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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,185 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,185 m of the 3,728 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 346 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 area to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A300, then departed from runway 18 at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF). The takeoff distance was 1,804 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 172 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 17°C and wind speeds of 6 knots at 199 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. After departing from Frankfurt, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles west of Moerfelden-Walldorf in Hessen, Germany. The climb took 22 minutes and covered a distance of 161 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from 1,335 feet above sea level to 32,829 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles north of Munich in Bavaria, Germany. This phase lasted for 280 minutes and covered a distance of 1,564 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 42 miles southwest of Ras Shukeir Airport in Egypt. The descent took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 80 nautical miles, with the aircraft dropping from 34,354 feet to 992 feet above sea level.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 34R at Hurghada International Airport (HEGN). The approach was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 345.0 degrees at an altitude of 915 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 34R, which has a length of 3,728 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots.
The touchdown distance was 347 meters, which is a good distance considering the runway length. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 132 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 feet per minute. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were hot, with a temperature of 32°C.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total landing distance was 2,106 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was significantly misaligned by 36.2 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 1,813 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 250 minutes. The aircraft used a significant amount of fuel, with a total consumption of 22,206 kilograms.
The Airbus A300 aircraft successfully landed at Hurghada International Airport (HEGN) on runway 34R, achieving an overall score of 88.4%. The final approach to the runway was initiated from the south, heading 345.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 915 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 134 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 132 knots was slightly faster than ideal, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed. The touchdown distance of 347 meters was also within acceptable limits.
The aircraft's descent rate during touchdown was smooth, with a rate of -148 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.7 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 32°C, which may have affected the aircraft's performance. The total landing distance of 2,106 meters was 56% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment with the runway centreline was significantly misaligned by 36.2 meters. This may have been due to a combination of factors, including the initial touchdown position and the aircraft's braking performance. Overall, the landing was considered successful, but with some areas for improvement.
