Work on the flare
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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,012 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,012 m of the 2,944 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 701 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 07 at EDDS Stuttgart Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,614 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started enroute climb 1 mile north west of Neuhausen auf den Fildern, a town in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. The climb took 24 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 670 meters above sea level to 11,580 meters above sea level, an increase of 10,909.1 meters. The enroute climb covered a distance of 149 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south west of Hessisch Lichtenau, a town in Hessen, Germany. This phase lasted for 62 minutes and covered a distance of 418 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent 4 miles south west of Varekil, a town in Vaestra Goetaland County, Sweden. The descent took 26 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 11,584 meters above sea level to 610 meters above sea level, a decrease of 10,974.4 meters. The enroute descent covered a distance of 124 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 01R at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen was made from the south, with a heading of 16.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 400.9 meters above ground level. The landing was made on runway 01R, which had a length of 2,944 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 134 knots.
The touchdown point was 284 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -1.3 meters per second. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, but the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 25.3 meters from the centreline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 697 nautical miles, which was covered in 118 minutes. The aircraft used 4,217 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an Airbus A321, successfully landed at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a score of 85.4%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 16.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 400.9 meters above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 01R, which has a length of 2,944 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots. However, the touchdown point was located 284 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was considered good, but the touchdown rate of -1.3 meters per second was only fair.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 9°C. The total landing distance was 1,928 meters, which represents 65% of the runway length.
One area for improvement was noted during the rollout phase, where the aircraft's alignment with the runway centerline was off by 25.3 meters. This misalignment may have been caused by a variety of factors, including pilot error or a deviation in the aircraft's trajectory during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point accuracy and rollout alignment.
