Improve the touchdown
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.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,939 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 335 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 27L at EDDV Hannover Airport in 4 minutes, covering approximately 1 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 27L, achieving a take-off distance of 1,296 m (55 % of the runway) and lifting off at 153 kt; ambient conditions were 14 °C with a 1-kt wind from 119° and a 1-kt tailwind component.
Climb began overhead Hannover, rising from 1,248 ft asl to 39,008 ft asl-a gain of 37,760 ft-over 38 minutes while traversing 293 nm.
Cruise commenced 1 mile north of Lipnice nad Sazavou and continued for 144 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 1,156 nm.
Descent started 84 mi southwest of Chlorakas, descending from 38,999 ft asl to 37,608 ft asl, a loss of 1,392 ft in 2 minutes and over 13 nm.
A brief level segment followed 80 mi southwest of Chlorakas, lasting 2 minutes and covering another 13 nm.
The next climb began 81 mi southwest of Paphos, gaining 1,367 ft from 37,609 ft asl to 38,976 ft asl in 3 minutes while flying 27 nm.
Subsequent cruise started 89 mi southwest of Koloni, persisting for 25 minutes and adding 235 nm to the flight path.
Descent resumed 24 mi east of Z10W Bir Hasanah, dropping from 39,005 ft asl to 3,231 ft asl-a reduction of 35,774 ft-in 18 minutes across 137 nm.
A short cruise segment followed 12 mi east of HEDH Dhahab Airport, lasting 3 minutes and covering 12 nm.
Final approach to runway 15 at OENN Neom Bay Airport was executed from the north, on a heading of 155.0° at 4 nm and 1,233 ft agl, with local weather of 28 °C, wind 5 kt from 321°, 1 kt crosswind and a 5-kt tailwind.
Touchdown occurred before the threshold at 123 kt with a vertical speed of minus 93 fpm; the touchdown point was offset by 287.4 m from the centreline, and the total landing roll measured 674 m (35 % of the runway).
Rollout alignment remained excessively off-centre by 287.3 m from the runway centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking stand in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,894 nm, lasted 243 minutes, and consumed 11,300 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 15 at OENN Neom Bay Airport was conducted from the north on a heading of 155.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,233 ft agl. Local weather was 28 °C with wind 5 kt from 321 °, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt tail-wind component.
During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft touched down before the runway threshold. Touchdown speed was 123 kt and was described as good, while the vertical touchdown rate was excellent at -93 fpm.
Touchdown occurred before the threshold with the aircraft aligned excessively off the centreline by 287.4 m. The speed of 123 kt and the -93 fpm rate matched the earlier description of good speed and excellent rate.
Rollout alignment remained excessively misaligned by 287.3 m from the centreline. The total landing distance used was 674 m, representing 35 % of the runway length.
To improve future performance, focus on achieving centreline alignment both at touchdown and through rollout and aim to touch down near the standard 300 m (1,000 ft) aim point down the runway. Maintaining a stable approach will support these adjustments and help raise the overall score.
