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.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,901 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,901 m of the 2,209 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 739 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 32 at LIEE Cagliari Elmas Airport in 7 minutes, covering 2 nm on the ground.
During the departure roll the aircraft used 1,779 m of runway, representing 64 % of the available length, and lifted off at 156 kt. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 330°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 6 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced overhead Elmas, rising from 984 ft asl to 32,011 ft asl - a gain of 31,027 ft - in 15 minutes while traversing 94 nm.
The first cruise segment began 32 mi east of Arbatax and lasted 3 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 24 nm at level flight.
Descent 1 started 46 mi east of LIYU Campo di Volo Linnarta Orosei, descending from 31,999 ft asl to 23,985 ft asl - a loss of 8,014 ft - in 7 minutes and covering 44 nm.
A second cruise phase was initiated 63 mi south-west of Fiumicino, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 9 nm.
Descent 2 began 52 mi south-west of Fiumicino, dropping from 23,404 ft asl to 1,607 ft asl - a decrease of 21,796 ft - over 17 minutes and 83 nm.
The final approach to runway 15 at LIRA Ciampino-G. B. Pastine International Airport was flown from the north-west, on a heading of 153.0° at 4 nm and 1,198 ft agl.
Landing on runway 15, whose length is 2,209 m, occurred with a threshold height of 72 ft agl and a threshold speed of 148 kt. Touchdown was recorded 322 m beyond the touchdown zone at 141 kt, with a vertical speed of 40 fpm and a lateral offset of 5.1 m from the centreline. The total landing roll measured 1,820 m, equivalent to 82 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was offset 14.1 m from centreline. Local weather at the time was 25 °C, wind 5 kt from 59°, a 5 kt cross-wind and no head-wind component.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm on the taxiways.
In total the flight covered 263 nm, required 55 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 2,340 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 entered the final approach to runway 15 at LIRA Ciampino-G. B. Pastine International Airport from the north-west on a heading of 153.0° at 4 nm and 1,198 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the aircraft encountered a height of 72 ft agl, which was well above target, and a threshold speed of 148 kt, slightly above target. The flare was executed and the aircraft continued to the touchdown zone.
Touchdown occurred 322 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 141 kt, a little fast, and a vertical rate of 40 fpm, which was perfect. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.1 m from the centreline, and the total landing distance was 1,820 m, representing 82 % of the 2,209 m runway.
During rollout the aircraft remained slightly misaligned, drifting 14.1 m from the centreline. Local weather was 25 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 059°, giving a crosswind component of 5 kt and no headwind.
Coaching should focus on reducing the threshold height and aligning the touchdown point within the designated zone, which will also help bring the touchdown speed closer to target. Adjusting speed and aiming for the correct touchdown zone will improve alignment and reduce runway usage.
