Improve the takeoff
The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,780 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 38 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 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-900, then departed from runway 03 at WSSL Seletar Airport, a small airport located in Seletar, Johor, Malaysia. The takeoff distance was 1,673 meters, which is 91% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 165 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 299 degrees.
After takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile north-east of WSSL Seletar Airport. The climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 115 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,020 feet above sea level to 23,013 feet above sea level, an increase of 21,993 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 69 miles east of WIDN Raja Haji Fisabilillah International Airport, located in Tanjung Pinang-Bintan Island, Indonesia. This cruise phase lasted 11 minutes and covered a distance of 94 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, which started at a location defined by latitude 0.3610706 and longitude 107.2128213. This climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 149 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 25,386 feet above sea level to 34,856 feet above sea level, an increase of 9,470 feet. The enroute level cruise then started 15 miles east of WIOO Supadio Airport, located in Pontianak, Indonesia. This cruise phase lasted 225 minutes and covered a distance of 1,693 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 6 miles north of WABP Mozes Kilangin Airport, located in Timika, Indonesia. The descent took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 70 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 34,959 feet above sea level to 7,679 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,280 feet. The aircraft then began a short enroute level cruise, which started 1 mile north-east of WAWY Piramid Airstrip, located in Wurigelebur, Indonesia. This cruise phase lasted 5 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 15 at WAJW Wamena was made from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 156.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,002 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was made on runway 15, which has a length of 1,780 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 136 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 37 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -381 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 290 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both zero. The total landing distance was 1,043 meters, which is 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 1 minute
The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at WAJW Wamena, achieving a score of 97.5%. The final approach to runway 15 was conducted from the north-west, with a heading of 156.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,002 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a threshold speed of 136 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed was slightly fast, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown distance of 37 meters was also considered good.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.5 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 290°. This resulted in a zero crosswind and headwind component, making the landing conditions ideal.
The total landing distance of 1,043 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to bring the aircraft to a stop in a straight line.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters, such as the slightly fast touchdown speed and the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position.
