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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,303 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 177 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 24R at LEPA Palma de Mallorca Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,736 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at an angle of 80 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of the airport and rising from an altitude of 1,050 feet above sea level to 36,447 feet, an increase of 35,397 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 111 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 15 miles east of Javea, Spain, and lasted for 31 minutes, covering a distance of 230 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Agron, Spain, and descending from 36,462 feet to 1,363 feet, a decrease of 35,100 feet in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 112 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 02 at LEJR Jerez Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 21.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 02, which had a length of 2,303 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 133 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 178 meters, but the touchdown speed of 129 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate was good at -199 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots at an angle of 110 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,214 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the taxiing to the parking area from the runway took only 3 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 461 nautical miles, taking 89 minutes, and used 3,119 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at LEJR Jerez Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 21.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was within the acceptable range at 133 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 129 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to the pilot's decision to flare the aircraft slightly earlier than necessary. Despite this, the touchdown rate of -199 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The aircraft landed on runway 02, which has a length of 2,303 meters. The touchdown distance of 178 meters was good, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centerline. This minor deviation from the centerline may have been due to the pilot's decision to align the aircraft with the runway centerline at the last moment.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 110°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 3 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 1,214 meters was 53% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment with the runway centerline was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft and made the necessary corrections to ensure a safe and stable rollout. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's skills and decision-making were demonstrated to be of a high standard.
