind, resulting in a crosswind and headwind of 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 836 meters was 37% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled manner.
