Flight Score
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 214 fpm.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.
Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 177 fpm.
See Arrival Landing
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,994 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 584 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 3 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 04 at Geneva Cointrin International Airport (LSGG). The takeoff distance was 1,609 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 30°C and winds of 4 knots at 59°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 3 knots. After departure, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead Ferney-Voltaire in France. The climb took 45 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 2,359 feet above sea level to 39,038 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,679 feet. The distance covered during this period was 335 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles west of Lupoglav in Istria, Croatia, and lasted for 98 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 791 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Goynuk in Turkey. The descent took 25 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 38,967 feet above sea level to 5,830 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,136 feet. The distance covered during this period was 182 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, which started 12 miles southwest of Mucur in Turkey and lasted for 3 minutes. During this brief period, the aircraft covered a distance of 12 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 11 at Nevşehir Kapadokya Airport (LTAZ) was made from the northwest, heading 118.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,252 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 11 at LTAZ was successful, with a touchdown point 169 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 130 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -202 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 27°C and winds of 2 knots at 230°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,162 meters, which is 39% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,327 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 180 minutes. The aircraft used 8,242 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LTAZ Nevşehir Kapadokya Airport, achieving a high score of 97.8%. The final approach to runway 11 was conducted from the north-west, with a heading of 118.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 142 knots. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, at a distance of 169 meters. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was within the acceptable range, but the touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute was only fair.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the tailwind component was even weaker at 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,162 meters was 39% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and rolling out smoothly on the runway. The high score of 97.8% reflects the pilot's skill and experience in navigating the aircraft to a safe and controlled landing.
