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.
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 2,096 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,096 m of the 3,988 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 699 m past the threshold — beyond 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 09 at GMAD Al Massira Airport in Agadir, Morocco. The takeoff distance was 1,692 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 155 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 90 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 7 knots, with no crosswind. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile east of the airport. The climb took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 52 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,318 feet above sea level to 33,924 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 14 miles south of GMMI Essaouira-Mogador Airport in Essaouira, Morocco. This phase lasted for 68 minutes and covered a distance of 517 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 5 miles southwest of Siruela, Spain. The descent took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 114 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 33,417 feet to 3,967 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles northwest of Perales de Tajuna, Spain. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 32L at LEMD Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport in Madrid, Spain. The approach was made from the southeast, with a heading of 322.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level.
The landing was made on runway 32L, which had a length of 3,988 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 143 knots. The touchdown point was 282 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 131 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -282 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 87 degrees. This resulted in a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 2,013 meters, which accounted for 50% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 705 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 2 hours. The aircraft used a total of 3,886 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at LEMD Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport, with a final approach score of 90.7%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southeast, heading 322.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed on runway 32L, which has a length of 3,988 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed was also good, at 143 knots, which is a safe speed for landing.
The touchdown point was 282 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center but not excessively so. The touchdown speed was 131 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -282 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
One notable issue with the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-center by 11.6 meters. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 87°. This minimal wind made the landing conditions relatively straightforward. The total landing distance was 2,013 meters, which is 50% of the runway length. Overall, while there were some minor issues with the landing, the Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully touched down safely on runway 32L at LEMD Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport.
