Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on approach to be at 122 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 122 kt against a VREF of 122 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 122 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 42 kt FAST on the reference speed of 122 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 2,740 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 420 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 06 at PMDY Henderson Field, a movement that required 4 minutes and covered 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 06, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 858 m, representing 36 % of the runway, and lifted off at 142 kt; ambient temperature was 28 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 070°, providing a 4 kt headwind and no crosswind.
Climb commenced overhead PMDY Henderson Field Sand Island, with the airplane ascending from 955 ft asl to 40 989 ft asl, a gain of 40 034 ft achieved in 41 minutes while traversing 307 nm.
The first en-route cruise began at latitude 25.9171962, longitude -172.2190289 and persisted for 87 minutes, during which 697 nm were covered at level flight.
Descent started 24 miles west of PHBK Barking Sands Airport Kekaha, the aircraft descending from 41 001 ft asl to 1 990 ft asl, a loss of 39 010 ft accomplished in 18 minutes and spanning 119 nm.
A subsequent level cruise was initiated 6 miles south-west of Nanakuli, lasting 5 minutes and covering 17 nm before the final approach phase.
The final approach to runway 04R at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport was conducted from the south-west, on a heading of 53.0° at 4 nm and 1 288 ft agl.
Landing on runway 04R, which is 2 739 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 123 kt; touchdown was recorded at 420 m down the runway, at 112 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 191 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 3.1 m from the centreline. Local conditions were 26 °C, wind 5 kt from 080°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind. Total landing distance measured 1 148 m, equivalent to 42 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was assessed as very good, confirming the aircraft remained on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.
Taxi-in to the parking area from the runway required less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1 148 nm, lasted 159 minutes, and consumed 6 536 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600 approached runway 04R at PHNL from the south-west on a heading of 53.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,288 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
During the threshold and flare the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 123 kt, both recorded as good. Touchdown occurred 420 m down the runway at a speed of 112 kt and a vertical rate of minus 191 fpm, each judged good. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.1 m from the centreline.
The landing was completed in a total distance of 1,148 m, representing 42 % of the 2,739 m runway. Local weather was 26 °C with wind 5 kt from 080°, providing a 2 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt headwind. All recorded figures met the performance criteria.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.
Minor refinement should target the 3.1 m lateral offset at touchdown to achieve exact centreline alignment, while preserving the current speed and rate performance that yielded a 98.6 % score.
