Hold the approach angle
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.

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 1,964 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 283 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 24 at SUMU Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,080 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 146 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 178 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb overhead Paso de Carrasco, a location in the Departamento de Canelones, Uruguay. The climb started from an altitude of 1,121 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 19,956 feet above sea level, an increase of 18,834 feet in 9 minutes. The enroute climb covered a distance of 47 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 26 miles northeast of SAAI Punta Indio Naval Air Base Veronica, located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The descent started from an altitude of 19,961 feet above sea level and ended at an altitude of 1,597 feet above sea level, a decrease of 18,364 feet in 16 minutes. The enroute descent covered a distance of 69 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31 at SABE Jorge Newbery Airpark was made from the southeast, heading 303.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,572 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 31 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 281 meters, which is 56% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 127 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -251 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 30 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,092 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 124 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 32 minutes. The aircraft used 1,645 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at SABE Jorge Newbery Airpark, achieving a high score of 99.7%. The final approach to runway 31 was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 303.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,572 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 134 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 281 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach.
The touchdown speed of 127 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -251 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a slightly more stable descent. However, this did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway at the moment of touchdown. This is a critical aspect of landing, as it ensures that the aircraft is properly positioned for rollout and reduces the risk of veering off the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 30°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind component was zero, making it easier for the pilot to manage the aircraft's approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 1,092 meters was 56% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach and landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the centerline of the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 99.7%. The pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed, altitude, and alignment during the approach and landing phases was evident, and the favorable weather conditions contributed to a smooth and controlled landing.
