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 55 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 55 ft, 9.8 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The rest of the report
This flight began with a Boeing 737-600 aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KBZN Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, a process that took only 3 minutes and covered approximately 1 mile. Once ready for departure, the aircraft took off from runway 30, with a takeoff distance of 998 meters, which represented 36% of the runway length. It achieved liftoff speed of 139 knots within a matter of seconds.
During the initial stages of flight, the Boeing 737-600 encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and wind speeds of 2 knots from a northerly direction. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, with 1 knot in each direction. This favorable wind scenario contributed to a smooth departure from the airport.
As the aircraft entered enroute climb, it began ascending from a starting altitude of 5,484 feet above sea level to reach 39,183 feet, an impressive increase of 33,699 feet, within a mere 35 minutes. This climb phase took the plane 232 nautical miles north of Belgrade, Montana. Following this phase, the Boeing 737-600 entered into an enroute level cruise, which started 24 miles southeast of WY34 Bridger Creek Airport Lysite, Wyoming, and lasted for 107 minutes, covering an impressive 1,245 nautical miles.
The next segment of the flight saw the aircraft begin its enroute descent, which started 1 mile east of Daleville, Alabama. This descent phase lasted a mere 9 minutes and saw a decrease in altitude from 39,136 feet to 1,977 feet, a staggering decrease of 37,159 feet. The descent distance was 92 nautical miles. The Boeing 737-600 then entered into a brief second level cruise, starting 3 miles east of Tallahassee, Florida, and lasting just 2 minutes, covering only 4 nautical miles.
As the flight reached its final stages, the aircraft began its approach to runway 27 at KTLH Tallahassee Regional Airport. This final approach was flown from a northeasterly direction, heading 270 degrees, and started at 4 nautical miles from the airport, at an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 397 meters, which is a relatively short distance and an indication of good pilot skill. The touchdown speed was 110 knots, and the touchdown rate was a smooth -141 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and wind speeds of 2 knots from a southerly direction. While the crosswind component was 2 knots, there was minimal headwind of 0 knots during the landing.
The aircraft took just over 159 minutes to complete the flight, covering a total distance of 1,579 nautical miles and consuming 8,413 kilograms of fuel in the process. Once landed, the Boeing 737-600 began taxiing to the parking area, a process that took less than 1 minute and covered approximately 1 mile. Overall, the flight demonstrated a high level of efficiency, with the aircraft and its pilots performing well in a range of different flight conditions.
The aircraft in question, a Boeing 737-600, successfully landed at KTLH Tallahassee Regional Airport, scoring an impressive 99.9%. The approach began at an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway, with the aircraft heading due east (270.0°) towards runway 27. The good threshold height observed suggests that the aircraft maintained a stable and controlled approach from the initial stages.
Upon landing, the aircraft had a threshold speed of 121 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. This indicates a slightly faster-than-anticipated landing, which is not uncommon. However, the speed was still well within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 397 meters was also considered satisfactory, and the speed at touch-down was recorded at 110 knots, which is a good and stable speed. The touchdown rate of -141 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth and controlled, suggesting that the crew managed to cushion the aircraft's impact with the runway effectively.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the crew executed the landing flawlessly in terms of pitch and roll. The local weather conditions were generally favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and light winds of 2 kt at 10°. The absence of any crosswind or headwind meant that the crew had to contend only with the wind's very slight influence.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 810 meters, which accounts for only 33% of the runway length. This suggests that the aircraft decelerated efficiently and maintained control throughout the rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, highlighting the crew's excellent control and piloting skills. Overall, the successful landing of the Boeing 737-600 at KTLH Tallahassee Regional Airport demonstrates the crew's expertise and the aircraft's capabilities in handling a smooth, controlled landing.
