Narrative:
It was a normal approach to runway 1L at iad. I was carrying extra airspeed due to gusty conditions reported on the ATIS (280 degrees at 12 KTS gusting to 17 KT). Everything was normal until approximately 20 ft afl where I should have raised the nose and arrested the descent, but did not. This resulted in a hard flat lnd. Subsequently, 2 flight attendants filed injury reports. Supplemental information from acn 492858: approach to runway 1L at iad was normal. While flying a visual with ILS backup, the first officer was 1 DOT high at 300 ft, on speed, sinking 700 FPM. Passing 30 ft, I said pull up and we touched down as 'up came out.' touchdown was wings level, on centerline at reference plus 6 KTS at 700 FPM. First officer said she was fixated on end of runway and misjudged it. No flare was initiated. Supplemental information from acn 493841: went to the cockpit to inform captain of injured crew members. One flight attendant in mid cabin and 2 flight attendants in first class cabin injured. 2 aft crew members went to emergency room. 2 other flight attendants went to doctor after the next day. 2 flight attendants fine after a couple days of rest.
