See Arrival Final 3
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,786 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,786 ft of the 7,028 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,090 ft 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 25R at Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX). The takeoff distance was 4,421 feet, which was 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 65°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KLAX. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,113 feet above sea level to 38,540 feet, an increase of 37,427 feet, in 26 minutes and covering a distance of 140 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Baker, California. This phase lasted for 32 minutes and covered a distance of 1,826 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 9 miles north of Renovo, Pennsylvania. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 38,896 feet to 9,929 feet, a decrease of 28,967 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 139 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead Budd Lake, New Jersey. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 1 mile north of Oakland, New Jersey. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 9,990 feet to 1,782 feet, a decrease of 8,208 feet, in 5 minutes and covering a distance of 18 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at Newark Liberty International Airport (KEWR) was made from the north-east, with a heading of 206.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,753 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 22L, which had a length of 7,028 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed at 147 knots.
The touchdown point was 720 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -184 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 320°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 5,516 feet, which was 78% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,156 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 104 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 54,728 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at Newark Liberty International Airport (KEWR) on runway 22L. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 206.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,753 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course throughout the approach, ultimately touching down on the runway.
The touchdown point was located 720 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly fast on touchdown. Despite this, the touchdown rate of -184 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 320°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot and a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The runway length of 7,028 feet was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which totaled 5,516 feet, representing 78% of the available runway.
The runway touchdown alignment was reported to be perfect, indicating that the aircraft's approach and landing were well-executed. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 94.2%.
