Improve the touchdown
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,005 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,005 m of the 2,614 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 426 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A Boeing 777F departed from Milan Malpensa International Airport, taxiing from the parking area to the runway took 12 minutes and covered 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then rolled down runway 35R, taking off with a distance of 2,072 meters, which accounted for 70% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 186 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 26°C, with a negligible wind speed of 1 knot at 0°.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed over 104 nautical miles in 17 minutes, increasing its altitude from 529 meters above sea level to 9,100 meters. The enroute level cruise phase started approximately 1 mile southwest of Tanay, Switzerland, and lasted for 70 minutes, covering a distance of 1,024 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent several climb and cruise phases, with notable increases in altitude and distance covered. The final descent phase began approximately 46 miles east of Hutchinson Island South, Florida, and lasted for 23 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 10,621 meters to 1,260 meters above sea level.
The Boeing 777F landed on runway 08L at Miami International Airport, with a touchdown distance of 427 meters and a speed of 159 knots. The touchdown rate was -2.1 meters per second, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,925 meters, accounting for 74% of the runway. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 4 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 4,479 nautical miles, taking 247 minutes, and the aircraft consumed 83,835 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777F touched down on runway 08L at KMIA Miami International Airport, with a threshold height of 17.3 meters above ground level, slightly above the target. The aircraft's approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 88.0 degrees from the west at 4 nautical miles and 409.1 meters above ground level. The threshold speed of 160 knots was well above the target, indicating a high level of pilot control during the final stages of the approach.
The touchdown characteristics were notable, with a touchdown distance of 427 meters, which was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 159 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -2.1 meters per second was hard. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centreline, which may have contributed to the slightly hard touchdown. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and a 5-knot headwind, were favorable for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,925 meters was 74% of the runway length, indicating a good utilization of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.2 meters from the centreline, which was a minor deviation from the desired path. Overall, the landing was scored 93.7%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilots during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
