Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on approach to be at 124 kt by the stabilisation gate, not just by the threshold.
What happened: The approach was too fast at the stabilisation gate, crossing the threshold at 125 kt against a VREF of 124 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 124 kt at the stabilisation gate.
See Arrival Approach
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: speed 59 kt FAST on the reference speed of 124 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,374 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 447 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-600 taxied from the parking area to runway 08 at RJTH Hachijojima Airport. The taxi-out required 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 08 at RJTH Hachijojima Airport. Takeoff distance was 914 m, representing 46 % of the runway, and liftoff was achieved at 142 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 28 °C, wind 5 kt from 85°, with a 1 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind.
Climb began overhead RJTH Hachijojima Airport, rising from 1,129 ft asl to 40,987 ft asl, an increase of 39,858 ft in 47 minutes while covering 363 nm.
Level cruise was established at latitude 34.2983117, longitude 146.0019997 and persisted for 215 minutes, covering 1,769 nm.
Descent started at latitude 29.0006766, longitude 179.998129, descending from 40,992 ft asl to 1,220 ft asl, a decrease of 39,772 ft in 21 minutes and covering 144 nm.
The final approach to runway 06 at PMDY Henderson Field was flown from the southwest, on a heading of 68.0° at 4 nm and 1,193 ft agl.
Landing was executed on runway 06, which is 2,373 m long, with a threshold speed slightly above target at 126 kt. Touchdown occurred 456 m down the runway at 120 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 168 fpm and perfect runway alignment. Local weather at the time was temperature 28 °C, wind 4 kt from 70°, with no crosswind and a 4 kt headwind.
The total landing distance measured 907 m, representing 38 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment remained perfect.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered 2,283 nm, required 290 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 11,534 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600, scored 99.8 %, entered the final approach to runway 06 at PMDY Henderson Field from the south-west on a heading of 68.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,193 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits; local weather was 28 °C with wind 4 kt from 70 °, crosswind 0 kt and headwind 4 kt.
At the threshold the runway length was 2,373 m and the threshold height was good. Threshold speed was slightly above target at 126 kt and the touchdown point was good at 456 m down the runway.
Touchdown occurred at 120 kt, described as a little fast, with a good vertical rate of -168 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Rollout used a total landing distance of 907 m, representing 38 % of the runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
To tighten performance, aim for the published threshold speed rather than the slightly high 126 kt and moderate the touchdown speed a few knots below 120 kt to provide additional safety margin while preserving the excellent alignment already achieved.
