MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power sooner on final so you cross the threshold at 124 kt, carrying that speed into the flare.
What happened: Crossing the threshold at 133 kt, 9 kt above 124 kt, usually leaves extra energy that lets the sink come back after the flare has arrested it, and that returning sink usually carries through to a firm touchdown.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 124 kt at the threshold.
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,428 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 440 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-700 taxied from the parking area to runway 05 at ENKR Kirkenes Airport, covering less than 1 nm in 2 minutes.
During the departure roll on runway 05, the aircraft accelerated over 831 m, representing 41 % of the available runway, and rotated at 127 kt. Ambient conditions were 1 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 330°, a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
Climb commenced overhead ENKR, climbing from 1,300 ft asl to 40,928 ft asl - a gain of 39,627 ft - in 45 minutes while traversing 360 nm.
The first cruise segment began at latitude 70.7276513, longitude 46.547759 and continued for 91 minutes, covering 770 nm at level flight.
Descent started 37 mi southeast of Karaul, reducing altitude from 40,634 ft asl to 2,507 ft asl - a loss of 38,126 ft - in 12 minutes and spanning 73 nm.
A brief level cruise followed 6 mi northwest of Kayyerkan, lasting 2 minutes and adding 6 nm to the flight path.
On final approach to runway 19 at UOOO Norilsk-Alykel Airport, the aircraft descended from 1,479 ft agl to 111 ft agl in 110 seconds and was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 19 was executed with a threshold speed of 134 kt, a touchdown distance of 440 m, a touchdown speed of 120 kt and a firm touchdown rate of minus 340 fpm; runway conditions included a length of 3,428 m, a good threshold height, temperature -1 °C, wind 4 kt from 200°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 4 kt head-wind component.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 844 m (25 % of the runway) and alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.
Taxi-in from the runway to the parking position required 1 minute and less than 1 nm of ground travel.
In total, the flight logged 1,216 nm, lasted 157 minutes and consumed 6,609 kg of fuel.
