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 1,781 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,781 m of the 3,371 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 785 m past the threshold — beyond 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 less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 01 at KJAC Jackson Hole Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,521 meters, which accounted for 79% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 158 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of -14 °C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 9 °.
As the aircraft climbed, it started 2 miles north of KJAC Jackson Hole Airport and reached an altitude of 33,771 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,270 feet from the initial altitude of 7,501 feet. This climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 90 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which began 2 miles northwest of Arimo, Idaho, and lasted for 64 minutes, covering a distance of 478 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 4 miles west of Plumas Lake, California, and took 25 minutes to descend from 33,863 feet to 1,198 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,666 feet. This descent covered a distance of 91 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 28L at KSFO San Francisco International Airport was made from the southeast, with a heading of 298.0 ° at 4 nautical miles and 1,173 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 28L was successful, with a touchdown point 375 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 135 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was -185 feet per minute, indicating a smooth landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14 °C.
The total landing distance was 1,706 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 667 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 115 minutes. The aircraft used 4,984 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28L, achieving a high score of 92.6%. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 298.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,173 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach and landing performance were satisfactory, with a good threshold height and speed of 141 knots. The touchdown point was located 375 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 135 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -185 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the aircraft's performance. The runway length of 3,371 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 1,706 meters, which represented 51% of the available runway length.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 737-800 aircraft at KSFO was satisfactory, with a high score and good performance metrics. The aircraft's approach and landing were characterized by good speed and rate control, and the touchdown and rollout phases were executed smoothly and safely.
