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.

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 2,132 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 412 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 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 13 at LIBR Brindisi Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,173 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at 120°.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it started its enroute climb overhead Materdomini in Puglia, Italy. The climb began at an altitude of 1,020 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 37,299 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,279 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 107 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile east of Manfredonia in Puglia, Italy, and lasted for 23 minutes, covering a distance of 182 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Cantiano in Marche, Italy, descending from 37,154 feet above sea level to 2,443 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,710 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 2 miles northwest of Castelfranco Emilia in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 12 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport was made from the west, heading 117.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,268 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 12 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 412 meters, which is good. The touchdown speed was 128 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -299 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 260°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the tailwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,264 meters, which is 59% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 405 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 83 minutes. The aircraft used 3,256 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The final approach to runway 12 was initiated from the west, with the aircraft heading 117.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was satisfactory, with a threshold height that met the required standards. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 132 knots, indicating a minor deviation from the optimal landing speed. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 412 meters was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown speed of 128 knots was also good.
The landing rate of -299 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down to the ground more smoothly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 260°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. These conditions did not appear to have significantly impacted the aircraft's performance during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,264 meters was 59% 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 aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Boeing 737-800 aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures, with a score of 97.6%. The minor deviations from the optimal landing speed and rate did not appear to have significantly impacted the aircraft's performance, and the landing was considered successful.
