Track the centreline
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.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate 1,783 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and centreline 3.5° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 1.0° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,255 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,255 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 394 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Çanakkale Airport (LTBH), the Boeing 737-800 began its journey with a taxiing period of 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile to reach the runway. Runway 22 was selected for departure, and the aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 1,198 meters, utilizing 51% of the available runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 153 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 23°C, a wind speed of 12 knots at 210°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and an 11-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed out of Çanakkale, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 35,991 feet above sea level in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 107 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 14 miles east of Stratonion, Central Macedonia, Greece, and lasted for 12 minutes, covering 77 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 35,996 feet to 37,863 feet, an increase of 1,867 feet in just 3 minutes, covering 21 nautical miles. The final level cruise phase started 2 miles north of Voreino, Central Macedonia, Greece, and lasted for 80 minutes, covering 549 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, Cannes-Mandelieu Airport (LFMD), it began its descent, reducing its altitude from 37,998 feet to 1,803 feet in 28 minutes, covering 144 nautical miles. The final approach was made to runway 35 from the south, with a heading of 344.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,782 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 392 meters, a touchdown speed of 130 knots, and a touchdown rate of -454 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 18.8 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 927 meters, utilizing 82% of the available runway. The total flight distance was 906 nautical miles, taking 152 minutes, and the aircraft used 6,197 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 35 at LFMD Cannes-Mandelieu Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the crew to maintain a stable approach. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 137 kt, indicating a well-executed flare. The touchdown distance of 392 m was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 130 kt was also good, suggesting a controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -454 fpm, which may have contributed to a slightly firm landing.
The aircraft's runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's directional control. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 19 °C and a wind of 10 kt at 140 °, were relatively calm, with a crosswind of 6 kt and a tailwind of 9 kt. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 927 m was 82% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 18.8 m from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation in the aircraft's directional control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing scored 87.0%, reflecting a good performance with some minor issues that could be addressed in future training or operations.
