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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 2,037 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,037 m of the 2,998 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 831 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 8 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 22 at ROMY Miyako Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,238 meters, which was 62% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 27°C, with a wind speed of 14 knots at 180°. The crosswind was 9 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile southwest of ROMY Miyako Airport, climbing from an altitude of 1,045 feet above sea level to 38,147 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,102 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 164 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 6 miles east of Ginowan, Okinawa, Japan, and lasted for 76 minutes, covering a distance of 686 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 55 miles south of Oyama, Shizuoka, Japan, descending from 36,917 feet above sea level to 12,056 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,861 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 126 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 5 miles southeast of Tateyama, Chiba-ken, Japan, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 9 miles southeast of Katsuura, Chiba-ken, Japan, descending from 12,054 feet above sea level to 9,292 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,762 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 21 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started once more 5 miles southwest of Mobara, Chiba-ken, Japan, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 4 miles southwest of Mobara, Chiba-ken, Japan, descending from 9,002 feet above sea level to 6,858 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,144 feet in 6 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 3 miles south of Shiroi, Chiba-ken, Japan, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles east of Matsudo, Chiba-ken, Japan, descending from 6,352 feet above sea level to 4,027 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,326 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started once more 1 mile west of Shimotoda, Saitama-ken, Japan, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles southeast of Wako, Saitama-ken, Japan, descending from 4,049 feet above sea level to 1,371 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,678 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16L at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport was made from the northwest, heading 150.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,333 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 16L, which had a length of 2,998 meters. The threshold height was significantly above the
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the northwest, heading 150.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,333 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was conducted with a significant crosswind component, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 179°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and a 13-knot headwind.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was significantly above the target, indicating a slightly higher-than-ideal approach path. The threshold speed was also well above the target, reaching 148 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed of 142 knots. The touchdown rate of -282 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not excessively steep.
The touchdown point was located 399 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may have been due to the aircraft's slightly fast touchdown speed and the crosswind component. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the crosswind.
Despite these deviations, the aircraft's runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll. The total landing distance of 1,939 meters was 65% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but with some areas for improvement. The pilots may have benefited from a more precise approach path and a slower touchdown speed to achieve a more ideal touchdown point and alignment.
