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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,041 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 640 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 25 at RJER Rishiri Airport, located in Rishiri, Hokkaido, Japan. The takeoff distance was 911 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 4°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 263°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of RJER Rishiri Airport. The climb took 36 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,162 feet above sea level to 37,535 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,373 feet. The distance covered during this period was 308 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started at a latitude of 47.7903513 and a longitude of 147.6592661, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 31 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 38,505 feet above sea level to 38,984 feet above sea level, an increase of 479 feet, in 2 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again at a latitude of 48.1740121 and a longitude of 148.7485774, and lasted for 91 minutes, covering 964 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 3 miles west of PAAT Casco Cove Coast Guard Station Attu, located in Alaska, United States. The descent took 9 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 38,505 feet above sea level to 2,618 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,886 feet. The distance covered during this period was 52 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again 15 miles southeast of PASY Eareckson Air Station Shemya, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 28 at PASY Eareckson Air Station was made from the east, with a heading of 288.0°, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,070 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 223 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 119 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -147 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 47°. The crosswind component was 13 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. The total landing distance was 1,148 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,388 nautical miles, which was covered in 150 minutes. The aircraft used 8,290 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at PASY Eareckson Air Station, achieving a high score of 95.9%. The final approach to runway 28 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 288.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,070 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 135 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 223 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 119 knots. This speed is also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -147 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting that the aircraft's engines were well-managed during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and winds of 15 knots at 47°. The crosswind component was 13 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. Despite these challenging conditions, the aircraft's pilot successfully managed the landing, achieving a very good runway touchdown alignment.
The total landing distance of 1,148 meters was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft's pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, with a very good runway rollout alignment. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft's pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
