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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 2,320 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,320 m of the 3,527 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 879 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 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 35 at LPPR Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,354 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 99°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Moreira in the Distrito do Porto, Portugal. The climb took 18 minutes and covered 109 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,168 feet above sea level to 35,654 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,486 feet.
After the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Miranda do Douro in the Distrito de Braganca, Portugal. This phase lasted 96 minutes and covered 661 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Masny in the Hauts-de-France, France. The descent took 29 minutes and covered 137 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 35,124 feet above sea level to 1,278 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,847 feet.
The final approach to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was made from the north, with a heading of 183.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,279 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 18R, which has a length of 3,527 meters. The threshold height at 56 feet above ground level was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 148 knots.
The touchdown point was 465 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 136 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -224 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 100°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 2,241 meters, which is 64% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.0 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 14 minutes and covered 3 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 916 nautical miles, taking 166 minutes, and the aircraft used 5,877 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, with a score of 88.9%. The final approach to runway 18R was initiated from the north, heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,279 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated based on several key parameters.
The threshold height at 56 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating a minor deviation in the aircraft's descent. However, the threshold speed was well above the target at 148 knots, suggesting that the aircraft was descending at a faster rate than intended. This could be attributed to the aircraft's configuration or the pilot's decision to descend more aggressively.
The touchdown point was located 465 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was a little fast, indicating that the aircraft was not fully configured for landing. The touchdown rate of -224 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft was not experiencing excessive deceleration.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline, which could be attributed to the pilot's alignment or the aircraft's directional control. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 100°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 2,241 meters was 64% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.0 meters from the centerline, which could be a concern for future landings.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but with some minor deviations from the intended performance. The pilots' decision-making and the aircraft's configuration played a significant role in the outcome of the landing.
