Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 89 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 89 ft, 44 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,007 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,007 m of the 3,527 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 780 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 35 at LPPR Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport. The takeoff distance was 945 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 162 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 31°C temperature and a wind speed of 3 knots at 291 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots. After takeoff, the enroute climb started 2 miles northwest of Moreira, Portugal, where the aircraft climbed from 1,159 feet above sea level to 36,137 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,978 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 98 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started 9 miles northeast of LPMU Mogadouro Airfield, Mogadouro, Portugal, and lasted for 21 minutes, covering a distance of 171 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 1 mile southeast of Banares, Spain, where it climbed from 36,231 feet above sea level to 38,221 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,989 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 27 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started 4 miles southeast of Elburgo, Spain, and lasted for 62 minutes, covering a distance of 456 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles northwest of Bonneuil-les-Eaux, France, where it descended from 38,090 feet above sea level to 30,166 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,924 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 51 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started overhead Henin-Beaumont, France, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent overhead Lezennes, France, where it descended from 29,842 feet above sea level to 22,463 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,379 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then started 1 mile east of Aarsele, Belgium, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final enroute descent overhead Kaprijke, Belgium, where it descended from 22,127 feet above sea level to 1,239 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,888 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was from the north, heading 183.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,238 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 18R was successful, with a touchdown point 371 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 139 knots, which was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at -276 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 20°C temperature and a wind speed of 8 knots at 240 degrees. The crosswind was 7 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,933 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, with a final approach score of 91.7%. The aircraft was approaching runway 18R from the north, heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,238 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed at a speed of 139 kt, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 144 kt. However, the touchdown rate of -276 fpm was considered fair, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down relatively quickly after touchdown. The touchdown point was 371 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilot's alignment during the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 8 kt at 240°. The crosswind component was 7 kt, while the headwind component was 4 kt, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment.
The total landing distance was 1,933 meters, which is 55% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown effectively. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a high score of 91.7%. However, there are some minor areas for improvement, such as maintaining a slower touchdown speed and improving the alignment during the landing.
