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 1,679 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,679 m of the 3,192 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 324 m touchdown sits inside 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 27 at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,887 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 192 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of -13°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 239°.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,902 feet above sea level to 30,292 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,390 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles. The climb started 1 mile south of Hebron, Kentucky, and continued until it reached the desired altitude. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 170 minutes and covered a distance of 1,184 nautical miles. This phase started 2 miles north of the Indianapolis International Airport in Indiana.
The aircraft continued its journey, entering another enroute climb phase from 29,956 feet above sea level to 31,745 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,789 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles. This climb started 10 miles east of the La Ronge Seaplane Base in Saskatchewan, Canada. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 193 minutes and covered a distance of 1,356 nautical miles. This phase started 10 miles northwest of the La Ronge Forest Service Base in Saskatchewan, Canada.
The aircraft continued its journey, entering another enroute climb phase from 31,254 feet above sea level to 33,372 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,118 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles. This climb started 36 miles east of the Kavik Strip in Alaska, United States. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 233 minutes and covered a distance of 1,915 nautical miles. This phase started 9 miles northeast of the Kavik Strip in Alaska, United States.
The aircraft continued its journey, entering another enroute climb phase from 34,189 feet above sea level to 35,597 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,408 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. This climb started at a specific latitude and longitude. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 430 minutes and covered a distance of 815 nautical miles. This phase started at a specific latitude and longitude.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent phase from 35,551 feet above sea level to 2,997 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,554 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles. This descent started 31 miles south of Tieli in Heilongjiang Sheng, China. The aircraft then entered a short level cruise phase, which lasted for 6 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. This phase started 8 miles north of the Harbin Taiping International Airport in Harbin, Heilongjiang Sheng, China.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at the Harbin Taiping International Airport, flying from the northeast at a heading of 219.0° and at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,262 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -17°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 303°.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at ZYHB Harbin Taiping International Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north east, heading 219.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,262 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot's final approach to runway 23 was executed with precision, with a good threshold height and speed of 143 knots. The touchdown distance of 326 meters was also within acceptable limits, indicating a well-controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 141 knots was slightly faster than recommended, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate of -366 feet per minute (fpm).
Despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, the pilot maintained excellent control of the aircraft, ensuring a very good runway touchdown alignment. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of -17°C and a light wind of 2 knots from 303°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,604 meters, which accounted for 50% of the runway length, was also within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of skill and precision, demonstrating the pilot's ability to handle the Boeing 777-300 aircraft in a variety of conditions. The landing score of 98.0% reflects the high level of proficiency displayed by the pilot during this approach and landing.
