Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 134 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 141 kt against a target of 134 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 134 kt at the threshold.
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,864 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 587 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from KLAS Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Boeing 777F began its journey with a smooth departure roll from runway 26R. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 179 kt, clearing the runway in 1,491 meters, which accounted for 45% of the available length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 28 °C, with a 10 kt headwind and a crosswind of 8 kt.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed a significant distance, covering 132 nm in 17 minutes and ascending by 29,414 ft to reach 32,542 ft. The enroute climb phase was punctuated by several level cruise segments, with the longest lasting 96 minutes and covering 865 nm. The aircraft continued to climb and descend in response to changing weather conditions and air traffic control requirements, ultimately reaching a maximum altitude of 38,480 ft. The flight's enroute phase was marked by a total fuel consumption of 111,172 kg.
The Boeing 777F began its final approach to runway 34R at OTHH Hamad International Airport, navigating through a headwind of 2 kt and a crosswind of 3 kt. The aircraft touched down 163 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 132 kt and a smooth touchdown rate of -132 fpm. The total landing distance was 1,306 meters, accounting for 27% of the available runway length. Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey of 7,502 nm in 845 minutes.
The Boeing 777F touched down on runway 34R at OTHH Hamad International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision throughout the descent. The aircraft's threshold height was well-managed, allowing for a smooth transition to the runway. The threshold speed of 141 kt was also within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed flare.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 132 kt was consistent with the recommended values, and the touchdown rate of -132 fpm was smooth, minimizing the impact on the landing gear and runway surface. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 m from the centreline, which may require attention during future approaches. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a gentle wind of 4 kt at 40 °, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,306 m, accounting for 27% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the post-touchdown phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 96.8% reflecting the aircraft's ability to execute a safe and controlled landing on runway 34R.
