Be on speed by the 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 87 kt FAST on the reference speed of 110 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 69 kt FAST on the reference speed of 110 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,079 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,079 m of the 2,436 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,531 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.76 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
Aircraft departed from Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport (KGKT) on runway 28, utilizing 91% of the 1,427-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 172 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 18°C, with a 6-knot headwind and a 3-knot crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it transitioned through several phases of flight, including a level cruise at 31,887 feet above sea level (asl) and a subsequent climb to 39,334 feet asl. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, followed by a descent to 31,830 feet asl. The flight continued with multiple climb and level cruise phases, ultimately descending to 1,199 feet asl over the Kentucky border. The aircraft then leveled off and began its final approach to Nashville International Airport (KBNA) on runway 02C. The landing was characterized by a touchdown speed of 147 knots, which was excessively fast, and a touchdown rate of -562 feet per minute, which was very hard. The aircraft utilized 82% of the 2,440-meter runway, with a total landing distance of 2,004 meters.
The flight concluded with a taxiing period of less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 366 nautical miles, with a flight time of 64 minutes and a fuel consumption of 447 kilograms. The aircraft's performance was affected by the local weather conditions, which featured a temperature of 12°C and a 11-knot headwind at the time of landing.
The Embraer Phenom 300E touched down on runway 02C at KBNA Nashville International Airport, a 2,440-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the south. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 164 knots, indicating a potential for a longer-than-necessary landing roll. The touchdown point was indeed very long, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway, and the touchdown speed of 147 knots was also excessively fast. This resulted in a very hard touchdown rate of -562 feet per minute, which may have contributed to the aircraft's misaligned runway touchdown position, 8.4 meters off the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind of 11 knots from a direction of 30 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's slightly misaligned runway rollout alignment, 7.9 meters off the centreline. The total landing distance of 2,004 meters was 82% of the available runway, indicating a relatively long landing roll.
Overall, the Embraer Phenom 300E's landing performance at KBNA Nashville International Airport was satisfactory, but with room for improvement. The aircraft's high threshold speed and fast touchdown speed contributed to a longer-than-necessary landing roll, and the misaligned touchdown and rollout positions detracted from the overall score. With a score of 73.5%, the landing was considered acceptable but not optimal.
