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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,868 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,868 m of the 3,273 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 756 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 24 at RPLL Ninoy Aquino International Airport in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24, the Airbus A330-900 accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,435 m, representing 40 % of the runway, and lifted off at 166 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 32 °C with wind from 260° at 7 kt; the cross-component was 2 kt and the headwind component 7 kt.
The initial climb began overhead RPLL, climbing from 1,018 ft asl to 35,999 ft asl - an increase of 34,981 ft - in 26 minutes while traversing 181 nm.
The first cruise segment commenced 14 mi south-west of CUJ Culion Airport and lasted 8 minutes, during which 69 nm were covered.
A subsequent climb started 33 mi west of RP71 El Nido, rising from 36,193 ft asl to 36,971 ft asl - a gain of 778 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 13 nm.
The next cruise phase originated 46 mi north-west of San Vicente, continued for 32 minutes and spanned 265 nm.
A further climb was initiated 86 mi north-east of LAC Layang-Layang Airport, increasing altitude from 37,005 ft asl to 37,806 ft asl - a rise of 801 ft - in 2 minutes over 13 nm.
The following cruise segment began 72 mi north-east of LAC Layang-Layang Airport, lasted 77 minutes and covered 657 nm.
Descent 1 started 87 mi south of WIDL Letung Airport, descending from 37,990 ft asl to 5,078 ft asl - a loss of 32,912 ft - in 20 minutes while traveling 119 nm.
Cruise 2 was conducted 11 mi east of WSAC Changi Air Base (East), lasting 2 minutes and encompassing 6 nm.
Descent 2 began 13 mi north-east of WSAC Changi Air Base (East), dropping from 4,594 ft asl to 2,503 ft asl - a decrease of 2,091 ft - in 3 minutes and covering 10 nm.
Cruise 3 originated 11 mi north of WSSS Singapore Changi Airport, persisted for 3 minutes and spanned 7 nm.
The final approach to runway 20R at WSSS Singapore Changi Airport was flown from the north on a heading of 203.0°, at 4 nm and 1,293 ft agl.
A go-around was executed on runway 20R at an altitude of 255 ft agl.
Landing on runway 20R, whose length is 3,273 m, occurred with a threshold height of 80 ft agl that was significantly above target and a threshold speed of 142 kt. Touchdown was recorded 288 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 133 kt and a vertical rate of minus 253 fpm; the touchdown point was misaligned by 12.8 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 32 °C, wind from 145° at 3 kt, with a 3 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind. The total landing distance measured 1,735 m, representing 53 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was noted to be misaligned by 26.0 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 9 minutes, covering 2 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,423 nm, took 215, and consumed 18,291 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A330-900 entered the final approach to runway 20R at Singapore Changi Airport from the north on a heading of 203.0° at 4 nm and 1,293 ft agl. Local weather was 32 °C with wind 3 kt at 145°, a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits.
During the threshold and flare the aircraft encountered a threshold height of 80 ft agl, which was significantly above target, while the threshold speed of 142 kt was judged good. The touchdown point was 288 m beyond the touchdown zone and the touchdown speed of 133 kt was good; the touchdown rate was fair at minus 253 fpm. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.8 m from the centreline.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft landing 288 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, maintaining a speed of 133 kt and a descent rate of minus 253 fpm, and the touchdown point remained 12.8 m off the centreline.
Rollout continued with a total landing distance of 1,735 m, representing 53 % of the 3,273 m runway, but the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 26.0 m from the centreline.
Minor refinements should focus on achieving the intended threshold height and improving centreline alignment at touchdown and during rollout, as these were the largest deviations despite an overall score of 81.4 %. Reducing the lateral offset will help keep the rollout within tighter alignment tolerances.
