Reduce your height at the threshold
Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

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 1,853 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,853 m of the 3,291 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 685 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Ben Gurion International Airport (LLBG) in Tel Aviv, Israel, the Boeing 777-200ER began its journey down runway 26, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 167 kt after a 2,108 m takeoff distance that utilized 69% of the available runway. The aircraft lifted off into a local weather environment characterized by a temperature of 22 °C and a negligible wind of 3 kt at 0 °.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it traversed a significant portion of the Mediterranean region, passing over various geographical points. The enroute climb phase began overhead Hemed, Israel, where the aircraft ascended from 1,047 ft to 35,996 ft in 21 minutes, covering 131 nm. The subsequent level cruise phase lasted 72 minutes, during which the aircraft maintained a steady altitude and covered 570 nm. The climb phase resumed 19 miles west of Myrina, Greece, where the aircraft ascended to 38,001 ft in just 3 minutes, covering 29 nm. The final level cruise phase started 8 miles east of Ouranoupolis, Greece, and lasted 123 minutes, covering 972 nm. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent phase, descending from 37,732 ft to 1,279 ft in 30 minutes, covering 161 nm.
The Boeing 777-200ER touched down on runway 18C at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM) after a total landing distance of 1,776 m, which represented 62% of the available runway. The touchdown point was 273 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 137 kt, which was within acceptable limits. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, completing its journey after a total flight distance of 1,873 nm and a fuel consumption of 28,505 kg. The entire flight lasted 272 minutes, with a taxiing time of 12 minutes from the parking area to the runway and 7 minutes from the runway to the parking area.
The Boeing 777-200ER touched down on runway 18C at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the north. The aircraft's final approach was conducted at a heading of 183.0°, 4 nautical miles from the threshold, and at an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level. The approach quality was good, with a threshold speed of 145 knots, which was within the target range. However, the threshold height at 69 feet above ground level was slightly above the desired level.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it touched down at a speed of 137 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration. The touchdown point was located 273 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which was slightly beyond the ideal position. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 7.0 meters from the centreline, although the rollout alignment was very good.
The total landing distance of 1,776 meters was 62% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25°C and a headwind of 4 knots, contributed to a smooth and controlled rollout. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 87.6%.
