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.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,547 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,547 m of the 2,483 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 386 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 less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a CRJ900, then departed from runway 18 at UUYY Syktyvkar Airport in Syktyvkar, Russia. The takeoff distance was 1,928 meters, which accounted for 77% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 177 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 32°C and wind blowing at 5 knots from 210 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 5 knots. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile south of UUYY Syktyvkar Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,274 feet above sea level to 35,316 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,042 feet in 22 minutes, covering 140 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 57 miles south of Troitsko-Pechorsk, Russia, and lasted 51 minutes, covering 92 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 69 miles northwest of Ivdel', Russia, and descended from 35,356 feet above sea level to 3,375 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,981 feet in 23 minutes, covering 130 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 6 miles southeast of Yugorsk, Russia, and lasted 3 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles.
The final enroute descent started 8 miles southeast of USHS Sovetskiy Airport in Sovetskiy, Russia, and descended from 2,965 feet above sea level to 1,370 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,595 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 30 at USHS Sovetskiy Airport from the southeast, heading 336.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,021 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 30 at USHS Sovetskiy Airport was successful, with a runway length of 2,483 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was 145 knots. The touchdown distance was 389 meters, and the touchdown speed was 132 knots, both of which were good. However, the touchdown rate was very hard at -513 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 18.6 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions during landing were a temperature of 24°C and wind blowing at 5 knots from 287 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,468 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 18.2 meters from the centreline. After landing, the aircraft took 2 minutes to taxi to the parking from the runway, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 382 nautical miles, and the flight took 70 minutes. The aircraft used 964 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The CRJ900 aircraft successfully landed at USHS Sovetskiy Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.9%. The final approach to runway 30 was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 336.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,021 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed with good threshold height and speed, reaching 145 knots at the threshold. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 389 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 132 knots was slightly lower than the expected threshold speed, indicating a possible slight delay in the touchdown.
One notable issue with the landing was the very hard touchdown rate of -513 feet per minute, which may have caused some discomfort for the passengers. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 18.6 meters from the centerline, which could have resulted in a bumpy ride for the passengers.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a gentle wind of 5 knots from 287°. The crosswind was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind was 4 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,468 meters was 59% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 18.2 meters from the centerline, which may have required some additional control from the pilots to maintain a stable alignment.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the touchdown rate and runway alignment.
