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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 5,994 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,790 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 to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 12 at KOAK San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport. The takeoff distance was 4,641 feet, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 155 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 66°F and winds of 3 knots at 200°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile south of KOAK, where the aircraft climbed from 1,027 feet above sea level to 39,490 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,463 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 119 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 10 miles northeast of 90CL Diamond M Ranch Airport Elk Creek. This cruise lasted 19 minutes and covered 147 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 6 miles south of Talent, Oregon, where it descended from 39,658 feet above sea level to 4,647 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,011 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile west of Eugene, Oregon, which lasted 8 minutes and covered 25 nautical miles. The descent continued, starting 1 mile northwest of 49BR DOCILF Brownsville, where it descended from 4,568 feet above sea level to 2,024 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,544 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile north of OG16 Jim's Airstrip Halsey, which lasted 5 minutes and covered 13 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 16L at KEUG Mahlon Sweet Field was made from the north, heading 179.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,256 feet above ground level.
The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 418 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 123 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -293 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 68°F and winds of 3 knots at 119°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 3,959 feet, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 435 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 92 minutes, using 7,456 pounds of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at KEUG Mahlon Sweet Field, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft's final approach to runway 16L was initiated from the north, with a heading of 179.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot's performance during the final approach was impressive, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed of 131 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed approach. Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 123 knots, which was also considered good. However, the touchdown rate of -293 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have made some adjustments to achieve a smoother touchdown.
Despite the slightly higher-than-ideal touchdown rate, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 68°F and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 119°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the headwind component was even weaker at 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 3,959 feet was 66% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot had made effective use of the available runway length and had maintained a high level of control throughout the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled descent throughout the landing.
Overall, the Boeing 737-700 aircraft's landing at KEUG Mahlon Sweet Field was a success, with a high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot. The aircraft's performance during the final approach and landing was impressive, and the pilot's ability to maintain a stable and controlled descent throughout the landing was evident.
