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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,537 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 326 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 23, with the aircraft taking off after covering 49% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,533 meters, and the liftoff speed was 158 knots.
As the aircraft climbed into the air, it encountered local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and winds of 11 knots at 239 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 10 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of the airport and took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,199 feet above sea level to 34,942 feet, an increase of 33,744 feet in 20 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 125 nautical miles.
After reaching cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 45 minutes and covered a distance of 348 nautical miles. The cruise phase took place overhead Orkoien, Spain. Following the cruise, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 47 miles southeast of La Union, Spain. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 34,660 feet to 1,581 feet, a decrease of 33,079 feet in 22 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25R at DAOO Oran Es-Sénia International Airport took place from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 247.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,273 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,537 meters, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was also good at 138 knots, while the touchdown distance was 327 meters. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 133 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -322 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 15°C temperature and winds of 6 knots at 200 degrees, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,369 meters, which was 39% of the runway's length.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 573 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 1 hour and 2 minutes. The aircraft used 3,847 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 has successfully landed at DAOO Oran Es-Sénia (Ahmed Ben Bella) International Airport, achieving a score of 97.8%. The landing was executed from a northeasterly direction, heading 247.0° at a distance of 4 nm and an altitude of 1,273 ft above ground level (agl).
Upon final approach to runway 25R, the aircraft maintained good control, with a threshold height that met the required standards. The threshold speed was also within the acceptable range at 138 kt, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown distance was within the desired limits at 327 m, showcasing the pilot's ability to accurately gauge the aircraft's speed and altitude.
However, there was a minor discrepancy in the touchdown speed, which was slightly higher than the recommended 133 kt. This may have resulted in a firm touchdown rate of -322 fpm, which could have put additional stress on the aircraft. Despite this, the landing was still considered firm but not excessively so.
The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.2 m from the centreline, which may have caused some minor issues during the landing roll. Nevertheless, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and wind speeds of 6 kt at 200°. The crosswind component was 5 kt, while the headwind component was 4 kt, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment.
The total landing distance of 1,369 m was within 39% of the runway length, indicating a controlled and stable landing. The runway rollout alignment was exceptional, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment throughout the rollout phase. This demonstrates the pilot's skill and attention to detail in executing a safe and controlled landing.
