A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,527 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 498 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, the Boeing 737-600 began its journey on runway 19R, taking off with a liftoff speed of 140 kt after a 1,756 m roll, which covered 49% of the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2 °C, with a gentle headwind of 4 kt at 180 °.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it traversed a significant vertical distance of 36,372 ft in 27 minutes, covering 178 nm. The enroute climb phase started overhead the airport, and the aircraft leveled off at 37,991 ft asl. The crew then initiated a series of level cruises, with the first lasting 29 minutes and covering 190 nm, north-west of Pandrup, Denmark. The aircraft then began its descent, reducing its altitude from 37,688 ft asl to 8,252 ft asl in 20 minutes, covering 109 nm. The crew continued to execute a series of level cruises and descents, eventually beginning the final approach to runway 18R at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.
The Boeing 737-600 touched down on the runway with a touchdown speed of 119 kt, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 125 kt. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -134 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 954 m, which accounted for 27% of the runway length. Following a quick taxiing period of less than 1 minute, the aircraft came to a stop, having completed a total flight distance of 527 nm and consuming 3,856 kg of fuel in the process. The flight duration was 92 minutes.
The Boeing 737-600 touched down on runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol with a smooth touchdown rate of -134 fpm, slightly above the ideal rate. The aircraft's speed at touchdown was 119 kt, which was a little fast, but still within acceptable limits. The threshold speed was well-managed at 125 kt, demonstrating good control and precision during the approach.
The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a very good runway touchdown alignment. The aircraft was aligned perfectly with the centreline, showcasing the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The landing distance of 954 m, which accounted for 27% of the runway length, was also within acceptable limits. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10 °C and a gentle wind of 6 kt from 279 °, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The rollout phase was flawless, with the aircraft maintaining perfect alignment with the centreline. The overall performance of the landing was impressive, with a score of 99.9%. The slight deviation of 74 m beyond the touchdown zone was the only minor issue, but it did not affect the overall quality of the landing. The pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and alignment during the approach and rollout phases was commendable, resulting in a safe and efficient landing.
