Flight Score
Arrival
Carry more power on short final to hold 145 kt at the threshold instead of letting speed decay before the flare.
What happened: The threshold was crossed at 133 kt against a VREF of 145 kt, already below target, and the sink was fully arrested at 41 ft with speed continuing to bleed off - crossing the threshold slow like this usually carries forward into the aircraft settling on as the speed runs out, rather than flying onto the mains.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 145 kt on short final.
See Arrival Landing
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 2,182 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,182 m of the 3,492 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,192 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight began with a taxiing period from the parking spot to the runway at Washington Dulles International Airport, where the Boeing 777-300 aircraft prepared for departure. During this 7-minute period, the aircraft covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then took off from runway 19L at KIAD, reaching a liftoff speed of 194 knots as it cleared the 1,960-meter mark at a 56% utilization of the runway.
Once airborne, the aircraft entered a climb phase, ascending from 1,313 feet above sea level to 31,018 feet in just 18 minutes, a significant increase of 29,705 feet, and covering a distance of 112 nautical miles. This enroute climb segment concluded 1 mile north of Chantilly, Virginia. Following the initial climb, the aircraft began a lengthy level cruise lasting 151 minutes, during which it covered an impressive 1,278 nautical miles.
The flight then entered another series of climbing and level-cruise phases, with the aircraft ascending from various altitudes and covering significant distances in a relatively short period of time. After departing level cruise at a location 1 mile southwest of State College, Pennsylvania, the aircraft climbed quickly to a higher altitude and then returned to level cruise, maintaining a steady speed and altitude over long stretches.
The flight continued with multiple climbing and level cruise phases, each one marked by the aircraft ascending rapidly to a higher altitude or maintaining a steady altitude while covering vast distances. The aircraft climbed from 30,940 feet above sea level to 32,932 feet in just 3 minutes, and then it continued its journey, undertaking further altitude gains and lengthy level cruises.
The flight eventually took a turn towards Russia, and the aircraft climbed to its highest altitude yet, reaching as high as 36,559 feet above sea level. The last notable climbing phase took place 16 miles west of Kungur, Russia, where the aircraft ascended rapidly, gaining 1,604 feet in just 2 minutes. Following this climb, the aircraft entered its final descent phase, beginning 1 mile northeast of Arys, Turkistan, and descending from 36,872 feet to 2,768 feet above sea level.
Upon reaching its final destination, the aircraft executed a final approach to runway 26R at Tashkent International Airport, maintaining a heading of 262.08 degrees. The aircraft touched down 775 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 131 knots was considered good. The landing distance of 2,100 meters, accounting for 60% of the runway length, was in line with expectations. Upon touchdown, the aircraft taxied towards its parking spot, covering a short distance in just 2 minutes.
Overall, the flight covered an incredible distance of 5,700 nautical miles, using a total of 98,729 kilograms of fuel, while lasting for 717 minutes.
The Boeing 777-300 landed at UTTT Tashkent International Airport, scoring an impressive 89.8%. The aircraft was approaching runway 26R from the east at a heading of 262.0°, approximately 4 nautical miles away and at an altitude of 1,363 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon touchdown, the threshold height was satisfactory, however, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 133 knots. Despite this minor variation, the aircraft landed smoothly, with the touchdown point located at 775 meters beyond the touchdown zone. Notably, the touchdown speed was within the acceptable range at 131 knots.
The aircraft's descent rate was fair at -211 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting that some minor adjustments to the descent profile may have been necessary. However, the runway touchdown alignment was spot on, indicating excellent piloting skills in maintaining alignment with the runway.
The weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C and minimal wind, with a speed of just 1 knot from the north-east, which equates to no significant crosswind or tailwind, only a gentle breeze.
The total landing distance calculated was 2,100 meters, representing 60% of the runway length. This indicates that, although the aircraft was slightly short of ideal in terms of speed and rate, it landed safely with adequate runway remaining for further roll-out. The runway rollout alignment showed perfect control throughout, demonstrating the skill of the pilots in maintaining control and smoothly decelerating the aircraft post-landing.
