See Arrival Final 1
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,763 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 528 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport, taking approximately 8 minutes to cover a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 26R, with the aircraft lifting off at a speed of 162 knots after covering 73% of the runway's length.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 31°C temperature and winds of 2 knots at 161°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started shortly after departure, 1 mile west of the airport, and saw the aircraft ascend from 3,206 feet above sea level to 24,109 feet above sea level, an increase of 20,903 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 57 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 11 miles east of Baker, California, and lasted for 12 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 76 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 5 miles east of the Palisades Ranch Airport in Helendale, California, and saw the aircraft descend from 24,163 feet above sea level to 1,992 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,171 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading at 91.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,254 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was initiated at 3 feet above ground level. The aircraft eventually landed on runway 08, with a runway length of 1,763 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots.
The touchdown point was 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was firm at -349 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.4 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 21°C temperature and calm winds.
The total landing distance was 1,220 meters, which was 69% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centreline. The total flight distance was 216 nautical miles, taking approximately 60 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 2,464 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport, achieving a score of 96.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 91.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,254 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, ensuring a good threshold height and speed, with the threshold speed being 139 kt.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the designated area. However, the touchdown speed of 130 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -349 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.4 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and no wind, resulting in a crosswind and headwind of 0 kt. This ideal weather contributed to a smooth landing. The total landing distance of 1,220 meters was 69% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centerline, which may require further attention from the pilot to maintain a precise alignment during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a precise alignment during the rollout phase.
