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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,106 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 348 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from GGOV Osvaldo Vieira International Airport in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau, the Boeing 737-900 began its journey with a smooth departure roll from runway 03. The aircraft accelerated to liftoff speed of 150 kt, clearing the runway threshold in 1,964 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 30 °C and a calm atmosphere, with wind speeds of 0 kt at 179°.
As the aircraft climbed out of Bissau, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 37,509 ft asl after a 41-minute ascent, covering a distance of 290 nm. The climb was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft reaching a maximum altitude of 37,997 ft asl before beginning its enroute level cruise. This phase of the flight lasted 113 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 765 nm. The cruise altitude was maintained at 37,997 ft asl, allowing the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a steady pace.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, reducing its altitude from 37,997 ft asl to 1,523 ft asl in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 173 nm. The final approach to runway 21 at DGAA Kotoka International Airport was executed from the north, with the aircraft aligning itself with the runway at 4 nm and 1,327 ft agl. The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 125 kt and a touchdown rate of -158 fpm. The total landing distance was 864 m, which accounted for 28% of the runway's length. After a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey of 1,235 nm, which had taken 184 minutes and consumed 7,790 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-900 touched down smoothly on runway 21 at DGAA Kotoka International Airport, showcasing exceptional approach quality. The aircraft descended from 1,327 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold, aligning itself with the runway heading of 202.0 degrees. The approach was characterized by a stable and controlled descent, culminating in a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a satisfactory threshold speed of 131 knots, with a corresponding touchdown distance of 347 meters. The touchdown speed of 125 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -158 feet per minute (fpm) indicated a controlled and gentle impact. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline position. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 2 knots, contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The Boeing 737-900 continued to demonstrate excellent control and stability during the rollout phase, maintaining a very good alignment with the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 864 meters, which accounted for only 28% of the runway length, was a testament to the aircraft's efficient and controlled touchdown. Overall, the landing was scored 99.0%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and precision displayed by the crew.
