Work on the flare
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,820 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,820 m of the 3,285 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 505 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 07C at Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH). The takeoff distance was 1,978 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 182 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and winds of 12 knots at 99 degrees. The crosswind was 6 knots, and the headwind was 10 knots. The enroute climb started 2 miles north of Tung Chung, where the aircraft climbed from 1,006 feet above sea level to 34,220 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,214 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 179 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 25 miles southwest of RCLM Dongsha Island Airport, Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and lasted for 243 minutes, covering a distance of 2,021 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent another enroute climb, this time from 34,306 feet to 36,401 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,095 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed at a new location, lasting for 206 minutes and covering a distance of 1,706 nautical miles.
The aircraft then underwent another enroute climb, this time from 36,390 feet to 38,263 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,873 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed once more, lasting for 138 minutes and covering a distance of 1,114 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 25 miles west of Dargaville, New Zealand, where the aircraft descended from 36,974 feet to 27,678 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,296 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed once more, lasting for 2 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 20 miles southwest of Ruawai, New Zealand, where the aircraft descended from 27,367 feet to 1,312 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,055 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 76 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23L at Auckland International Airport (NZAA) began from the east, heading 251.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,285 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 23L took place with a runway length of 3,285 meters. The threshold height was slightly above target at 57 feet above ground level, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 154 knots.
The touchdown point was 88 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -356 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and winds of 22 knots at 200 degrees. The crosswind was 17 knots, and the headwind was 14 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,739 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Auckland International Airport, with a score of 92.1%. The final approach to runway 23L was initiated from the east, heading 251.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 3,285 meters.
The threshold height at 57 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating a minor deviation in the aircraft's descent. Similarly, the threshold speed of 154 knots was also slightly above the target, suggesting that the aircraft may have been slightly faster than desired during the approach. The touchdown point was 88 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 144 knots was a little fast, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -356 feet per minute (fpm).
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C, with a wind speed of 22 knots at 200°. The crosswind component was 17 knots, while the headwind component was 14 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,739 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway length. This suggests that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance, but may have been slightly longer than desired. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown position misalignment.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the target parameters. These deviations may have been due to a combination of factors, including weather conditions, pilot error, or aircraft performance. However, the aircraft was able to safely land and stop within a reasonable distance, with a score of 92.1%.
