Flight Score
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 259 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 359 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,627 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,627 ft of the 13,128 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,973 ft 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 13 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 08R at Miami International Airport (KMIA). The takeoff distance was 3,908 feet, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 94°F and winds of 5 knots at 110°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots. After departing from KMIA, the enroute climb started 1 mile south of Brownsville, Florida. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,030 feet above sea level to 23,848 feet, an increase of 22,819 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 63 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 19 miles south of Chokoloskee, Florida, and lasted for 18 minutes, covering a distance of 124 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 36 miles south of Ft. Jefferson Seaplane Key West, Florida. The descent took 23 minutes, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude from 24,100 feet to 1,485 feet, a decrease of 22,615 feet, covering a distance of 71 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06 at José Martí International Airport (MUHA) was made from the southwest, heading 54.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,260 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 06, which had a length of 13,128 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 152 knots. The touchdown point was 629 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 141 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -283 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at MUHA were a temperature of 73°F and winds of 2 knots at 359°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 5,383 feet, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 268 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 72 minutes. The aircraft used 7,468 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at MUHA José Martí International Airport, achieving a score of 97.0%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the southwest, with a heading of 54.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was above the target, reaching 152 knots. The touchdown point was located 629 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 141 knots was slightly faster than desired, and the touchdown rate of -283 feet per minute was considered fair.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 73°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 359°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind and headwind, with both being 1 knot. The runway length of 13,128 feet provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely.
The total landing distance of 5,383 feet was 41% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled manner.
