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: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
At the 300 ft gate: no landing flap set and off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,230 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,230 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 207 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Bonanza G36 aircraft departed from runway 25C at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF), rolling down the runway for a takeoff distance of 1,136 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 88 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 0 knots from a direction of 359 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of Raunheim, a town located in the state of Hessen, Germany. The climb started from an altitude of 1,819 feet above sea level and reached a height of 2,399 feet above sea level, an increase of 581 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
After completing the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Hofheim am Taunus, another town in the state of Hessen, Germany. This phase of the flight lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 18 at Reichelsheim Airfield (EDFB) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 146.0 degrees at an altitude of 866 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 177 degrees.
The aircraft landed on runway 18 at Reichelsheim Airfield, which had a length of 1,230 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 84 knots, at 84 kt. The touchdown distance was good at 205 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 76 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -109 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 455 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent after touchdown. The total flight distance was 38 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 15 minutes. The aircraft used 10 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Bonanza G36 aircraft successfully landed at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield, achieving a score of 94.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 146.0° at 1 nautical mile and 866 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 18, which has a length of 1,230 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 84 knots, which may have been due to various factors such as wind resistance or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother landing.
The touchdown distance was good at 205 meters, indicating that the aircraft landed within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. However, the touchdown speed of 76 knots was a little fast, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. The touchdown rate was smooth at -109 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft touched down gently on the runway.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 7°C and a headwind of 6 knots at 177°. There was no crosswind, which made the landing even smoother.
The total landing distance was 455 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft landed smoothly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Bonanza G36 aircraft performed well during the landing, achieving a high score of 94.6%. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth and efficient landing, which was made possible by favorable weather conditions and a well-maintained aircraft.
