Work on the flare
See Arrival Landing
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,116 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,116 m of the 2,692 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 543 m past the threshold — beyond 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 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 05L at UAAA Almaty International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,612 meters, which is 36% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 173 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 119°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 0 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of UAAA Almaty International Airport. The climb took 15 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 3,287 feet above sea level to 30,368 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,082 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 79 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 32 miles northeast of Korday, Kazakhstan, and lasted 23 minutes, covering 179 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 30,372 feet above sea level to 32,373 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,002 feet, in just 3 minutes, covering 27 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise that followed lasted 189 minutes, covering 1,432 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 32,026 feet above sea level to 33,505 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,479 feet, in just 2 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise that followed lasted 183 minutes, covering 1,309 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 2 miles northeast of Bras-sur-Meuse, France. The descent took 14 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 33,581 feet above sea level to 12,384 feet above sea level, a decrease of 21,197 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 72 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise that followed lasted just 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent, this time from 11,861 feet above sea level to 1,682 feet above sea level, a decrease of 10,179 feet, in 12 minutes, covering 37 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 27R at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was made from the east, heading 265.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,313 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 27R was successful, with the touchdown point being 133 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 150 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -275 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 220°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,041 meters, which is 76% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 9 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,164 nautical miles, taking 459 minutes, and the aircraft used 61,752 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport, achieving a high score of 95.9%. The final approach to runway 27R was conducted from the east, with a heading of 265.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,313 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the touchdown point located 133 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 150 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -275 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more gently.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 220°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was also 5 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which likely contributed to the successful landing.
The runway length at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport is 2,692 meters, and the aircraft landed within 76% of this distance, covering a total landing distance of 2,041 meters. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the post-landing phase.
Overall, the landing was considered very good, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating a high level of proficiency in terms of speed, rate, and alignment.
