Maintain the centreline
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.

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 1,774 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,774 m of the 2,944 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 609 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 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 19 at Keflavik International Airport (BIKF) in Iceland. The takeoff distance was 876 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 200 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles south of the airport and reaching an altitude of 5,666 feet above sea level (asl) after climbing 4,595 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted 2 minutes and covered 8 nautical miles. This phase started 4 miles northeast of Grindavik, Iceland. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 5,717 feet asl to 35,912 feet asl, an increase of 30,196 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 124 nautical miles. This climb started 10 miles east of Grindavik.
The aircraft then entered a prolonged level cruise phase, lasting 84 minutes and covering 707 nautical miles. This phase started 14 miles northwest of Hoefn Airport (BISL) in Iceland. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 8 miles east of Flam, Norway, and descending from 34,977 feet asl to 9,742 feet asl, a decrease of 25,235 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles.
After the initial descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, lasting 7 minutes and covering 24 nautical miles. This phase started 12 miles northeast of Hallingby, Norway. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles north of Skreia, Norway, and descending from 9,416 feet asl to 2,504 feet asl, a decrease of 6,912 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19L at Oslo Airport, Gardermoen (ENGM) was made from the north, heading 201.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,793 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was made on runway 19L, which had a length of 2,944 meters. The threshold height at 65 feet agl was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 136 knots.
The touchdown point was 195 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 140 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -166 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.8 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 14 knots at 220 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,696 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.5 meters from the centreline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 996 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 143 minutes. The aircraft used 4,
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a score of 87.4%. The final approach to runway 19L was initiated from the north, heading 201.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,793 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was conducted in a northerly direction, aligning with the runway's orientation.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 195 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed during the approach. The touchdown rate of -166 feet per minute (fpm) was within the acceptable range, demonstrating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 220°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 13 knots, which the pilot successfully managed during the landing. The runway threshold height was above the target, but the threshold speed was satisfactory at 136 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,696 meters was 58% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off by 12.5 meters. These minor deviations suggest that the pilot may have experienced some difficulty in maintaining a perfectly aligned approach and touchdown.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach and touchdown, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
