Improve the rollout

Arrival 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.

Landing Summary

Overall, this aircraft landing can be considered successful with some minor areas for improvement.

During the Approach Phase, the glideslope alignment and heading alignment were both excellent which indicates that the pilot was able to maintain the correct trajectory towards the runway. However, the speed was slightly above the target which could potentially lead to a harder landing than desired.

In the Landing Phase, the threshold height was good and the landing flare was excellent which likely resulted in a smooth touchdown. The touchdown rate was good, indicating that the aircraft landed smoothly, but the speed was above target which could potentially impact the landing quality.

During the Touchdown Phase, it is noted that the touchdown distance was inside the touchdown zone, which is a positive indication of the pilot's ability to accurately land the aircraft. The runway touchdown position was very good, further confirming the pilot's skill in landing the aircraft.

In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off at 7.3 meters from the centerline, which is an area for improvement as a more precise alignment is desired.

Overall, this aircraft landing was successful with positive points such as excellent glideslope alignment, good threshold height, and excellent landing flare. The areas for improvement include maintaining the target speed throughout the approach, ensuring accurate runway alignment during the rollout phase, and potentially reducing the touchdown speed to achieve a smoother landing.
