Arrival
Add power sooner on final to hold 147 kt by the stabilisation gate, not just at the threshold.
What happened: The approach was slow at the stabilisation gate, and the aircraft carried that deficit all the way to the threshold, still 14 kt below VREF; arriving that slow usually leaves little energy to cushion the flare, as it did here with a touchdown rate of 252 fpm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 147 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: speed 24 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 147 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 9 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 147 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,990 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 580 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. With a local temperature of 18 °C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 270°, the aircraft took off from runway 04R, utilizing 1,411 meters, or 48% of the runway's length, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 150 kt.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it traversed a distance of 135 nautical miles, increasing its altitude from 1,078 ft to 36,006 ft in 21 minutes. The enroute climb phase was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude over various locations in Italy and Austria. Notably, the aircraft's fuel consumption during this phase was moderate, with a total fuel usage of 3,276 kg. The descent phase began over Condino, Italy, and continued through several level cruises before the aircraft began its final approach to runway 26 at Innsbruck Airport.
The final approach was executed from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 262.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,693 ft above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down 169 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 124 kt. The touchdown rate was fair at -246 fpm, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,167 meters, or 62% of the runway's length, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. After taxiing to the parking area, the aircraft completed its journey, covering a total distance of 352 nautical miles and utilizing 71 minutes of flight time.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 26 at LOWI Innsbruck Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision throughout the descent. The aircraft descended from 1,693 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, aligning itself with the runway heading of 262.0°. The threshold height was good, allowing for a smooth transition into the landing phase.
As the aircraft touched down 169 meters beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed of 124 knots was within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed flare. However, the touchdown rate of -246 feet per minute was slightly higher than desired, suggesting a slightly longer-than-ideal descent. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the approach path. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by excellent alignment with the centerline, demonstrating good control and stability during the deceleration phase. The total landing distance of 1,167 meters, accounting for 62% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 95.9% reflecting the minor deviations in touchdown rate and runway alignment.
