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 5,310 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,310 ft of the 9,954 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,745 ft 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 area 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 01R at Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS) in Las Vegas, Nevada. The takeoff distance was 5,498 feet, which was 65% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it passed overhead Paradise, Nevada, and continued to ascend to 37,920 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 136 nautical miles and took 20 minutes, with an increase in altitude of 34,686 feet. The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 2 miles southwest of the Sun Valley Estates Airport (UT28) in Lund, Utah. This cruise phase lasted for 126 minutes and covered a distance of 251 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 6 miles west of Jackpot, Nevada, and involved a descent from 37,351 feet to 4,161 feet above sea level. This phase took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 107 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 28R at the Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field (KBOI) in Boise, Idaho. The approach was made from the southeast, with a heading of 295.0 degrees, and the aircraft was at an altitude of 1,320 feet above ground level (agl) and 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing was made on runway 28R, which was 9,954 feet long. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 143 knots. The touchdown point was 390 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 137 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -303 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 43 degrees Fahrenheit, with a wind of 2 knots from 300 degrees. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 5,055 feet, which was 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 25 feet from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 502 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 88 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,258 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KBOI Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field, with a final approach score of 95.0%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southeast, heading 295.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,320 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 28R, which has a length of 9,954 feet. The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 143 kt. The touchdown point was located 390 feet beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the aircraft landed slightly short of the intended touchdown area. The touchdown speed of 137 kt was also a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -303 fpm was firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 43°F and a wind speed of 2 kt from 300°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 kt, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
However, the total landing distance of 5,055 feet was 51% of the runway length, which is slightly above the average landing distance. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 25 feet from the centerline, indicating that the aircraft may have drifted slightly off course during the rollout phase. Despite these minor issues, the overall landing was considered successful, with a high score of 95.0%.
