Arrival
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 8.7 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 8.7 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.
See Arrival Landing
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 7,318 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 7,318 ft of the 10,375 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,415 ft 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 32 at ORMM Basra International Airport. The takeoff distance was 5,257 feet, which was 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 151 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 67°F, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 340°.
As the aircraft climbed out of Basra, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northwest of the airport. The climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 120 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,055 feet above sea level to 34,863 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,809 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 18 miles east of AG04 Amphibious Ready Group - Persian Gulf, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 32 miles southeast of AG04 Amphibious Ready Group - Persian Gulf. The climb took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 29 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 35,210 feet above sea level to 37,206 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,997 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 38 miles southwest of OIBQ Khark Airport Khark, and lasted for 52 minutes, covering a distance of 422 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 14 miles west of Liwa. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 102 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 37,119 feet above sea level to 10,578 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,540 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 4 miles southeast of Barka', and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute descent, this time from 5 miles southwest of Seeb. The descent took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile, during which the aircraft descended from 9,972 feet above sea level to 2,296 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,676 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 5 miles southwest of Seeb, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08R at OOMS Muscat International Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 85.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 10,375 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,410 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 19 feet from the centreline.
The total landing distance was 7,051 feet, which was 68% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 38 feet from the centreline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 709 nautical miles, and the flight took 121 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 10,533 pounds of fuel during the flight
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at OOMS Muscat International Airport, achieving a score of 96.0%. The final approach to runway 08R was initiated from the west, with a heading of 85.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 139 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a slightly higher touchdown rate. Fortunately, the touchdown rate was still smooth at -148 feet per minute (fpm).
Upon landing, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 19 feet, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or landing technique. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 72°F and no wind, resulting in a crosswind and headwind of 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 7,051 feet was within the acceptable range, accounting for 68% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 38 feet, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the landing technique or the aircraft's response to the brakes.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a score of 96.0%. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and runway alignment during rollout.
