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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,042 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,042 m of the 2,329 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 856 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 15 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 35R at ZBAD Beijing Daxing International Airport. The takeoff distance was 2,246 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 187 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 7°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 324°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of ZBAD Beijing Daxing International Airport. The climb took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,114 feet above sea level to 4,697 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,583 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 10 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 5 miles southeast of ZBNY Beijing Nanyuan Air Base and lasted 5 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 6 miles northeast of Langfang. The climb took 14 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 5,177 feet above sea level to 28,281 feet above sea level, an increase of 23,105 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 84 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started 34 miles north of ZGUO Gulou Airport and lasted 475 minutes, covering a distance of 3,914 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, starting 25 miles west of Upper Liard. The climb took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 29,018 feet above sea level to 32,218 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,200 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 32 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started 3 miles east of Watson Lake and lasted 358 minutes, covering a distance of 2,235 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles northeast of Williamstown. The descent took 16 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 33,014 feet above sea level to 2,999 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,015 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 97 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started overhead Topsfield and lasted 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Peabody. The descent took 2 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 2,657 feet above sea level to 1,311 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,346 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 200.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,280 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 22L, which has a length of 2,329 meters. The threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 149 knots.
The touchdown point was 435 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 136 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was fair at -204 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 1°C, with a wind speed of
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at KBOS Logan International Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north, heading 200.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 22L, which has a length of 2,329 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 435 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the ideal touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the descent. However, the touchdown rate of -204 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced some deceleration issues during the landing.
The threshold height at 66 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly higher than desired when it reached the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 149 knots was also slightly above the target, which may have contributed to the aircraft's deviation from the ideal touchdown point.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 1°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 220°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's performance during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,957 meters was 84% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 13.4 meters from the centerline. These deviations from the ideal alignment may have been caused by the pilot's response to the wind conditions or other factors.
Overall, the landing was successful, but with some notable deviations from the ideal parameters. The pilot's performance was good, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point accuracy and touchdown rate.
