Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 7 m.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 7 m, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,905 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,905 m of the 3,602 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 781 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 03 at GCRR César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,525 meters, which accounted for 64% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 23°C, a wind speed of 14 knots at 10°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 13 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of GCRR César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northeast of the airport. The climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 94 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,082 feet above sea level to 35,007 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,925 feet. The enroute level cruise then began 29 miles northwest of GMML Hassan I Airport El Aaiún, and it lasted for 105 minutes, covering a distance of 772 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 12 miles north of Pikine, Dakar, Senegal, and it took 23 minutes to descend from an altitude of 34,998 feet above sea level to 1,370 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,628 feet. The descent covered a distance of 111 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 32 at GBYD Banjul International Airport was made from the southeast, with a heading of 311.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 32 at GBYD Banjul International Airport was successful, with a touchdown point 367 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 142 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -222 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31°C, a wind speed of 19 knots at 61°, with a crosswind of 17 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 985 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 159 minutes. The aircraft used 6,456 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at GBYD Banjul International Airport, achieving a score of 90.3%. The final approach to runway 32 was initiated from the south east, heading 311.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 142 knots. The touchdown point was located 367 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 134 knots was a bit faster than desired, and the touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute was considered fair.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots from a direction of 61°. The crosswind component was 17 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,826 meters was 51% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.5 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended path during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 90.3%. However, there were some minor deviations from the desired landing parameters, including a slightly fast touchdown speed and a misaligned runway rollout.
