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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
At the 500 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,339 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,339 m of the 3,494 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,093 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 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 01 at Košice International Airport (LZKZ) and took off with a takeoff distance of 1,074 meters, which was 35% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 142 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb from 1,814 feet above sea level to 33,645 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,831 feet in 14 minutes, covering 73 nautical miles. The local weather conditions during this time were a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 3 knots at 94°. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles east of Hrochot, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 2 miles northwest of Sliač Airport (LZSL) and descended from 34,271 feet above sea level to 5,977 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,294 feet in 14 minutes, covering 78 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles south of Gbely, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started overhead Altlichtenwarth Gliderfield (LOAR) and descended from 5,963 feet above sea level to 5,031 feet above sea level, a decrease of 932 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles southeast of Poysdorf, and lasted for 13 minutes, covering 31 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11 at Vienna International Airport (LOWW) was from the west, heading 116.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,309 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 11 was successful, with a touchdown point 582 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was good, but the touchdown rate was fair at -296 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions during the landing were a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 343°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the tailwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 2,162 meters, which was 62% of the runway. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 18.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 23.3 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 227 nautical miles, taking 63 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,576 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft in question, an E195, successfully landed at Vienna International Airport (LOWW) on runway 11. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 116.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,309 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 70.0%.
Upon landing, the aircraft's threshold height was found to be excessively above the target, indicating that the aircraft touched down higher than desired. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 141 knots, which is a relatively acceptable value. The touchdown point was located 582 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation. The touchdown speed of 126 knots was deemed good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down at a relatively low speed. The touchdown rate of -296 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not as smooth as desired.
The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned from the centerline by 18.8 meters, which could have contributed to the deviation from the designated touchdown zone. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 343°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. These conditions were relatively favorable for landing.
The total landing distance of 2,162 meters was 62% of the runway length, which is a relatively acceptable value. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned from the centerline by 23.3 meters, indicating that the aircraft's rollout was not as smooth as desired. Overall, the landing performance of the E195 was satisfactory, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of threshold height and runway alignment.
