Work on the flare
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.
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 1,961 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,961 m of the 2,480 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 877 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF), with a takeoff distance of 1,220 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 179 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 1°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot at 240 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, while the tailwind was 1 knot. After departing from Frankfurt, the enroute climb started overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,360 feet above sea level to 37,492 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,131 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 2 miles south of Einbeck, Germany, and lasting 58 minutes, covering a distance of 439 nautical miles. The enroute descent then began 4 miles north of Loftahammar, Sweden, with the aircraft descending from 37,362 feet above sea level to 3,337 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,025 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles north of Karsta, Sweden, and lasting 63 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 26 at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (ESSA) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 255.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,270 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 26 was successful, with the touchdown point being 465 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 142 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was firm at -379 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.9 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 4°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 210 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,884 meters, which accounted for 76% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 680 nautical miles, taking 172 minutes, and the aircraft used 20,109 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, with a final approach score of 89.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 255.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 26, which has a length of 2,480 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 145 knots, demonstrating that the pilot had maintained control and was on track for a smooth landing. The touchdown point was 465 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly further than ideal but still within acceptable limits.
The touchdown speed of 142 knots was good, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively before touching down. The touchdown rate of -379 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the aircraft had a controlled descent and did not experience any significant loss of altitude during the landing.
However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 5.9 meters off-centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 210°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind component was also 1 knot. These conditions were favorable for the landing, and the pilot was able to execute a smooth and controlled touchdown.
The total landing distance was 1,884 meters, which is 76% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively and had a good control of the aircraft during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and had brought it to a stop safely.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
