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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,348 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,348 m of the 4,036 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,053 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777-300 aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 27R at London Heathrow Airport, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 187 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 13 knots blowing from a direction of 290 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 12 knots. The aircraft's takeoff distance was 1,594 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway length.
After departing from London Heathrow, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting overhead the town of Harmondsworth in Greater London, England. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,082 feet above sea level to 5,110 feet, an increase of 4,028 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 40 nautical miles, starting overhead the town of Weybridge in Surrey, England. The aircraft continued to climb, this time from an altitude of 5,565 feet to 28,945 feet, an increase of 23,380 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 517 minutes and covered a distance of 4,559 nautical miles, starting 1 mile south west of Machelen-aan-de-Leie in Flanders, Belgium. The aircraft continued to climb once more, this time from an altitude of 32,414 feet to 37,983 feet, an increase of 5,569 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase once again, which lasted for 350 minutes and covered a distance of 924 nautical miles, starting at a location with a latitude of 13.9024094 and a longitude of 89.0063917.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 5 miles north east of Teluk Intan in Perak, Malaysia. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 37,672 feet to 1,381 feet, a decrease of 36,291 feet in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 32R at Kuala Lumpur International Airport was made from the south east, with the aircraft heading 326.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,324 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The aircraft landed on runway 32R, which had a length of 4,036 meters. The threshold height at 74 feet above ground level was well above the target, and the threshold speed was good at 141 knots. The touchdown point was 633 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -130 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 2,263 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway length.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5,772 nautical miles, taking a total of 713 minutes and consuming 95,756 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (WMKK) on runway 32R. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 326.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,324 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course and speed throughout the approach, ultimately touching down on the runway at a speed of 127 knots.
The touchdown point was located 633 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -130 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled and the pilots were able to maintain a stable approach.
The threshold height at 74 feet agl was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed of 141 knots was good. This suggests that the pilots were able to maintain a steady speed and altitude during the approach. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C. The total landing distance of 2,263 meters was 56% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop safely.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach and rollout phases.
