Flight Score
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 six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,830 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,830 ft of the 12,362 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,778 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report

The touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was firm at -338 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 21 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°F and a wind speed
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, achieving a score of 91.2%. The final approach to runway 07R was initiated from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed of 146 knots being maintained. The touchdown point was located 430 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the recommended area. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -338 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a smooth and stable landing.
Despite the successful touchdown, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 21 feet from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off-centre by 40 feet. However, these deviations did not significantly impact the overall landing performance.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 59°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The total landing distance of 5,582 feet was 45% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
Overall, the Boeing 777F aircraft demonstrated a good landing performance at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, with a score of 91.2%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance, the aircraft's touchdown speed, touchdown rate, and overall landing distance were all within acceptable ranges.
