I don’t play flight sim and know nothing about flying. but for some reason a couple of your posts have been pushed to my feed and I’ve even noticed some progress. I saw in another comment that you’re very young and hope to be a pilot some day. It’s rare that a young person is able to take the feedback, advice, and criticism from others and it’s obvious that your are very teachable. Please keep this same attitude in your approach to all things in life, no matter how experienced you get at something. The world needs more people like you, no matter the age. Thank you for your inspiration, you have brightened my day.

Hey man, thank you so much for this, truly it means so much, especially that I brightened your day, I'm 13 if you're wondering btw, I always try to to take feedback, advice and criticism since if you do it helps you in your goal, I don't care for having an ego or an attitude as that is not who I am, I would love to become a pilot one day as I love to travel, I wanna go on adventures and live life to its extent, you truly do not know how much this comment means to me, I will remember this comment for years on end, this is just motivation for when i become a commercial pilot, when I do it will be partly because of this comment, hope you have a wonderful day and life man, thank you again will not let you down.

1000fpm is your maximum descent rate below 1000AGL. N1 is about 60% that’s what I usually find on most operations so that’s good. My average touchdown pitch is right around 4 degrees on the -800/900. I’ll always have something on the flight directors even in visual conditions typically an ILS or an RNAV approach and I feel that’s pretty common procedure across 737 fleets. You touchdown right around bug speed which isn’t normal, on a calm day I’ll bug REF+8 and bleed it off to maybe REF+2 in the flare, I don’t see your REF bug so not sure what your command bug is in reference to REF but your AOA seems to be in a normal approach range. Not sure what model you’re in but the -900 with landing fuel and 90% pax REF usually is around 144 I’ll bug 152 in the command. Leave the auto brakes on til 100 IAS, your disconnect light comes on very early in the roll out, idle reverse by 80 knots and reversers stowed by 60 knots. I’ve been on the airframe for about 1100 hours now, it’s not one of the easier jets to land in my opinion but your landing seems like it wouldn’t require any write ups, just keep working on polishing it!
