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 3,509 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 281 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, a Just Flight RJ100 British Airways model, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport. This process took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 23, with a takeoff distance of 1,230 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 143 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 14°C temperature and a wind speed of 18 knots at 319 degrees. The crosswind was 18 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,186 feet above sea level to 27,419 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,233 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 117 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north-west of La Rouquette, France, and lasted for 32 minutes, covering a distance of 235 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 27,443 feet above sea level to 11,837 feet above sea level, a decrease of 15,606 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles. This descent started overhead Cumiana, Italy.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile south of Lu, Italy, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 2 miles north of Frassineto Po, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 11,820 feet above sea level to 4,891 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,929 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting overhead Mede, Italy, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The enroute descent started overhead Isola Sant'Antonio, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 4,929 feet above sea level to 3,965 feet above sea level, a decrease of 963 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile north-east of Ottobiano, Italy, and lasting for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 1 mile east of Trecate, Italy, where the aircraft descended from 3,931 feet above sea level to 1,996 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,935 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35L at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport was from the south, heading 349.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,263 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 35L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 279 meters and a touchdown speed of 101 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -373 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 6°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 159 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,320 meters, which is 38% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 15.8 meters from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, taking 5 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 463 nautical miles, taking 94
The British Airways RJ100 aircraft successfully landed at Milan Malpensa International Airport (LIMC) on runway 35L. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south, heading 349.0° at an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed of 106 knots, registering at 101 knots. This indicates that the pilot managed to control the aircraft's descent and speed effectively, resulting in a good touchdown speed. The touchdown distance of 279 meters was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft to a safe landing position.
However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.8 meters from the centerline, which could have been caused by the pilot's difficulty in maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 159°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. These conditions were favorable for a safe landing, and the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft through these conditions was satisfactory.
Overall, the landing was considered good, with a score of 92.0%. While there were some minor issues with alignment, the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed and descent was effective, resulting in a safe and successful landing.
