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 1,763 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 240 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 18L at KAUS Austin Bergstrom International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,512 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 163 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 16 knots at 190 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 16 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead 02XS Seidel Ranch Airport Austin, Texas. The climb took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 78 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,533 feet above sea level to 34,120 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,587 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 7 miles north of 6XA0 Circle Ranch Airport Fredericksburg, Texas. This cruise phase lasted for 124 minutes and covered a distance of 820 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 7 miles northwest of KBLH Blythe Airport Blythe, California. The descent took 22 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 34,083 feet above sea level to 10,857 feet above sea level, a decrease of 23,226 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles south of Redlands, California. This cruise phase lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 33 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Glendora, California. The descent took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 28 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 9,999 feet above sea level to 1,754 feet above sea level, a decrease of 8,245 feet.
The final approach to runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 118.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,025 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 08, which had a length of 1,763 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 147 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 237 meters, but the touchdown speed of 147 knots was fast, and the touchdown rate was heavy at -686 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 24 degrees Celsius. The total landing distance was 1,370 meters, which accounted for 78% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 77.1 meters from the centerline. 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 1,085 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 191 minutes. The aircraft used 7,190 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport, with a final approach score of 78.7%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 118.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,025 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 08, which has a length of 1,763 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 147 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected.
The touchdown distance was good, measuring 237 meters, which is within the acceptable range for a Boeing 737-800. However, the touchdown speed of 147 knots was reported as fast, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down with a higher speed than desired. This could have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -686 feet per minute (fpm), which is higher than the typical touchdown rate for a Boeing 737-800.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway as it touched down. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as a temperature of 24°C, which is within the acceptable range for a Boeing 737-800.
The total landing distance was 1,370 meters, which is 78% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 77.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's decision to brake earlier than expected or the aircraft's response to the brakes.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, including the high touchdown speed and heavy touchdown rate, as well as the misaligned runway rollout.
