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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,053 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 382 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 10L at SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport in São Paulo, Brazil. The takeoff distance was 2,246 meters, which accounted for 63% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 150 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles northeast of SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport, rising from an altitude of 3,491 feet above sea level to 21,927 feet above sea level in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 82 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 11 miles south of Cunha, São Paulo, Brazil, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 7 miles southwest of SILI Ilha dos Porcos Grandes Airport Angra Dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The descent from 21,936 feet above sea level to 1,301 feet above sea level took 14 minutes, covering a distance of 65 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15 at SBGL Rio Galeão – Tom Jobim International Airport was made from the northwest, heading 126.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 15 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 379 meters and a touchdown speed of 130 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -364 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 60 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,116 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 183 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 42 minutes. The aircraft used 2,221 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at SBGL Rio Galeão – Tom Jobim International Airport, achieving a high score of 95.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, heading 126.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,271 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on runway 15, which has a length of 3,053 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 134 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 379 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
The touchdown speed of 130 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -364 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of touchdown without any issues. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.2 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilot's approach technique.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 5 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The total landing distance of 1,116 meters was 37% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilot's braking technique. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
