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.
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 2,165 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,165 m of the 2,512 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 798 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 03 at Eindhoven Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,736 meters, which accounted for 69% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 164 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 349 degrees. The crosswind and headwind were both 5 knots, which presented a moderate challenge for the pilots. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of Batadorp, a location in the province of Noord-Brabant, The Netherlands. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,079 feet above sea level to 1,986 feet, an increase of 907 feet in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
After the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This phase began 1 mile northeast of Batadorp. The final approach to runway 03 at Eindhoven Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 35.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 03 was successful, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -117 feet per minute. However, the touchdown point was 381 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions during the landing were a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 6 knots at 350 degrees, with a crosswind and headwind of 4 knots each.
The total landing distance was 2,082 meters, which accounted for 83% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots had successfully controlled the aircraft during the landing phase. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 20 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 26 minutes. The aircraft used 848 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Eindhoven Airport, achieving a score of 89.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 35.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, maintaining a good threshold height and speed of 139 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 381 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 120 knots. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -117 feet per minute (fpm). However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, deviating 7.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from a direction of 350°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 4 knots, indicating a relatively calm atmosphere. The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 2,082 meters, which accounted for 83% of the runway length.
Despite the minor misalignment, the runway rollout alignment was deemed very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft executing a smooth and controlled touchdown.
