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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,713 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,713 m of the 3,501 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 624 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 25R at DAOO Oran Es-Sénia (Ahmed Ben Bella) International Airport. The Boeing 737-800 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,402 meters, which was 40% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 310 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile southwest of the airport, rising from an altitude of 1,334 feet above sea level to 35,240 feet above sea level. This increase in altitude of 33,905 feet was achieved in just 21 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was a critical part of the flight, as it allowed the aircraft to reach its cruising altitude and begin its journey to the destination.
After completing the enroute climb, the aircraft entered its first level cruise phase, which started 46 miles southeast of La Union in Region de Murcia, Spain. This phase lasted for 35 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 250 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its first descent phase, which started 2 miles northeast of Bellaguarda in Catalunya, Spain. The descent from 35,238 feet above sea level to 9,966 feet above sea level was achieved in just 18 minutes, covering a distance of 106 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered its second level cruise phase, which started 1 mile northwest of Fabas in Occitanie, France. This phase was brief, lasting only 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its second descent phase, which started overhead Carbonne in Occitanie, France. The descent from 9,656 feet above sea level to 1,762 feet above sea level was achieved in just 7 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 32L at LFBO Toulouse-Blagnac Airport. The approach was from the southeast, with a heading of 323.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 32L was successful, with a touchdown point 212 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 142 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -144 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 30 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,636 meters, which was 47% of the runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 6 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 493 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 98 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 3,944 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was a successful one, with the aircraft performing well throughout its various phases.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport, LFBO, on runway 32L. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 323.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level. The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.0%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 142 knots, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 150 knots. However, the touchdown rate was smooth, at -144 feet per minute, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, showcasing the pilot's skill in navigating the aircraft to the center of the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 30°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The touchdown point was 212 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,636 meters, accounting for 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach and landing phases. The pilot's ability to manage the aircraft in challenging weather conditions and navigate it to the center of the runway is a testament to their skill and experience.
