Flight Score
Arrival
Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.
What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.
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.
At the 152 m gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 176 m touchdown sits inside 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 01L at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen. The takeoff distance was 1,462 meters, which is 41% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 40 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead Gardermoen and took the aircraft from an altitude of 516 meters above sea level to 10,283 meters above sea level, an increase of 9,767.1 meters in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted 38 minutes and covered a distance of 282 nautical miles. This phase started 18 miles south east of Tolga, Norway. The aircraft then began its first descent, which took it from an altitude of 10,190 meters above sea level to 2,629 meters above sea level, a decrease of 7,560.9 meters in 20 minutes and covering a distance of 113 nautical miles. This descent started 19 miles south west of Rokland, Norway.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted 47 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This phase started 4 miles west of Ramsund, Norway. However, the aircraft soon began its second descent, which took it from an altitude of 2,629 meters above sea level to 1,722 meters above sea level, a decrease of 907.1 meters in 5 minutes and covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. This descent also started 4 miles west of Ramsund, Norway.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted 8 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. This phase started 1 mile north east of Borkenes, Norway. However, the aircraft soon began its third descent, which took it from an altitude of 1,652 meters above sea level to 1,170 meters above sea level, a decrease of 482.2 meters in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. This descent started 5 miles south east of Borkenes, Norway.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase started 3 miles south of Harstad, Norway. However, the aircraft soon began its fourth descent, which took it from an altitude of 1,139 meters above sea level to 515 meters above sea level, a decrease of 623.9 meters in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. This descent started 6 miles north of Evenskjer, Norway.
The final approach to runway 17 at ENEV Harstad/Narvik Airport, Evenes was made from the north, heading 178.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 486.0 meters above ground level. The landing on runway 17 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 179 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 151 knots, while the touchdown rate was very heavy at -4.4 meters per second. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius. The total landing distance was 1,432 meters, which is
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at ENEV Harstad/Narvik Airport, Evenes, with a score of 89.9%. The final approach to runway 17 was initiated from the north, heading 178.0° at an altitude of 486.0 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 149 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed of 151 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 179 meters was considered good. The touchdown rate of -4.4 meters per second was deemed very heavy, indicating a steep descent.
Upon landing, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was found to be slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline. This deviation may have been due to various factors, including wind conditions or pilot error. The local weather at the time of landing was characterized by a temperature of 2°C.
The total landing distance of 1,432 meters was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was reported to be very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, preventing any further deviation from the centerline.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely on the runway. However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters, including a slightly fast touchdown speed and a heavy touchdown rate. These issues can be addressed through further training and adjustments to the aircraft's handling characteristics.
