Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 82 ft off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Add power on short final to hold 142 kt over the threshold.
What happened: Threshold speed was 13 kt slow at 129 kt, and the flare began late at 0.3 ft, well below the normal band. Crossing slow and flaring late like this usually leaves little energy and time to check the sink, and the touchdown then comes in firm.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 142 kt at the threshold
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up and centreline 25.2° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up, glideslope 5.5° against the runway's 3°, centreline 19.8° off, against a 1° limit and speed 13 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 142 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the full 5,000 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 363 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 1.37 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 08R at CYVR Vancouver International Airport, a movement that lasted 22 minutes and covered 5 nm.
Take-off was performed on runway 08R with a takeoff distance of 12,238 ft (107 % of runway). Rotation occurred at 125 kt. The local weather at departure was temperature 44 °F, wind 2 kt from 080°, with a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 20 seconds, averaging 2,401 fpm and reaching 162 kt at the top of the segment. The aircraft then climbed from 984 ft asl to 28,494 ft asl in 12 minutes, covering 66 nm while passing overhead Richmond.
A level segment at 28,200 ft asl was flown for 8 minutes, covering 63 nm, beginning 11 nm north-east of Concrete. The climb continued from 28,216 ft asl to 36,579 ft asl in 5 minutes, covering 38 nm, starting 2 nm south of WS87 Port Field Twisp.
The aircraft cruised at 37,000 ft asl for 61 minutes, covering 444 nm, beginning 4 nm west of 2WA6 Rice Ranch Airport Grand Coulee.
Descent from 36,740 ft asl to 8,498 ft asl took 38 minutes and covered 195 nm, starting 18 nm north-east of KJAC Jackson Hole Airport. A level segment at 8,500 ft asl was flown for 2 minutes, covering 8 nm, beginning 13 nm south of Rawlins.
A climb from 8,776 ft asl to 9,604 ft asl lasted 4 minutes, covering 13 nm, starting 15 nm west of KSAA Shively Field Saratoga. This was followed by a descent from 9,598 ft asl to 7,193 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 7 nm, beginning 8 nm south-west of KSAA Shively Field Saratoga.
Final approach was to a runway 1 nm north-west of Encampment, Wyoming. Descent from 1,179 ft agl to 39 ft agl occurred in 83 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway showed the landing flap, sink rate, and wings level were met; gear down, glideslope, centreline, and speed were not met (each missed at one gate). The aircraft was in final flap position 3 at 4,593 ft agl with a speed of 238 kt.
From 52 ft agl to touchdown at 0 ft agl the aircraft lost 52 ft in 2 seconds. The flare was described as very poor, starting late. Touchdown speed was 129 kt and was noted as good. The touchdown rate was very heavy at minus 1,861 fpm. Touchdown distance was good at 363 ft. Local weather at landing was temperature 56 °F, wind 3 kt from 224°, with a 2 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind. No bounce occurred on touchdown.
The total flight covered 844 nm, lasted 144 minutes, and consumed 11,726 lb of fuel.
