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.
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 1,691 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,691 m of the 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 302 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, a CRJ900, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Mobile Regional Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll took place on runway 15, with the aircraft taking off after covering 53% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,367 meters, and the liftoff speed was 161 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 28°C temperature and a wind of 17 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 16 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Mobile Regional Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,307 feet above sea level to 27,944 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,637 feet in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 62 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 3 miles northeast of Allentown, Florida. This phase lasted for 17 minutes and covered a distance of 122 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 9 miles north of Weedon Field Eufaula, Alabama, and descending from 27,806 feet above sea level to 26,290 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,516 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles south of Lawson Army Air Field Fort Benning, Alabama, and lasting for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles. The descent phase resumed, starting 3 miles southeast of Waverly Hall, Georgia, and descending from 25,734 feet above sea level to 3,697 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,037 feet in 11 minutes and covering a distance of 65 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 3 miles northeast of Pinetree Heliport Cumming, Georgia, and lasting for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 27L at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport took place from the east, with the aircraft heading 270.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,613 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 27L, with the aircraft covering 59% of the runway's length. The touchdown distance was 302 meters, and the touchdown speed was 133 knots, both of which were considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -276 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.9 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 1,611 meters, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were 27°C temperature and a wind of 6 knots at 212 degrees. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 9 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 310 nautical miles, taking 64 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,720 kilograms of fuel.
The CRJ900 aircraft successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 27L, achieving a score of 96.4%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,613 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold speed was also within the acceptable range at 137 knots, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 302 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach.
However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly below the recommended speed, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. Additionally, the touchdown rate of -276 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation during the touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 6 knots at 212°, contributed to a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a safe landing.
The total landing distance of 1,611 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.9 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. Overall, the landing was considered safe and successful, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
