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 3,508 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 437 m touchdown sits inside 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 at SLLP El Alto International Airport, taking approximately 9 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 28, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 155 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 19°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 239°.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile west of the airport and continued for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 87 nautical miles. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 14,118 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 35,985 feet, an increase of 21,868 feet. The climb was conducted in a region with a local weather condition of a temperature of 19°C and wind speeds of 4 knots of crosswind and 7 knots of headwind.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 27 miles east of Quime and lasted for 12 minutes, covering a distance of 98 nautical miles. This was followed by a descent phase, which began 15 miles southeast of SLCH Chimore Airport and continued for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 122 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 35,985 feet to 3,732 feet, a decrease of 32,253 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 5 miles northeast of Cotoca and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. This was followed by a final descent phase, which began 2 miles north of Cotoca and continued for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,447 feet to 2,518 feet, a decrease of 930 feet.
The final approach to runway 34 at SLVR Viru Viru International Airport was conducted from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 327.0° at an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on a runway with a length of 3,508 meters, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was well above the target speed at 146 knots.
The touchdown point was 174 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 139 knots, which was fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -338 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 36°C, with a wind speed of 35 knots at 330°.
The total landing distance was 1,222 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took approximately 4 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 332 nautical miles, taking a total of 76 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,783 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 aircraft successfully landed at SLVR Viru Viru International Airport, with a score of 88.8%. The final approach to runway 34 was initiated from the south east, heading 327.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 3,508 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was significantly above the target speed, reaching 146 knots. This suggests that the aircraft may have been experiencing some drag or other factors that affected its descent rate.
The touchdown point was located 174 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate that the aircraft was slightly long on its landing. The touchdown speed was also reported as fast, at 139 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -338 feet per minute. This suggests that the aircraft may have been experiencing some deceleration issues during the landing.
In terms of alignment, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a combination of factors, including wind and pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were hot, with a temperature of 36°C, and windy, with a wind speed of 35 knots from 330°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind component was significant, at 35 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,222 meters, which is 35% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to decelerate quickly after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction after touchdown. Overall, while there were some issues with the landing, the aircraft was able to safely touch down and come to a stop on the runway.
