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 that landed joined below the 1,000 ft and 500 ft gates, after a go-around. The gate assessed on the earlier approach is not shown - it was not the landing's.
Side view — the last 1,540 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,540 m of the 3,048 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 706 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 15L at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, a movement that lasted 10 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 15L, the Boeing 777-300ER accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,624 m, representing 44 % of the runway, and lifted off at 156 kt. Local weather at the time was 30 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 259°, a crosswind component of 3 kt and a tailwind component of 1 kt.
The initial climb began 1 mile south of KIAH, climbing from 1,075 ft asl to 4,998 ft asl, an increase of 3,923 ft achieved in 2 minutes while covering 9 nm.
A brief level cruise commenced 5 miles west of Aldine, Texas, lasting 2 minutes and extending over 7 nm.
The next climb segment started 1 mile north-west of TX18 Redmond Taylor Army Heliport, Dallas, rising from 4,999 ft asl to 35,962 ft asl, an increase of 30,963 ft in 12 minutes and covering 79 nm.
A prolonged cruise phase began 2 miles west of 9TE7 Flying G H Ranch Airport, Paige, lasting 156 minutes and spanning 1,158 nm.
Descent commenced 13 miles north-east of 3Q0 Mina Airport, Nevada, descending from 36,008 ft asl to 7,466 ft asl, a loss of 28,542 ft in 22 minutes while covering 123 nm.
A short cruise segment followed 4 miles south-west of NV47 Palomino Airport, Sparks, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nm.
The subsequent descent began 2 miles north-east of NV17 Youngberg Ranch Airport, Lemmon Valley, dropping from 7,403 ft asl to 5,763 ft asl, a decrease of 1,640 ft in 2 minutes over 7 nm.
Final approach to runway 17R at KRNO Reno-Tahoe International Airport was executed from the north, on a heading of 180.0°, at 4 nm and 1,333 ft agl.
A go-around was initiated on runway 17R at KRNO when the aircraft reached 6 ft agl, prompting a climb back to a missed-approach altitude before a subsequent approach.
Landing on runway 17R at KRNO was performed on a runway 3,048 m long; the threshold speed was recorded at 145 kt. Touchdown occurred 172 m down the runway at 143 kt with a touchdown rate of minus 201 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 20.9 m from the centreline. Local conditions were 13 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 232°, a crosswind component of 5 kt and a headwind component of 4 kt. Total landing distance measured 1,051 m, representing 34 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was off by 27.6 m from the centreline.
In total, the flight covered 1,398 nm, required 209 minutes, and consumed 23,799 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300ER on final approach to runway 17R at KRNO Reno-Tahoe International Airport was aligned on a heading of 180.0° from the north, 4 nm out and 1,333 ft agl; the approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high, with temperature 13 °C, wind 6 kt from 232°, a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 145 kt; the aircraft crossed the threshold and the flare produced a touchdown distance that was good at 172 m, a touchdown speed of 143 kt that was a little fast, and a touchdown rate that was fair at minus 201 fpm.
The touchdown point was significantly misaligned, being 20.9 m off the centreline.
The total landing distance was 1,051 m, representing 34 % of the 3,048 m runway, and the rollout remained misaligned by 27.6 m from the centreline.
To improve the 71.0 % score, concentrate on achieving a stabilized approach with a reduced sink rate before the 1,000 ft gate and on maintaining centreline alignment through flare and rollout.
