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 six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,357 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 174 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Embraer E175 aircraft took off from runway 08 at KDEN Denver International Airport, a major airport in Colorado, United States. The departure roll was smooth, and the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 147 kt. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 19 °C, with a wind speed of 15 kt blowing from a direction of 100 °. This resulted in a headwind of 15 kt, which was beneficial for the takeoff.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started 2 miles east of KDEN. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 6,286 ft above sea level to a maximum altitude of 32,875 ft, an increase of 26,588 ft in just 11 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 93 nm. The aircraft then entered its enroute level cruise phase, which started 12 miles northeast of Pine Bluffs, Wyoming. During this phase, the aircraft maintained a steady altitude and flew for 18 minutes, covering a distance of 477 nm.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 5 miles east of KDAC Cando Airport in North Dakota. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 32,539 ft to a final altitude of 1,994 ft, a decrease of 30,546 ft in 17 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of 113 nm. The aircraft then lined up for its final approach to runway 18 at CYWG Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport, a major airport in Manitoba, Canada.
The final approach was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 187.0 ° at an altitude of 1,207 ft above ground level and a distance of 4 nm from the runway threshold. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 °C, with a wind speed of 12 kt blowing from a direction of 160 °. This resulted in a headwind of 11 kt and a crosswind of 6 kt. The aircraft landed on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 132 kt, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance was good, at 174 m, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.6 m from the centreline.
The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking just 3 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 692 nm, and the flight duration was 56 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,318 kg of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was smooth and uneventful, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of weather conditions.
The Embraer E175 aircraft successfully landed at Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) with a score of 95.6%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 187.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,207 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 18, which has a length of 3,357 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 134 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for the landing.
The touchdown distance was reported as good, at 174 meters, which is a reasonable distance for an aircraft of this size. However, the touchdown speed was slightly faster than ideal, coming in at 132 knots. This may have contributed to the very hard touchdown rate of -529 feet per minute (fpm), which is higher than the typical rate for a safe landing.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 4.6 meters. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation by the pilot. However, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 2°C and a wind of 12 knots at 160°, may have also played a role in the aircraft's alignment.
The total landing distance was 1,020 meters, which is 30% of the runway length. This is a relatively short distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop quickly after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, such as the high touchdown speed and the hard touchdown rate. However, the aircraft's ability to stop quickly and maintain its alignment with the runway after touchdown were notable positives.
