Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,710 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 388 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320neo taxied from the parking area to runway 01L at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport in 5 minutes, covering 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 01L the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 154 kt, using a takeoff distance of 1,436 m which represented 44 % of the runway; ambient temperature was 6 °C with wind 2 kt from 239° and a 2 kt crosswind component plus a 1 kt tailwind.
The initial climb began 1 mile north of ESSA, climbing from 1,061 ft asl to 37,592 ft asl - an increase of 36,531 ft - over 23 minutes while covering 148 nm.
Level cruise commenced 1 mile south of Sundhultsbrunn and continued for 73 minutes, during which 570 nm were flown.
A second climb started 1 mile west of Lembeek, raising the aircraft from 38,365 ft asl to 38,815 ft asl - a gain of 451 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 12 nm.
The subsequent cruise segment began 1 mile east of Masnuy-Saint-Jean and lasted 107 minutes, traversing 824 nm.
Descent commenced overhead Assafarge, descending from 38,998 ft asl to 8,000 ft asl - a loss of 30,997 ft - in 16 minutes and covering 103 nm.
A brief cruise followed 5 miles south-west of Colares, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 6 nm.
The next descent began 6 miles south-west of Cascais, dropping from 7,999 ft asl to 1,639 ft asl - a decrease of 6,360 ft - in 8 minutes and covering 25 nm.
On final approach to runway 02 at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport the aircraft descended from 1,324 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 101 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 02 was achieved with a threshold speed of 135 kt; touchdown occurred 390 m down the runway at 132 kt with a vertical speed of minus 182 fpm and perfect alignment, while local weather reported a temperature of 27 °C, wind 2 kt from 310°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 1 kt headwind.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,025 m, representing 28 % of the 3,710 m runway, and the aircraft remained aligned perfectly during the deceleration phase.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total the flight covered 1,698 nm, required 241 minutes, and consumed 8,020 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320neo conducted a stabilised approach to runway 02 at LPPT Humberto Delgado Airport, with the approach assessment recorded as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate and gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The aircraft descended from 1,324 ft agl to 35 ft agl in 101 seconds while maintaining the final-approach parameters, and the local weather was temperature 27 °C, wind 2 kt at 310°, crosswind 2 kt and headwind 1 kt.
During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was judged good and the threshold speed was good at 135 kt. The flare produced a touchdown distance that was good at 390 m, a touchdown speed that was good at 132 kt, a touchdown rate that was good at minus 182 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft aligned perfectly on the centreline, touching down at the measured 390 m point, at 132 kt and with a vertical speed of minus 182 fpm, confirming the good speed and rate recorded for the phase.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,025 m, representing 28 % of the 3,710 m runway, and runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration.
Maintain the current precision on speed and descent profiling while continuing to monitor the touchdown point to keep it consistently near the 300 m aim point, ensuring the already excellent alignment and rate are preserved.
