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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,632 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,632 m of the 3,051 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 451 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Beijing Daxing International Airport (ZBAD), the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 11 minutes and covered 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 11L, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 14 °C, with a wind speed of 13 kt at 110°, resulting in a 2 kt crosswind and a 13 kt headwind.
Following a successful departure roll, the aircraft initiated its enroute climb, rising from 1,107 ft above sea level to 38,038 ft in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 144 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude and speed. Notably, the second level cruise phase, which started 10 miles northwest of Pingyi, lasted for 86 minutes and covered 651 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, gradually decreasing its altitude and speed as it approached its destination, Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport (ZSAM).
The final approach to runway 05 at ZSAM was initiated from the southwest, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 52.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,288 ft above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 453 m and a touchdown speed of 131 kt. However, the touchdown speed was slightly above the target, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 1,554 m, accounting for 51% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,037 nautical miles, with a flight time of 168 minutes and a fuel consumption of 6,795 kg.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 05 at ZSAM Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport with a threshold speed of 141 kt, slightly above the target. The approach quality was good, with a well-executed final approach from the south west, heading 52.0° at 4 nm and 1,288 ft above ground level. The threshold height was satisfactory, allowing for a smooth touchdown.
The aircraft made a good touchdown, with a speed of 131 kt, although slightly fast. The touchdown distance of 453 m was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -200 fpm was good, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 19 °C and a wind of 4 kt at 40°, contributed to a relatively calm environment.
The total landing distance of 1,554 m was 51% of the runway length, indicating a reasonable use of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 m from the centreline, similar to the touchdown position. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 96.5%.
