Track the centreline 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 full 1,524 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 481 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 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 28R at OPIS Islamabad International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,241 meters, which was 34% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 172 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a headwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then took off and began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile west of OPIS Islamabad International Airport Attock. The climb was from an altitude of 2,767 feet above sea level to 35,162 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,395 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 71 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 9 miles east of Battagram, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan, and lasted for 88 minutes, covering a distance of 716 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 5 miles south of Ta'er Agezi, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. The climb was from an altitude of 35,296 feet above sea level to 37,300 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,004 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise then resumed, starting at a latitude of 38.4854657 and a longitude of 87.8058305. This cruise lasted for 184 minutes, covering a distance of 1,659 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 55 miles southeast of ZYCH Changhai Airport Changhai, Liaoning Sheng, China. The descent was from an altitude of 37,230 feet above sea level to 1,376 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,854 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 115 nautical miles.
The final approach to landing was made at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport, with the aircraft descending from 1,291 feet above ground level to 1,291 feet above ground level, a distance of 1 nautical mile. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -7 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 274 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The aircraft then approached touchdown, descending from 37 feet above ground level to 0 feet above ground level in 6 seconds. The touchdown speed was 136 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -113 feet per minute. The touchdown point was 68 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The landing rollout at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport took place at an altitude of 75 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 1,028 meters. 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 2,589 nautical miles, taking a total of 318 minutes, and the aircraft used 37,045 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport, achieving a high score of 81.6%. The final approach to landing was executed from 1 nautical mile to 1 nautical mile at an altitude of 1,291 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's descent from 37 feet agl to 0 feet agl was particularly noteworthy, with a decrease of 37 feet in just 6 seconds, demonstrating exceptional control and precision.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 136 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The touchdown rate of -113 feet per minute (fpm) further reinforced the notion that the landing was executed with precision and minimal impact. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, at a distance of 68 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 274 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot, which the aircraft successfully navigated during the landing rollout. The aircraft's altitude during the rollout was 75 feet above sea level, and the distance covered was 1,028 meters.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 777-300 at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport was a testament to the skill and expertise of the pilots, as well as the aircraft's capabilities. The high score achieved and the smooth execution of the landing demonstrate a high level of proficiency and control.
