MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Nothing to change in the speed, the height or the flare. Keep the landing attitude held until the mains are on, so the aircraft is not let down onto the runway in the last moment.
What happened: The touchdown rate was 238 fpm. Nothing before it explains that: threshold speed and height were within limits and the flare was flown normally.
Watch for: Touchdown rate: a little less than 238 fpm next time
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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 3,774 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 482 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-700 taxied from the parking area to runway 05C at HECA Cairo International Airport in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 05C, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 144 kt and departed after using 1,779 m of runway, representing 44 % of the available length; ambient temperature was 39 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 299°, a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north-east of HECA, with the airplane climbing from 1,367 ft asl to 39,633 ft asl, an altitude gain of 38,266 ft achieved in 44 minutes while covering 333 nm.
The first cruise segment began 10 miles north-west of Pomos (Paphos District, Cyprus) and continued for 176 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 1,343 nm at level altitude.
Descent was initiated 13 miles north-east of Poddor'ye (Novgorod Oblast, Russia), descending from 39,989 ft asl to 2,510 ft asl, a loss of 37,479 ft in 20 minutes and traversing 135 nm.
A brief second cruise started 4 miles north-east of UKIP Kipen' Airport (Leningrad Oblast, Russia), lasting 2 minutes and covering 9 nm before the final approach.
The final approach to runway 10R at ULLI Pulkovo Airport was flown from the west on a heading of 107.0°, intercepting the approach at 4 nm and 1,312 ft agl.
Landing on runway 10R, which is 3,774 m long, was executed with a threshold speed of 126 kt; touchdown occurred 62 m beyond the touchdown zone at 118 kt, with a smooth touchdown rate of minus 116 fpm and very good alignment; local conditions were 20 °C, wind 4 kt from 182°, a 4 kt cross-wind and a 1 kt head-wind component; the total landing distance was 932 m, representing 25 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect as the aircraft decelerated to a stop.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,827 nm, required 250 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 10,018 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 began its final approach to runway 10R at ULLI Pulkovo Airport from the west on a heading of 107.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,312 ft agl, with a final-approach score of 100.0 %. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 126 kt; ambient temperature was 20 °C with wind 4 kt at 182 °, giving a 4 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt headwind component.
Touchdown occurred 62 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 118 kt that was good and a smooth touchdown rate of minus 116 fpm; runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 932 m, representing 25 % of the 3,774 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
Maintain the excellent speed and alignment control while aiming to touch down nearer the designated touchdown zone to further optimise runway usage; the current performance already meets the highest standards.
