Flight Score
Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 7.4 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,671 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,671 m of the 3,093 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 517 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 25 at RKPC Jeju International Airport in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 25, the takeoff run measured 1,309 m, representing 41 % of the runway length, and the aircraft lifted off at 152 kt. Ambient conditions were 33 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 300°, including a 4 kt crosswind component and a 2 kt headwind.
Climb commenced 1 mile southwest of RKPC Jeju International Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,030 ft asl to 38,635 ft asl-a gain of 37,604 ft-over 32 minutes while covering 237 nm.
The first cruise segment began 30 miles east of RKTH Pohang Airport and continued for 334 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 2,830 nm at level altitude.
Descent was initiated 31 miles north of AK23 Driftwood Bay Air Force Station, with the aircraft descending from 39,001 ft asl to 1,799 ft asl, a loss of 37,202 ft, in 20 minutes while traversing 148 nm.
A brief cruise followed 5 miles west of Z87 Blinn Lake Seaplane Base, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm before the final approach.
The final approach to runway 15 at PACD Cold Bay Airport was executed from the north, on a heading of 155.0° at 3 nm and 1,191 ft agl.
Landing on runway 15 was achieved with a threshold speed of 127 kt; the touchdown point occurred 109 m beyond the touchdown zone, the aircraft touched down at 114 kt, and the vertical speed was minus 164 fpm. Weather at the time was 9 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 260°, including a 7 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind.
The total landing distance recorded was 1,599 m, equivalent to 51 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was reported as very good.
After rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In summary, the flight covered a total of 3,228 nm, took 396 (units as provided), and consumed 16,498 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800, scored 97.9 %, made a final approach to runway 15 at PACD Cold Bay Airport from the north, tracking a heading of 155.0 ° at 3 nm and 1,191 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was temperature 9 °C, wind 7 kt from 260 °, with a 7 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt tailwind component.
During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft had a good threshold height and a threshold speed slightly above target at 127 kt. The touchdown point was 109 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the aircraft achieved a touchdown speed of 114 kt, which was recorded as good. Touchdown rate was minus 164 fpm, also rated good, and runway touchdown alignment was very good.
At touchdown the aircraft contacted the runway 109 m beyond the designated zone, maintained a speed of 114 kt and a vertical rate of minus 164 fpm, with alignment described as very good. These parameters confirmed a controlled and precise touchdown.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,599 m, representing 51 % of the 3,108 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
Coaching should focus on reducing the threshold speed to the target value and aiming to touch down within the touchdown zone to further optimise landing performance.
