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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,782 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 430 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 05L at RODN Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan. The takeoff distance was 1,100 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 90 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 2 knots. After departing from Kadena Air Base, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airbase. The climb took 37 minutes and covered a distance of 309 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,171 feet above sea level to 39,183 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,011 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 10 miles east of RJFG New Tanegashima Airport in Tanegashima, Japan. This phase lasted for 71 minutes and covered a distance of 918 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 7 miles west of RJTI Tokyo Heliport Edogawa in Hokkaido, Japan. The descent took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 106 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 39,051 feet above sea level to 1,990 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,061 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 10 miles southwest of Wakkanai in Hokkaido, Japan. This phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 25 at RJER Rishiri Airport, which was located to the north-east. The aircraft was heading at 237.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,249 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft landed on runway 25 at RJER Rishiri Airport, which had a length of 1,782 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 429 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 130 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -168 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 263 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 856 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,348 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 132 minutes. The aircraft used 7,618 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RJER Rishiri Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north-east, heading 237.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,249 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach to runway 25 was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a good alignment with the runway. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was slightly above the target speed, but the touchdown distance of 429 meters was well within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -168 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 263°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which the aircraft successfully managed during the landing. The runway length of 1,782 meters was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which was 856 meters, or 48% of the runway length.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway at the moment of touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also excellent, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, resulting in a score of 99.0%.
