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.
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,594 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 528 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A321 then departed from runway 21 at EDSB Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,220 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 5°C, a wind speed of 4 knots at 139°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,422 feet above sea level to 36,181 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,760 feet in 27 minutes, covering a distance of 156 nautical miles. The climb started overhead EDSB Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport Rheinmünster, located in the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 54 minutes and covered a distance of 450 nautical miles. This phase began 2 miles southwest of Hessisch Lichtenau, a town located in the state of Hessen, Germany.
The aircraft then began its enroute descent from 35,722 feet above sea level to 8,630 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,092 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. This descent started 1 mile northeast of Rabbalshede, a town located in the Vaestra Goetaland County, Sweden. Following the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 8 minutes and covered a distance of 30 nautical miles. This phase began 5 miles southwest of Kongsvinger, a town located in the Innlandet, Norway.
The aircraft then began its final descent from 8,582 feet above sea level to 1,965 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,617 feet in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 27 nautical miles. This descent started 4 miles south of Valer, a town located in the Innlandet, Norway. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 19R at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, which was located to the north, heading 196.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,284 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed on runway 19R at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, which had a length of 3,594 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C, a wind speed of 18 knots at 180°, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 17 knots. The touchdown point was 101 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -128 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 1,306 meters, which accounted for 36% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 762 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 130 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5,732 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a score of 99.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 196.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on runway 19R, which has a length of 3,594 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 133 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to the aircraft's momentum or the pilot's decision to touch down slightly ahead of the ideal point.
The touchdown point was 101 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown rate of -128 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating that the aircraft's descent was controlled and stable. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to align the aircraft with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 18 knots from 180°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 17 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but they were able to manage the aircraft's trajectory and touchdown point effectively.
The total landing distance of 1,306 meters was 36% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, with a perfect runway rollout alignment. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the pilot's skills were demonstrated through their ability to manage the aircraft's speed, altitude, and trajectory during the final approach and landing phases.
