MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 96 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 96 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 775 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.
Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

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 1,909 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,909 m of the 4,044 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 775 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from the parking area to runway 01L at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen for 11 minutes, covering 5 nm. The take-off roll used 2,378 m of runway 01L (66 % of the runway) and rotation occurred at 196 kt. Local temperature was 6 °C.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl lasted 22 seconds, averaging 2,103 fpm and reaching 224 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 1,720 ft asl to 33,041 ft asl in 19 minutes, covering 129 nm while passing overhead Gardermoen.
Cruise was maintained at 33,300 ft asl for 330 minutes, covering 2,818 nm, beginning 3 mi north-west of Katrinedal.
Descent began from 33,936 ft asl to 4,907 ft asl in 21 minutes, covering 129 nm, starting 47 mi south-west of OIBK Kish International Airport. A level segment at 4,900 ft asl followed for 7 minutes, covering 26 nm, beginning 4 mi south of OMSJ Sharjah International Airport. The next descent from 4,768 ft asl to 1,358 ft asl took 7 minutes, covering 23 nm, starting 15 mi north-east of OMDE Dubai Airport.
Final approach to runway 30R at OMDB Dubai International Airport descended from 1,375 ft agl to 110 ft agl in 89 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration on final was landing gear down at 2,352 ft agl, 179 kt; final flap position 6 at 2,272 ft agl, 174 kt.
Landing on runway 30R (length 4,044 m) had a threshold height of 96 ft agl, which was significantly above target, while the threshold speed was good at 149 kt. The flare was described as good, with little round-out. Touchdown occurred 369 m beyond the touchdown zone at 143 kt, a good speed, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 310 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 9.1 m from the centreline. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,780 m (44 % of the runway). Runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.7 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area for 7 minutes, covering 1 nm. The total flight covered 3,138 nm in 398 minutes and used 60,156 kg of fuel. Local weather at Dubai was temperature 30 °C, wind 4 kt from 177°, crosswind 3 kt, tailwind 2 kt.
