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.

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 1,891 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 459 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 15 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 04R at Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, a 1,264-meter runway that was used for 43% of its takeoff distance. The liftoff speed was 162 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 18°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 110°.
As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport. The climb took 16 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,028 feet above sea level to 31,589 feet, an increase of 30,561 feet. The distance covered during this period was 86 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 3 miles south-east of Genoa, Italy, and lasted for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started overhead Provaglio Val Sabbia, Italy, and took 5 minutes to descend from 30,787 feet to 15,289 feet, a decrease of 15,498 feet. The distance covered during this period was 35 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 1 mile north of Molveno, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The enroute descent then started 1 mile south of Vervo, Italy, and took 3 minutes to descend from 14,912 feet to 12,919 feet, a decrease of 1,993 feet. The distance covered during this period was 16 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started overhead San Genesio Atesino, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The enroute climb then started 1 mile north of Sarentino, Italy, and took 3 minutes to ascend from 12,932 feet to 14,399 feet, an increase of 1,467 feet. The distance covered during this period was 16 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 3 miles north-west of Vipiteno, Italy, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute descent then started 6 miles west of Gschnitz, Austria, and took 2 minutes to descend from 14,389 feet to 13,218 feet, a decrease of 1,170 feet. The distance covered during this period was 8 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 4 miles south-east of Umhausen, Austria, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The enroute descent then started 3 miles north-west of Schoenwies, Austria, and took 7 minutes to descend from 12,958 feet to 2,585 feet, a decrease of 10,373 feet. The distance covered during this period was 24 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started overhead Inzing, Austria, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08 at Innsbruck Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 79.0° at 1 nautical mile and 403 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the 1,891-meter runway, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 127 knots, and the touchdown distance was good at 460 meters. The touchdown speed was 115 knots, and the touchdown rate was good at -180 feet
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Innsbruck Airport (LOWI) on runway 08, achieving a high score of 99.1%. The final approach was conducted from the west, with a heading of 79.0° at 1 nautical mile and 403 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach and landing were executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a touchdown speed of 115 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 127 knots.
The touchdown distance of 460 meters was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -180 feet per minute (fpm) was also within acceptable limits. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the approach and landing procedures.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 80°. The crosswind component was negligible, while the headwind component was 10 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly lower than expected threshold speed.
The total landing distance of 941 meters was 50% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and rolling out on the runway without any issues. However, the slight misalignment of the touchdown position and the lower than expected threshold speed may require some adjustments in the approach and landing procedures to ensure that future landings are even more precise and efficient.
