Improve the rollout
See Arrival 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.

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.
Lifted off at 64 kt with 7.2° of pitch.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
The takeoff, point by point
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 1,007 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 2,757 m of runway left; then climbing at 1,150 fpm on average to 1,007 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Plan view the roll down the 3,284 m runway.
Rolled from 222 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 4.5 m at the widest, and lifted off 4.6 m left. Airborne 10 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
The final from 4 nm.
Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 2° band in green.
Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 20 ft below the slope.
Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber.
Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 21× larger than distances along the final.
Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 0.3 nm, then 18 m left of it from 0.3 nm to the threshold.
Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.
Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 78 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 48 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Inside the speed band all the way, between −1 kt and +9 kt on the approach speed of 80 kt.
Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.
Over the threshold
Touchdown
Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.
The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.
From 66 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 19 s, an average deceleration of 0.11 g.
Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 34 ft, 16 ft below the 50 ft target. Touched down 415 m in, 110 m past the ideal 305 m.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 410 fpm at 36 ft to 100 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 3.9° on the way down.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,298 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 16 m left of the centreline, and stayed about there down the rollout, 16 m left at the widest.
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended.
The 415 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 1.14 G arrival bounced.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a 30-minute taxiing period from the parking area to the runway at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 35, with a takeoff distance of 152 meters, which accounted for 5% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 64 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 0°C temperature and a wind of 15 knots at 350 degrees. The crosswind was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind was 15 knots. The enroute climb started overhead the airport, where the aircraft ascended from 984 feet above sea level to 9,239 feet, an increase of 8,254 feet in just 9 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 6 miles northeast of Corat, lasting 21 minutes and covering 98 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 9 miles northeast of UBBO Kyzylagadzh Air Base Boradigah, where it descended from 8,974 feet to 2,116 feet, a decrease of 6,858 feet in 9 minutes, covering 23 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed overhead UBBL Lankaran International Airport Lankaran, lasting just 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 2 miles southeast of Lankaran, where it descended from 1,950 feet to 1,459 feet, a decrease of 490 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 5 miles southeast of Lankaran, lasting 5 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33 at UB10 Lenkoran was made from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 331.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,281 feet above ground level. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,298 meters, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was also good at 79 knots, while the touchdown distance was 414 meters. The touchdown speed was 68 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -105 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 16.3 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.8 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 910 meters, accounting for 28% of the runway. The total flight distance was 150 nautical miles, taking 53 minutes, and the aircraft used 57 kilograms of fuel.
