Arrival
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 7.3 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 7.3 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.
See Arrival Landing
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,130 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 445 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 11 at NTTB Bora Bora Airport, a movement that lasted six minutes and covered approximately one nautical mile.
During the departure roll on runway 11, the Boeing 737-600 accelerated to a liftoff speed of 140 kt and became airborne after traveling 760 m, which represents 51 % of the runway length. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with an 8 kt wind from 120°, including a 1 kt cross-wind component and an 8 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced one mile southeast of NTTB, near Motu Mute, where the aircraft rose from 970 ft asl to 21 010 ft asl, gaining 20 041 ft in eight minutes while covering 50 nm.
Cruise began eight miles southeast of NTTH Huahine-Fare Airport and was maintained for five minutes, during which the flight covered 38 nm at level altitude.
Descent was initiated 45 nm southeast of NTTH, with the aircraft descending from 21 005 ft asl to 1 301 ft asl, a loss of 19 705 ft over fifteen minutes and a distance of 71 nm.
The final approach to runway 04 at NTAA Faa’a International Airport reduced altitude from 1 336 ft agl to 43 ft agl in 104 seconds, and the aircraft met the stabilisation gate criteria.
Landing on runway 04 was executed with a threshold speed of 133 kt on a runway 3 130 m long. Touchdown occurred at 445 m from the threshold, at 125 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 171 fpm and perfect alignment.
Rollout continued to a total landing distance of 1 426 m, representing 46 % of the runway, and the aircraft maintained very good alignment throughout the rollout.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in one minute, covering less than one nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered 167 nm, required 37 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 1 746 kg of fuel.
