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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,538 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,538 m of the 2,925 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 293 m touchdown sits inside 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 08R at EDDP Leipzig/Halle Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,611 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 165 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 240°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the tailwind was 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of EDDP Leipzig/Halle Airport, and climbed from 1,477 feet above sea level to 32,657 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,180 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 85 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles northeast of Noerten-Hardenberg, Germany, and lasted for 72 minutes, covering a distance of 1,142 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 33,603 feet above sea level to 34,722 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,118 feet, in 11 minutes and covering a distance of 596 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time at Latitude 56.9990187 and Longitude -40.0239693, and lasted for 29 minutes, covering a distance of 1,070 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 34 miles northeast of Baie-Comeau, Quebec, Canada. The descent was from 34,041 feet above sea level to 9,018 feet above sea level, a decrease of 25,024 feet, in 24 minutes and covering a distance of 318 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time 1 mile east of Saint-Barnabe-Sud, Quebec, Canada, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute descent, starting 5 miles southeast of Saint-Denis-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, Canada. The descent was from 8,864 feet above sea level to 2,831 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,033 feet, in 5 minutes and covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again, this time 1 mile east of Montreal-Est, Quebec, Canada, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24L at CYUL Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport was from the northeast, heading 223.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,287 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 292 meters, a touchdown speed of 137 knots, and a touchdown rate of -464 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -2°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 270°.
The total landing distance was 1,456 meters, which is 50% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,254 nautical miles, taking a total of 184 minutes, and the aircraft used 53,568 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (CYUL) on runway 24L. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,287 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 96.6%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent. The threshold speed was also within the acceptable range at 142 knots, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach. The touchdown distance of 292 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
However, the touchdown rate was slightly harder than expected at -464 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly steeper descent than intended. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2°C and winds of 12 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft's approach and landing, demonstrating a high level of skill and experience.
The total landing distance of 1,456 meters was 50% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of proficiency in managing the aircraft's approach and landing.
