Work on the flare
See Arrival Landing
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,583 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,583 m of the 3,986 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 618 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Aircraft departed from Vienna International Airport (LOWW) on runway 16, utilizing 30% of the 3,600-meter runway to achieve a takeoff distance of 1,080 meters. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 140 knots, with a local temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and wind conditions of 9 knots at 129 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Klein-Neusiedl, Austria, and continued to ascend to 28,009 feet above sea level, a gain of 26,363 feet in 12 minutes and covering 74 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a series of level cruises, with the first lasting 2 minutes and covering 12 nautical miles west of Neuhofen an der Ybbs. The aircraft continued to cruise at various altitudes, with a final level cruise lasting 7 minutes and covering 37 nautical miles over Neuotting, Bavaria, Germany. The aircraft then began its descent, eventually landing on runway 08L at Munich Airport (EDDM) after a total flight distance of 236 nautical miles.
The landing was executed with a threshold height of 60 feet above ground level, slightly above the target, and a threshold speed of 138 knots, slightly above the target. The touchdown point was 197 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots and a touchdown rate of -244 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The aircraft utilized 2,360 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which lasted 54 minutes. Taxiing from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The final approach to runway 08L at EDDM Munich Airport was initiated from the west, heading 83.0° at 4 nm and 1,348 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with the threshold height at 60 ft agl being above the target. The aircraft touched down 197 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-shoot. The touchdown speed of 129 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -244 fpm was fair.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 138 kt, but this did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13 °C and a wind of 15 kt at 90°, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the headwind component was 15 kt, which helped to reduce the landing distance.
The total landing distance of 1,497 m was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 92.3%. While there were some minor deviations from the target values, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance ensured a safe and controlled landing.
