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 1,673 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,673 m of the 3,026 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 607 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Boeing 777-200ER taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Frankfurt Airport, taking approximately 4 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 07C, with a takeoff distance of 639 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots at a direction of 70 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from Frankfurt Airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile northeast of the airport. The climb took 20 minutes to reach an altitude of 40,242 feet, an increase of 38,874 feet from the initial altitude of 1,369 feet. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 125 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which began overhead the town of Herrmannsacker in Thuringia, Germany. This phase lasted for 35 minutes and covered a distance of 270 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent, which started overhead the town of Adamow in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland. The descent took 25 minutes to reach an altitude of 1,670 feet, a decrease of 38,433 feet from the initial altitude of 40,103 feet. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 108 nautical miles. The final approach to Warsaw Chopin Airport was made from the southeast, heading 332.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft landed on runway 33 at Warsaw Chopin Airport, which had a length of 3,026 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots at a direction of 290 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, and the headwind component was also 5 knots. The touchdown point was 185 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 131 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -230 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the total landing distance was 1,585 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 510 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 90 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,334 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport, achieving a score of 94.5%. The final approach to runway 33 was initiated from the south east, with a heading of 332.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed of 133 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown point was located 185 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 131 knots was slightly faster than ideal, resulting in a touchdown rate of -230 feet per minute, which was deemed fair.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 290°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway length at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport is 3,026 meters, providing a sufficient margin for the aircraft to come to a stop.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,585 meters, which accounted for 52% of the available runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance, although it could have potentially stopped earlier with a more optimal touchdown speed. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The pilot's ability to maintain control and navigate the aircraft to a safe stop was evident, and the landing was completed without any major issues.
