Keep the wings level 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,991 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 496 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 approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 21 at RCYU Hualien Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,137 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 205 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of Hualien City, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile north of the city. The climb took 43 minutes and covered a distance of 277 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,128 feet above sea level to 38,843 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,715 feet. The enroute level cruise then began, lasting 119 minutes and covering 957 nautical miles. The aircraft's position during this phase was at a latitude of 27.647096 and a longitude of 124.7398923.
The enroute descent started 29 miles northeast of Ryotsu-minato, Japan, and took 16 minutes to descend from 38,946 feet above sea level to 2,836 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,111 feet. The aircraft then began another level cruise, this time lasting only 3 minutes and covering 11 nautical miles, 2 miles southeast of Noshiro, Japan.
The final approach to runway 11 at RJSR Odate Noshiro Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 101.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,288 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 78 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -56 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 270 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,061 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft then began taxiing to the parking, which took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,367 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 188 minutes. The aircraft used 8,470 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at RJSR Odate Noshiro Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach to runway 11 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 101.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,288 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 141 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown point was 78 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing spot. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -56 feet per minute was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 4 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,061 meters was 53% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight and stable path after touchdown. Overall, the landing was executed flawlessly, with the aircraft demonstrating excellent control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
