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 1,750 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,750 m of the 2,078 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 352 m touchdown sits inside 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 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 36L at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (LEMD). The takeoff distance was 1,458 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 156 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, a wind speed of 6 knots at 350°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 6 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 2 miles northwest of Paracuellos de Jarama, Spain, at an altitude of 2,975 feet above sea level. The climb continued for 25 minutes, covering 137 nautical miles, and resulted in an increase of 27,101 feet to an altitude of 30,076 feet above sea level. The enroute level cruise then started 2 miles north of Azuara, Aragon, Spain, and lasted for 47 minutes, covering 302 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb 85 miles northeast of Es Castell, Comunitat Autonoma de les Illes Balears, Spain, from an altitude of 33,567 feet above sea level to 34,901 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,334 feet in just 2 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then resumed 93 miles northeast of Es Castell and lasted for 38 minutes, covering 290 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it started its enroute descent 72 miles northwest of Marettimo, Sicilia, Italy, from an altitude of 34,938 feet above sea level to 1,303 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,635 feet in 25 minutes, covering 134 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 20 at Falcone–Borsellino Airport (LICJ) was made from the northeast, heading 204.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,253 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 20 was successful, with a good threshold height, threshold speed, and touchdown distance. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 137 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -224 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, a wind speed of 3 knots at 70°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,672 meters, which accounted for 80% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing to the parking from the runway took 8 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 881 nautical miles, taking 151 minutes, and the aircraft used 7,544 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Falcone–Borsellino Airport, with a score of 97.2%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 204.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,253 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course, aligning itself perfectly with the runway for a smooth touchdown.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 20, which has a length of 2,078 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed of 141 knots was also within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 352 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient control and stability during the landing process.
However, there was a slight deviation in the touchdown speed, which was recorded at 137 knots, slightly above the ideal speed. This resulted in a touchdown rate of -224 feet per minute (fpm), which was considered fair. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled and aligned with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 11°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 70°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 2 knots each, which did not significantly impact the landing process.
The total landing distance of 1,672 meters was 80% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient control and stability during the rollout phase. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a steady course and aligning itself with the runway exit. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a high score of 97.2%, reflecting the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance.
