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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,194 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 245 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 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 17 at HUEN Entebbe International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,177 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 3 knots at 139 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Entebbe International Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile south of the airport. The climb took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 99 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 4,743 feet above sea level to 36,938 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,195 feet. The enroute level cruise started 13 miles north of HKHA Rusinga Airport in Homa Bay, Kenya, and lasted for 70 minutes, covering a distance of 561 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 45 miles east of HCDU Dujuuma Airport in Somalia and took 22 minutes to complete, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 36,853 feet above sea level to 1,351 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,502 feet. The descent covered a distance of 121 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 05 at HCMM Aden Adde International Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 51.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,322 feet above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 05 at HCMM Aden Adde International Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 246 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -284 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.0 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 7 knots at 80 degrees, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,309 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 789 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 115 minutes. The aircraft used 13,339 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at HCMM Aden Adde International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.5%. The final approach to runway 05 was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 51.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,322 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 129 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 130 knots. The touchdown distance of 246 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -284 feet per minute was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a slightly more stable rate of descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.0 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled path after touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 80°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the touchdown position.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a good touchdown speed and distance, and a very good runway rollout alignment. However, the slight misalignment of the touchdown position and the fair touchdown rate suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement in future landings.
