Keep the wings level on final
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,986 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 439 m touchdown sits inside 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 approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 17 at Cherif Al Idrissi Airport. The takeoff distance was 849 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 146 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees. There was no crosswind or headwind. As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of Imzouren, Morocco, and ascended from 1,152 feet above sea level to 38,978 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,827 feet in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 152 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 2 miles north of Bedar, Spain, and lasted for 92 minutes, covering a distance of 803 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 1 mile north of Ortenberg, Germany, and descended from 39,195 feet above sea level to 1,458 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,737 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 319 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25L at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport was made from the east, heading 250.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,297 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 441 meters, which was 20% of the runway length. The threshold speed was good at 123 knots, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 117 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -158 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at 200 degrees. There was a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 809 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,280 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 137 minutes. The aircraft used 8,256 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport on runway 25L, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 250.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,297 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach speed and threshold height were well within the acceptable parameters, with a threshold speed of 123 knots and a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly higher than desired, at 117 knots, but the touchdown distance of 441 meters was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -158 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.9 meters, which may require some adjustments in the approach procedure.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from 200°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was also 3 knots. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The total landing distance of 809 meters was within 20% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained control throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was brought to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
