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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,708 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 622 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 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 05 at Houari Boumediene Airport (DAAG) in Algeria. The takeoff distance was 711 meters, which accounted for 20% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and winds of 6 knots at 70 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The enroute climb began 1 mile east of Dar el Beida, Algeria, and saw the aircraft ascend from 1,083 feet above sea level to 39,993 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,910 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 124 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 53 miles south east of Cala d'Or, Spain, and lasted for 38 minutes, covering a distance of 310 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent overhead Robion, France, and descended from 39,982 feet above sea level to 2,111 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,871 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 109 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35R at Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport (LFLL) was made from the south, heading 355.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,308 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 35R was successful, with a runway length of 2,708 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 133 knots. However, the touchdown point was 205 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 124 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -201 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and winds of 3 knots at 300 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,376 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight distance was 551 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 87 minutes. The aircraft used 7,966 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport, achieving a high score of 96.7%. The final approach to runway 35R was conducted from the south, with the aircraft heading 355.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed smoothly, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 133 knots. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, located 205 meters down the runway. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was a bit faster than ideal, and the touchdown rate of -201 feet per minute was fair but not exceptional.
Despite these minor issues, the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.2 meters. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 11°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots from 300°. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 2 knots each.
The total landing distance of 1,376 meters was 51% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft coming to a stop safely and efficiently.
