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 3,003 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 315 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the RJ85 CityJet aircraft taxiing from the parking to the runway at the Albuquerque International Sunport, taking 13 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 03, with a takeoff distance of 1,347 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 133 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Albuquerque, it encountered local weather conditions of 12°C temperature and a wind speed of 0 knots at 90 degrees. The enroute climb started overhead the Albuquerque International Sunport, with the aircraft ascending from 6,356 feet above sea level to 30,673 feet above sea level, an increase of 24,317 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 129 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 7 miles east of the Diamond A Ranch Airport, lasting 51 minutes and covering 371 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 16 miles southeast of the Rancho Sierra Hermosa Airstrip, descending from 31,665 feet above sea level to 10,153 feet above sea level, a decrease of 21,511 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 6 miles south of the Rancho Guadalupe South Airport, lasting 7 minutes and covering 33 nautical miles. The enroute descent began again 5 miles northeast of Mina, with the aircraft descending from 9,261 feet above sea level to 2,662 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,598 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11 at the Monterrey International Airport took place from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 131.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,394 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 11 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 315 meters, a touchdown speed of 105 knots, and a touchdown rate of -428 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 17°C temperature and a wind speed of 13 knots at 120 degrees, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 13 knots. The total landing distance was 870 meters, accounting for 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, taking 4 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 658 nautical miles, taking 120 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,868 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, a Just Flight RJ85 CityJet, successfully landed at Monterrey International Airport (MMMY) with a score of 95.8%. The final approach was conducted from the northwest, heading 131.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,394 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 11, which has a length of 3,003 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 115 knots was also satisfactory, demonstrating that the pilot had maintained control and was on track to land safely. The touchdown distance of 315 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 105 knots was also good.
However, the touchdown rate was hard, at -428 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate that the pilot could have applied more gentle braking or used reverse thrust to slow the aircraft down more smoothly. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from 120°. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 13 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. Despite these conditions, the pilot managed to maintain control and land the aircraft safely.
The total landing distance of 870 meters was 29% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and was able to bring the aircraft to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were a few areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway alignment.
