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 2,187 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 2,187 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 472 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 area to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 04 at RPVM Mactan Cebu International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,367 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 34 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at an angle of 89 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of RPVM Mactan Cebu International Airport, Lapu-Lapu City, in the Central Visayas region of the Philippines. The climb started from an altitude of 1,082 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 16,423 feet above sea level, an increase of 15,341 feet in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 30 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began 9 miles east of Toboso in the Western Visayas region of the Philippines and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 32 nautical miles. The descent phase started 8 miles southeast of Igbon in the Western Visayas region and lasted for 13 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 16,514 feet above sea level to 1,373 feet above sea level, a decrease of 15,142 feet. This phase covered a distance of 61 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at RPVK Kalibo International Airport was made from the northeast, heading 229.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,329 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 23, which had a length of 2,187 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 132 knots. The touchdown point was 57 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 125 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -170 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots at an angle of 23 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 2,110 meters, which accounted for 97% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The total flight distance was 133 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 42 minutes. The aircraft used 1,735 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RPVK Kalibo International Airport, achieving a score of 90.1%. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 229.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,329 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 132 knots, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal landing conditions. The touchdown point was located 57 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 125 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -170 feet per minute was also satisfactory. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing process.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 30°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 23°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing process.
The total landing distance of 2,110 meters was 97% of the available runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for safe deceleration. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a satisfactory score of 90.1%. However, there were minor deviations from the ideal landing conditions, including a slightly below-target threshold speed and a touchdown point located beyond the designated touchdown zone.
