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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,984 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 310 m touchdown sits inside 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 09R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport in Paris, France. The takeoff distance was 1,783 meters, which was 50% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 141 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 9°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 190°. There was a slight crosswind of 1 knot, but no headwind. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 55 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,278 feet above sea level to 26,959 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 95 nautical miles. This phase took place 1 mile north of Champillon, France. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Muensbach, Luxembourg. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 97 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 26,996 feet to 4,077 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. This phase took place 1 mile south-west of EMRA Maurice Rose Airfield in Frankfurt, Germany. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 1 mile south-east of Niederdorfelden, Germany. The descent took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,999 feet to 1,668 feet.
The final approach to runway 25L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 250.0° and an altitude of 1,318 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway, which had a length of 3,984 meters. The touchdown point was 219 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 125 knots, which was slightly fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -104 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.9 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 230°. There was a slight crosswind of 1 knot, but a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 914 meters, which was 23% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 272 nautical miles, and the flight took 44 minutes. The aircraft used 2,479 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) on runway 25L, achieving a score of 98.8%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 250.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,318 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach to the runway was precise, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 125 knots, which is within the recommended range for a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 219 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the recommended area. However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots was a bit faster than ideal, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking force to slow down the aircraft. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -104 feet per minute (fpm), which is a good indication of the pilots' ability to control the aircraft's descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.9 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilots' alignment during the final approach. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 230°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more stable.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and precision during the final approach and rollout phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and alignment with the centerline.
