Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 123 m past the target, landing at 580 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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 2,014 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,014 m of the 2,440 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 580 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 23, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 7 °C, a wind speed of 3 knots from 219 degrees, and a negligible crosswind component. With a liftoff speed of 155 knots, the aircraft successfully took off, covering a distance of 1,572 meters, which represented 49% of the available runway length.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile west of the departure airport. The climb phase was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, from 1,554 feet above sea level to 33,922 feet, a total increase of 32,368 feet, which was achieved in 16 minutes and covered a distance of 76 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 63 minutes and covered a distance of 411 nautical miles. The cruise phase was followed by a series of descents, the first of which started approximately 4 miles northeast of Knottsville, Kentucky, and resulted in a decrease in altitude of 29,039 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 100 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 20L at Nashville International Airport was initiated from the north, with the aircraft flying at an altitude of 1,231 feet above ground level and a heading of 198.0 degrees. The landing was characterized by a touchdown speed of 130 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and a touchdown rate of 37 feet per minute, which was considered perfect. The total landing distance was 1,934 meters, representing 79% of the available runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 611 nautical miles, and the aircraft used a total of 5,165 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which lasted for 116 minutes.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 20L at KBNA Nashville International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, characterized by a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft was established on the final approach from the north, heading 198.0° at 4 nm and 1,231 ft above ground level. The threshold height was good, allowing the crew to maintain a precise control over the aircraft's altitude.
As the aircraft touched down, it was at a speed of 130 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 164 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight over-run. However, the touchdown rate of 37 fpm was perfect, demonstrating the crew's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and maintain a controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13 °C and wind at 17 kt from 320°, contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,934 m was 79% of the runway length, indicating a satisfactory rollout performance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was scored 95.5%, reflecting the crew's proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing.
