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 six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,787 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,787 m of the 3,894 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 944 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A Boeing 777-200ER departed from Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX) on runway 25R, taking off with a distance of 1,468 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 166 knots, with a local temperature of 28°C and a gentle tailwind of 2 knots. As the aircraft departed the Los Angeles area, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,073 feet above sea level to 32,992 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 153 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 32,992 feet for 33 minutes, covering 272 nautical miles. This was followed by a series of climbs and level cruises, with the aircraft ascending to higher altitudes and then maintaining those altitudes for extended periods. Notably, the aircraft climbed from 33,387 feet to 34,706 feet in just 2 minutes, covering 14 nautical miles. The level cruise phase that followed lasted for 190 minutes, covering 1,564 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb and cruise, eventually reaching an altitude of 38,994 feet, before beginning its descent into Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport (LIRF).
The final approach to runway 16L at LIRF was made from the north, with the aircraft touching down 522 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 121 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -147 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 1,700 meters, accounting for 44% of the runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 6 minutes to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 5,738 nautical miles, taking 698 minutes, and the aircraft used 80,397 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-200ER touched down on runway 16L at LIRF Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, demonstrating a satisfactory approach quality. The aircraft descended from 1,276 ft agl to 57 ft agl, slightly above the target threshold height, while maintaining a threshold speed of 133 kt, which was within acceptable limits. The approach was conducted from the north, heading 163.0°, and the aircraft landed on the runway, which has a length of 3,894 m.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 121 kt, which was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -147 fpm. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.0 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 7 °C and a wind of 2 kt at 60°, contributed to a minimal crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 0 kt. The total landing distance was 1,700 m, which accounted for 44% of the runway length.
The rollout phase was notable for its excellent alignment, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 777-200ER scored 88.0%, reflecting a good balance of approach quality, touchdown characteristics, and rollout alignment.
