Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 137 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 149 kt against a target of 137 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 137 kt at the threshold.
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,203 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 709 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport in São Paulo, Brazil, the Boeing 777F began its journey with a taxiing period of 5 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles to reach the runway. The aircraft then took off from runway 10L, utilizing 1,835 meters, or 52% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 177 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 26°C, with a gentle tailwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed a distance of 202 nautical miles in 27 minutes, reaching an elevation of 31,993 feet above sea level. The flight then entered a series of enroute level cruises, with the longest lasting 224 minutes and covering 2,007 nautical miles. The aircraft also underwent several climbs, including a notable ascent from 31,997 feet to 33,997 feet in just 5 minutes, covering 47 nautical miles. The flight's total distance covered was 5,449 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 659 minutes.
Upon approaching its destination, KLAS Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, the Boeing 777F began its descent, reducing its altitude from 37,695 feet to 3,395 feet in 24 minutes. The aircraft then executed a final approach to runway 26L, touching down at a speed of 137 knots and a distance of 297 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The total landing distance was 1,440 meters, or 45% of the runway. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey with a total fuel consumption of 91,333 kilograms.
The Boeing 777F touched down on runway 26L at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision throughout the descent. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 270.0° as it descended from 1,267 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The approach was characterized by a smooth touchdown rate of -117 feet per minute (fpm), which was indicative of a well-executed landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 137 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was located 297 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. However, the threshold speed of 149 knots was slightly above the target value, suggesting a slight delay in the touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase.
The Boeing 777F's rollout on runway 26L was characterized by perfect alignment, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline position throughout the entire distance. The total landing distance of 1,440 meters was 45% of the runway length, which was within the acceptable range. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 189°, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. Overall, the landing was scored 94.3%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot.
