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 1,668 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,668 m of the 3,486 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 766 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 15 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, Vueling EC-MGZ, then departed from runway 24L at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,273 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile south of the airport, rising from 1,008 feet above sea level to 15,448 feet above sea level in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 26 miles south of Castelldefels, lasting 2 minutes and covering 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 36 miles south of LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, rising from 16,301 feet above sea level to 32,084 feet above sea level in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile west of Sencelles, lasting 7 minutes and covering 55 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 37 miles south of Ses Salines, descending from 32,224 feet above sea level to 16,940 feet above sea level in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb 31 miles north of Dellys, rising from 16,889 feet above sea level to 17,659 feet above sea level in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 23 miles north of Dellys, descending from 17,269 feet above sea level to 2,230 feet above sea level in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 4 miles north of Boumerdas, lasting 3 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23 at DAAG Houari Boumediene Airport was made from the north-east, with a heading of 233.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,284 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 23 was successful, with a touchdown point 343 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 125 knots, which was good, while the touchdown rate was fair at -229 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13.0 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 240 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 9 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,581 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.8 meters from the centreline. 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 303 nautical miles, taking 72 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,991 kilograms of fuel.
A Vueling aircraft, registered as EC-MGZ, successfully landed at Houari Boumediene Airport, which is located in Algiers, Algeria. The aircraft achieved a high score of 88.8% for its landing performance. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north-east, with a heading of 233.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 143 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown point was located 343 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was also within the acceptable range, but the touchdown rate of -229 feet per minute was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 13 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 240°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 9 knots, which may have helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,581 meters was 45% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the runway length of 3,486 meters. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.8 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended landing spot.
Overall, the landing performance of the Vueling aircraft was good, with a high score and a relatively short landing distance. However, there were some minor deviations from the intended landing spot, which may have been due to the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position and the runway rollout alignment.
