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.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
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.
Touched down 532 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 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 35R at LTFM İstanbul Airport, with a takeoff distance of 2,028 meters, which was 50% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 120 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of LTFM İstanbul Airport Arnavutköy, and climbed from an altitude of 1,364 feet above sea level to 38,620 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,256 feet, in 23 minutes and covering a distance of 150 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 9 miles south of Antonovo, Oblast Targovishte, Bulgaria, and lasted for 76 minutes, covering a distance of 618 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time overhead Chrastany, Jihocesky kraj, Czech Republic, and climbed from 38,640 feet above sea level to 39,984 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,344 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile southeast of Smetanova Lhota, Jihocesky kraj, Czech Republic, and lasted for 11 minutes, covering a distance of 82 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile north of Luby, Karlovarsky kraj, Czech Republic, and descended from 40,332 feet above sea level to 39,706 feet above sea level, a decrease of 626 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile northeast of Bosenbrunn, Saxony, Germany, and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 172 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles southeast of Beelen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany, and descended from 40,409 feet above sea level to 1,262 feet above sea level, a decrease of 39,146 feet, in 31 minutes and covering a distance of 131 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was made from the north, heading 183.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,261 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 18R, which had a length of 3,527 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 135 knots.
The touchdown point was 117 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -241 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.7 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 160 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The total landing distance was 1,397 meters, which was 40% of the runway length.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 1,189 nautical
The aircraft in question is an Airbus A330, which successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on runway 18R. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 135 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 117 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots. This speed was within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed landing. However, the touchdown rate of -241 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 160°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 10 knots, which the aircraft successfully managed. The total landing distance of 1,397 meters was 40% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
Despite the overall success of the landing, there was a slight misalignment of the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft deviating from the centerline by 8.7 meters. This minor deviation suggests that the pilot may have had some difficulty in maintaining a perfectly aligned course during the rollout phase. Nevertheless, the landing was deemed successful, with a score of 95.3%.
