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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,408 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 462 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 10 at the MBPV Providenciales International Airport in the Turks and Caicos Islands. The takeoff distance was 1,326 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 159 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 31 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 89 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, but the aircraft experienced a headwind of 4 knots. The enroute climb started over the MBPV Providenciales International Airport and continued to an altitude of 37,988 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,368 feet in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 117 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which started 95 miles northeast of the MYMM Mayaguana Airport in the Bahamas. This phase lasted for 160 minutes and covered a distance of 1,120 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 5 miles northwest of Cherry Tree in Pennsylvania, United States. The descent from 37,616 feet to 33,001 feet above sea level took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 38 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles south of Marienville in Pennsylvania, United States. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 37 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, starting 2 miles west of Busti in New York, United States. The descent from 33,002 feet to 8,117 feet above sea level took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 70 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles northeast of Vineland in Ontario, Canada. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent once more, starting 10 miles northwest of St. Catharines in Ontario, Canada. The descent from 7,570 feet to 1,438 feet above sea level took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 22 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 33L at the CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport was made from the south east, heading 317.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 869 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was successful, with a touchdown distance of 462 meters and a touchdown speed of 129 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -306 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were -10 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 346 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 6 knots. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.6 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 1,114 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.5 meters from the centreline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 1,419 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 224 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 7,352 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, with a score of 85.5%. The final approach to runway 33L was initiated from the southeast, heading 317.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 869 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 141 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 462 meters, and the touchdown speed was within acceptable limits at 129 knots. However, the touchdown rate was slightly firm at -306 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slight loss of control during the landing. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.6 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the firm touchdown rate.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -10°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots from 346°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions were relatively favorable for the landing, with the headwind component helping to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance was 1,114 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled during the approach and touchdown. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.5 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a slight loss of control during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor issues with the touchdown rate and runway alignment. These issues may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's handling characteristics.
