Flight Score
Arrival
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 7.8 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 7.8 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 481 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 27L at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG), with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 162 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots blowing from a direction of 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft's takeoff distance was 1,299 meters, which accounted for 36% of the runway length.
Following takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile north of Roissy-en-France. The climb took place from an altitude of 1,354 feet above sea level to 38,002 feet, an increase of 36,648 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 201 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 18 minutes and covered a distance of 564 nautical miles. This was followed by another climb phase, which took place from an altitude of 37,999 feet to 38,966 feet, an increase of 967 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 54 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 47 minutes and covered a distance of 1,419 nautical miles. This was followed by a climb phase, which took place from an altitude of 38,999 feet to 40,000 feet, an increase of 1,001 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 49 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 31 minutes and covered a distance of 898 nautical miles. This was followed by a descent phase, which took place from an altitude of 39,998 feet to 1,997 feet, a decrease of 38,002 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 128 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24L at Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 227.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,438 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing took place on runway 24L, which had a length of 2,741 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 136 knots. The touchdown point was 61 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -197 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots blowing from a direction of 240 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The total landing distance was 1,280 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,322 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 147 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 44,048 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A350-900 successfully landed at Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) on runway 24L. The aircraft approached the runway from the northeast, aligning with a heading of 227.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,438 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach score was an impressive 99.8%, indicating a high level of precision and control.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 61 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the acceptable threshold. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly fast on touchdown. However, the touchdown rate of -197 feet per minute (fpm) was good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 240°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 10 knots, which the aircraft was able to handle effectively. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,280 meters was 47% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
