Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power sooner on final so you cross the threshold at 143 kt, carrying that speed into the flare.
What happened: Crossing the threshold at 149 kt, 6 kt above 143 kt, usually leaves extra energy that lets the sink come back after the flare has arrested it, and that returning sink usually carries through to a firm touchdown.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 143 kt at the threshold.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: centreline 5.9° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 2.2° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,671 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 723 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777F departed Auckland International Airport (NZAA) on runway 23L, applying a take-off roll of 877 m which represented 24 % of the available runway. Rotation was achieved at 142 kt. Ambient conditions were 13 °C with a wind from 300° at 11 kt, including an 8 kt cross-wind component and a 7 kt head-wind component.
During the climb the aircraft lifted off overhead NZAA and ascended from 1,023 ft ASL to 1,314 ft ASL, gaining 291 ft in 1 minute while covering 3 nm.
The level cruise segment began 3 mi southwest of NZAA and continued for 5 minutes, during which the flight traversed 14 nm at cruise altitude.
On final approach to runway 23L the crew descended from 1,428 ft AGL to 87 ft AGL in 105 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gate criteria.
Touchdown occurred on runway 23L, whose total length is 3,671 m. The threshold height measured 55 ft AGL, slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was recorded at 149 kt. The aircraft contacted the runway 301 m beyond the designated touchdown zone at a speed of 131 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 460 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was perfect. Weather at the time was 14 °C with a wind from 300° at 8 kt, a 6 kt cross-wind and a 6 kt head-wind. The landing roll measured 1,122 m, representing 31 % of the runway, and the subsequent rollout was offset by 8.1 m from the centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to parking in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
In total the flight covered 23 nm, lasted 11 minutes, and consumed 26,052 kg of fuel.
