Improve the takeoff
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,799 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 285 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 area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 23 at ZYHB Harbin Taiping International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,184 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of -16 °C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 209 degrees.
As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead ZYHB Harbin Taiping International Airport. The climb took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 100 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,503 feet above sea level to 31,346 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,843 feet. The enroute level cruise then began 8 miles east of ZYCC Changchun Longjia International Airport, and it lasted for 85 minutes, covering a distance of 479 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 4 miles east of Gunsan, South Korea, and it took 19 minutes to descend from an altitude of 32,965 feet above sea level to 1,314 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,651 feet. The descent covered a distance of 68 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 01 at RKJB Muan International Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 360.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,260 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 01 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 286 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 132 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -313 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 3 °C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 340 degrees.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 656 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 135 minutes. The aircraft used 5,477 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RKJB Muan International Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south, heading 360.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the pilots to maintain a steady and controlled descent onto the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 132 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 135 knots. However, this minor deviation did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 286 meters was also within acceptable limits, indicating that the pilots had successfully managed the aircraft's descent and speed.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 340°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 9 knots, which the pilots effectively managed to minimize the impact on the landing. The touchdown rate of -313 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, but not excessively high, suggesting that the pilots had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline. This is a critical aspect of landing, as it ensures that the aircraft remains on course and avoids any potential deviations that could lead to a loss of control.
The total landing distance of 1,337 meters was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilots had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and descent to achieve a smooth and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilots had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing and had successfully brought it to a stop on the runway.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 737-800 at RKJB Muan International Airport was a success, with the pilots demonstrating a high level of proficiency in their approach and landing procedures. The aircraft's performance was within acceptable limits, and the pilots had successfully managed the local weather conditions to achieve a smooth and controlled landing.
