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.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,752 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 124 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 10 at SCIP Mataveri Airport, located on Isla De Pascua in the Region de Valparaiso, Chile. The takeoff distance was 1,091 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 99°.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead SCIP Mataveri Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an initial altitude of 1,242 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 39,102 feet, an increase of 37,860 feet in 38 minutes, covering a distance of 296 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which lasted for 182 minutes and covered a distance of 1,519 nautical miles. The cruise phase took the aircraft to a latitude of -28.5469427 and a longitude of -104.023143.
As the aircraft began its enroute descent, it started from a latitude of -32.7028285 and a longitude of -74.8892517. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 38,802 feet above sea level to a final altitude of 1,822 feet, a decrease of 36,980 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 169 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 05 at SCVM Viña del Mar Airport was made from the southwest, heading 52.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,362 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 05 at SCVM Viña del Mar Airport was successful, with a runway length of 1,752 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 123 knots. The touchdown distance was 124 meters, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was firm at -319 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.4 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 161°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and there was a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 610 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,991 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 250 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 10,312 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at SCVM Viña del Mar Airport, achieving a high score of 97.6%. The final approach to runway 05 was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 52.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,362 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 123 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 124 meters, and the touchdown speed of 120 knots was also good. However, the touchdown rate was slightly firm at -319 feet per minute, indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
Despite a slight misalignment of 4.4 meters from the centerline, the runway touchdown position was still considered acceptable. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were mild, with a temperature of 17°C and a light wind of 2 knots from a direction of 161°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the tailwind component was even weaker at 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 610 meters was within 35% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to bring it to a stop safely and efficiently.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot demonstrating good control and judgment throughout the approach and rollout phases.
