What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 49 %, Threshold height at 66 ft agl was above target at 76 %, −0.78 points
Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 34.2 ft right at 73 %, −0.36 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -420 fpm at 89 %, −0.17 points

Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 34 ft off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Apply steady, continuous back pressure through the flare to arrest the sink smoothly and hold the normal profile, rather than letting it drift.

What happened: The flare did not hold its target profile, with the sink most arrested at 0.5 ft, and this flight then touched down at 256 fpm of sink - a firm arrival. An unsettled flare profile like this usually carries through to a firmer touchdown.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smooth, steadily decreasing sink rate through the flare to touchdown.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

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.

Landing on runway 23 at KBUF Buffalo Niagara International Airport in the Boeing 737-800
Landing Score 93.39 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KBUF Buffalo Niagara International Airport, with a score of 93.4%. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, heading 224.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,318 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 1,408 feet, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, indicating a slightly harder landing than desired. The touchdown rate of -420 feet per minute (fpm) was also considered hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a bit of a jolt upon touchdown.

Despite the slightly faster touchdown speed and harder touchdown rate, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 64°F and a light wind of 2 knots from 180°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

The total landing distance of 5,003 feet was 66% of the available runway length of 7,571 feet, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining to safely stop after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well-controlled and stable during the rollout phase.

Overall, while there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and rate, the landing was considered successful, with a high score of 93.4%. The aircraft's performance and handling were well within acceptable limits, and the pilots demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the landing phase.
