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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,202 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 289 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, FBW AIR TRANSAT C-GCKU, then departed from runway 08 at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport in Stockholm, Sweden. The takeoff distance was 1,443 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -2°C, with a wind speed of 11 knots at a direction of 69°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles east of ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport. The climb took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 144 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,142 feet above sea level to 34,081 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Mariannelund in Joenkoeping County, Sweden. This phase lasted for 78 minutes and covered a distance of 1,138 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 8 miles north of LGSK Skiathos Island National Airport in Skiathos, Greece. The descent took 25 minutes and covered a distance of 83 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 35,646 feet to 1,576 feet.
The final approach to runway 21R at LGAV Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport was made from the north-east, with a heading of 217.0° at an altitude of 1,289 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 21R, which had a length of 3,202 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 290 meters, and the touchdown speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -281 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.3 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots at a direction of 230°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,215 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 15 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,373 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 138 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 7,648 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, FBW AIR TRANSAT C-GCKU, successfully landed on runway 21R at LGAV Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport with a score of 97.5%. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 217.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,289 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach and landing were executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 134 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 290 meters and a touchdown speed of 134 knots, which were both within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate was slightly below average at -281 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a slightly longer deceleration period. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the approach path.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach and landing phases. The total landing distance of 1,215 meters was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was excellent, with the aircraft maintaining a straight course throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with only minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters.
