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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 11,190 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,581 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 16 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 07C at Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH). The takeoff distance was 4,335 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 162 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 76 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 84 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the Hong Kong International Airport. The climb took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 154 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,099 feet above sea level to 38,195 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 36 miles west of the Dongsha Island Airport in Taiwan. This phase lasted for 56 minutes and covered a distance of 412 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles west of Mabalacat City in the Philippines. The descent took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 38,568 feet to 20,810 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead Pio in the Philippines and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 5 miles east of Samal in the Philippines. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 25 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 20,594 feet to 1,369 feet.
The final approach to runway 06 at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (RPLL) was made from the southwest, with a heading of 60.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,325 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 06, which had a length of 11,190 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots.
The touchdown point was 219 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 140 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -307 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 13 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 79 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 90 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 4,295 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 628 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 129 minutes. The aircraft used 12,014 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.2%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 60.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,325 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 148 knots. The touchdown point was located 219 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was also a bit faster than desired, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -307 feet per minute.
Despite the minor deviations, the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned by 13 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 79°F and a gentle wind of 5 knots at 90°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 4,295 feet was 38% of the available runway length of 11,190 feet. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. The runway rollout alignment was excellent, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
