Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 99 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 99 ft, 54 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
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 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,386 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,386 m of the 3,352 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 998 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight departed from Munich Airport, where the Boeing 777F taxied from the parking area to the runway in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft began its departure roll on runway 26L and successfully took off, reaching a liftoff speed of 194 knots (194 kt) within a takeoff distance of 2,322 meters, which made up 58% of the runway.
During the climb phase, the aircraft started ascending 1 mile northwest of Hallbergmoos, Bavaria, Germany, from an initial altitude of 2,520 feet above sea level to 30,116 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,597 feet. This transition took place over a distance of 111 nautical miles in 17 minutes. Subsequently, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase overhead Estenfeld, Bavaria, Germany, and continued for 102 minutes, covering 854 nautical miles.
Throughout the flight, the aircraft entered into numerous enroute climb and level cruise phases over various geographical locations, including Dooagh, Ireland; a specific latitude and longitude in the North Atlantic Ocean; Pennwyn, Pennsylvania; and Winterstown, Pennsylvania, each resulting in varying altitudes and flight distances.
The descent phase was initiated over Akron, Pennsylvania, from an altitude of 35,814 feet above sea level to 33,878 feet, a decrease of 1,936 feet, within 3 minutes, and covered a distance of 25 nautical miles. Further descent phases occurred, the most significant one being from 33,974 feet above sea level to 2,231 feet above sea level in 20 minutes, while covering 103 nautical miles, before the final approach to runway 22 at KGSP Greenville Spartanburg International Airport in North Carolina, United States.
Upon reaching the airport, the aircraft performed a final approach from the northeast, aligning itself with a heading of 214 degrees, 4 nautical miles off the runway, and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level. The aircraft successfully landed on runway 22, with a touchdown point placed 587 meters beyond the touchdown zone. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.0 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the touchdown time were favorable, with a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, a headwind of 5 knots, and a crosswind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 2,311 meters, which made up 69% of the runway, while the runway rollout alignment was deemed very good.
Finally, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Throughout its entire flight, the aircraft covered a total distance of 4,038 nautical miles and consumed 77,090 kilograms of fuel, while completing the journey in 541 minutes.
The Boeing 777F aircraft completed a successful landing at Greenville Spartanburg International Airport, scoring 87.3%. The aircraft began its final approach to runway 22 from the north-east direction, flying at a heading of 214.0° at an altitude of 1,268 ft (384.5 m) above ground level (AGL) and a distance of 4 nm from the runway. The aircraft achieved a good touchdown speed of 142 kt.
Upon touching down, the aircraft was slightly above the target threshold height at 59 ft (17.98 m) AGL, and the ground speed was slightly above the target threshold speed at 151 kt. The touchdown point was 587 m beyond the designated touchdown zone. The aircraft's touchdown rate, however, was considered fair at -204 fpm, indicating a moderate descent rate at the moment of touchdown.
During the landing, the aircraft maintained a very good runway rollout alignment. Notably, despite a slight misalignment of 4.0 m from the centerline during the initial touchdown, the aircraft's rollout was well-aligned. The local weather conditions during the landing included a temperature of 30 °C and winds of 5 kt from 190 °, resulting in a net headwind component of 5 kt.
The total landing distance of 2,311 m was 69% of the available runway length. Considering the aircraft's mass and performance characteristics, this indicates a relatively manageable landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered good, with only minor deviations from the optimal approach and landing parameters, ultimately resulting in a score of 87.3%.
