Jev at the flare

The scripted crew flies the ILS to Dallas Fort Worth 17C. About ten times a second Jev, TypeSafe's judging model, is asked which of four height readings tells the wheels' true height; the flare begins when the one it trusts goes below 33 ft, as today's formula does on radio altimeter 1. Break an instrument and watch which one it believes.

The readings, and Jev's doubt in each

The flare

Jev

Jev judges; code counts and keeps time. Each answer is a few typed questions built from fixed templates by this site's server, where the key stays. If Jev has not answered for two seconds, today's formula begins the flare; under both, the simulator begins it by 20 ft.

Once begun, the flare here flies FBW's trigger-height law: it steers on the 33 ft the trigger stands for, carried down by the aircraft's own vertical speed, and reads no altimeter after it. So the moment of the trigger, and so Jev's judgment, decides the landing. The simulator's default law steers on the radio altimeter all the way down, and with one that lies no trigger saves it.
