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 2,405 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 200 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Sevilla Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft reached the threshold of runway 09, it initiated its departure roll, accelerating down the 1,686-meter runway, which was utilized at 50% of its length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 153 knots, overcoming the local headwind of 9 knots and crosswind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,086 feet above sea level to 37,000 feet, a vertical gain of 35,913 feet, in just 20 minutes and covering 126 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 35 miles south of Olhao, Portugal, and lasted for 63 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 461 nautical miles. The cruise phase was punctuated by a series of descents, the first of which began 65 miles northeast of Caleta de Sebo, Canary Islands, and saw the aircraft descend from 36,994 feet to 6,319 feet in 21 minutes and covering 126 nautical miles. The final descent phase started 25 miles southeast of Tuineje, Canary Islands, and resulted in a touchdown on runway 01 at Fuerteventura Airport.
The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 143 knots, and the aircraft touched down at a speed of 141 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown distance was good at 203 meters, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 1,156 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 761 nautical miles, and the aircraft consumed 4,845 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 01 at GCFV Fuerteventura Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision throughout the descent. The aircraft descended from 1,260 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold, aligning with the runway centerline at a heading of 2.0 degrees. The approach was conducted in a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a moderate wind of 7 knots from 60 degrees, resulting in a 6-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind.
The aircraft touched down at a speed of 141 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed of 143 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 203 meters was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -268 feet per minute was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration upon touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway. The total landing distance of 1,156 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length, was also satisfactory.
Following touchdown, the aircraft maintained perfect centerline alignment during the rollout phase, demonstrating excellent control and precision. The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 98.9%. The slight deviation from the target threshold speed and touchdown speed were minor issues, but the aircraft's ability to maintain control and precision throughout the approach and rollout phases was commendable.
