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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 443 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, the CRJ900 began its takeoff roll on runway 34, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 138 kt. The aircraft utilized 44% of the available runway length, covering a distance of 1,775 meters before lifting off into the air. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 10 °C, with a wind blowing at 22 kt from a direction of 330 °, resulting in a 6 kt crosswind and a 21 kt headwind.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from an initial altitude of 959 ft asl to 2,412 ft asl, a vertical gain of 1,453 ft over a distance of 2 nm in just 1 minute. Following this initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 2,412 ft asl for 13 minutes while covering a distance of 43 nm. The aircraft then began its descent, approaching runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport from the south, with a heading of 345.0 ° at an altitude of 1,626 ft agl.
The CRJ900 touched down on runway 34 with a touchdown speed of 128 kt, slightly above the target threshold speed of 127 kt. The touchdown distance of 442 meters was within acceptable limits, and the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.5 meters. The aircraft utilized 22% of the available runway length, covering a total landing distance of 892 meters. Following touchdown, the aircraft's rollout alignment was very good, and it utilized a total of 605 kg of fuel for the 51 nm flight, which lasted 16 minutes.
The CRJ900 touched down on runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport with a good threshold height, but slightly above the target threshold speed of 142 kt at 143 kt. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, resulting in a touchdown distance of 442 m, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 128 kt was also satisfactory, but the touchdown rate of -420 fpm was slightly harder than desired.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.5 m, which may have been due to the 3 kt crosswind component. However, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 8 °C and a 22 kt headwind at 340 °, were generally favorable for the landing. The total landing distance of 892 m, which accounted for 22% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits.
The rollout phase was executed well, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment with the centreline. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 93.9%. The slight misalignment and hard touchdown rate were the only notable deviations from the ideal landing profile.
