I was very tired at the flight of 12 hours. vs Touchdown to land

The two phrases are not directly comparable as they are unrelated. The first phrase is a sentence describing a feeling of tiredness after a long flight, while the second phrase seems to be a fragment related to an aircraft landing. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to compare them for correctness.
