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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,287 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 487 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 08, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 1,564 meters, which was 63% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 149 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 339°.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 2 miles east of ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,123 feet above sea level to 29,532 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,408 feet in 17 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 95 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase started 2 miles south of ESOE Örebro Airport, where the aircraft maintained a steady altitude for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 2 miles north of Hova, where the aircraft started its descent from 29,572 feet above sea level to 1,791 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,780 feet in 14 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 91 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 21 at ESGG Göteborg Landvetter Airport was made from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 206.0° at an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing took place on runway 21, which had a length of 3,287 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots. The touchdown point was 70 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 129 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -226 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.4 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 280°. The crosswind component was 17 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,079 meters, which was 33% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.3 meters.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 222 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 45 minutes. The aircraft used 150 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at ESGG Göteborg Landvetter Airport, achieving a score of 96.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 206.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,286 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, as indicated by the threshold height and speed, which were both within acceptable limits at 138 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 70 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 129 knots. However, the touchdown rate was slightly below average at -226 feet per minute (fpm), which could be considered fair. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.4 meters, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 18 knots from a direction of 280°. This resulted in a crosswind of 17 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained control and landed safely.
The total landing distance was 1,079 meters, which is approximately 33% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled throughout the approach and landing phases. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 8.3 meters, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft scored well in terms of control and safety. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
