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.
Side view — the last 1,533 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,533 m of the 3,142 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 535 m past the threshold — beyond 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 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 06 at LIRN Naples International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,056 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 359 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south east of Casoria, Campania, Italy. The climb took 8 minutes and covered 48 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,183 feet above sea level to 20,748 feet above sea level, an increase of 19,565 feet.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted 2 minutes and covered 16 nautical miles. This cruise phase started 1 mile south west of Volturino, Puglia, Italy. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time starting 3 miles south east of San Severo, Puglia, Italy. The climb took 4 minutes and covered 35 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 21,285 feet above sea level to 23,269 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,983 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted 4 minutes and covered 35 nautical miles. This cruise phase started 3 miles north east of Peschici, Puglia, Italy. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 25 miles south of LDSU Ubli, Dubrovacko-Neretvanska Zupanija, Croatia. The descent took 21 minutes and covered 65 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 23,281 feet above sea level to 1,800 feet above sea level, a decrease of 21,480 feet.
The final approach to runway 11 at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport was made from the north west, with the aircraft heading 119.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,287 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 117 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was also good at -192 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 50 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,450 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The aircraft then began its taxiing period from the runway to the parking, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 206 nautical miles, and the flight took 49 minutes. The aircraft used 2,511 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LDDU Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport, showcasing a high level of precision and control. The final approach to runway 11 was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 119.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,287 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed with a high degree of accuracy, with the threshold height being good and the threshold speed of 141 knots being well within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 117 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation but still within the acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was also good, indicating that the aircraft was brought to a safe and controlled stop.
The touchdown rate of -192 feet per minute was also good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly and without any significant deceleration. 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 at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 50°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 1 knot, which did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,450 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a safe stop in a relatively short distance, which is a testament to their skill and experience.
Finally, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway centerline even after touchdown and during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft being brought to a safe and controlled stop on the runway.
