Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 545 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 145 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 152 kt against a target of 145 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 145 kt at the threshold.
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,545 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,545 ft of the 8,987 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,125 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Washington Dulles International Airport (KIAD), the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 19L, it was cleared for departure, and after a takeoff distance of 5,911 feet, which utilized 51% of the available runway, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 158 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 85°F, with a wind of 8 knots at 196°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 7-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from KIAD, it began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile southwest of Floris, Virginia, and continued to ascend to a cruising altitude of 31,997 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,738 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 103 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started 3 miles north of VG06 Fulcher Family Farms Airport Amherst, lasting 36 minutes and covering 252 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 7 miles northwest of Six Mile, South Carolina, and descended from 31,890 feet to 2,352 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,538 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 113 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL), it began its final approach to runway 26R from the east, heading 270.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,323 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 26R, which had a length of 8,984 feet, with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 152 knots. The touchdown point was 778 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 146 knots, with a touchdown rate of -250 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total landing distance was 5,298 feet, which utilized 59% of the available runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 478 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 87 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 8,422 pounds.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport with a score of 97.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 270.0° at 4 nm and 1,323 ft above ground level. The final approach was characterized by good threshold height, allowing the crew to maintain a stable and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 152 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it touched down 778 ft beyond the touchdown zone, with a speed of 146 kt, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -250 fpm was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration. Notably, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the crew's skill and control during the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 84°F and a gentle headwind of 3 kt, contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 5,298 ft was 59% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was characterized by good approach quality, controlled touchdown, and precise alignment, resulting in a high score of 97.1%.
