Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,408 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 519 m past the threshold — beyond 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 approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 04 at LBBG Burgas Airport. The takeoff distance was 961 meters, which is 30% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 19°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Sarafovo, a location near Burgas, Bulgaria. The climb took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 144 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,159 feet above sea level to 38,040 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,881 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 5 miles west of Ugarchin, a location near Lovech, Bulgaria. This phase lasted for 176 minutes and covered a distance of 936 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Palafrugell, a location in Catalunya, Spain. The descent took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 38,191 feet above sea level to 3,000 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,191 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south-east of Alcoletge, a location in Catalunya, Spain. This phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 31 at LEDA Lleida-Alguaire Airport, approaching from the south-east. The aircraft was heading at 313.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 31 was successful, with a touchdown point located 98 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 109 knots, which was good, while the touchdown rate was fair at -244 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 90°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots.
The total landing distance was 953 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,202 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 179 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 7,227 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at Lleida-Alguaire Airport (LEDA) on runway 31. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 313.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.5%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 109 kt, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 118 kt. The touchdown point was located 98 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but still within a manageable distance. The touchdown rate of -244 fpm was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have benefited from a slightly more gradual descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 6 kt from a direction of 90°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 kt and a tailwind of 4 kt, which did not significantly impact the aircraft's performance. The runway length of 2,408 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 953 meters, which accounted for approximately 40% of the runway.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing.
