Monitor your 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 5,301 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,301 ft of the 11,040 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 895 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 20C at KBNA Nashville International Airport. The takeoff distance was 3,333 feet, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 71°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 240°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 2 miles south of KBNA Nashville International Airport. The climb was from an altitude of 1,570 feet above sea level to 34,866 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,296 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 1 mile southeast of Scottsboro Muni-Word Field in Scottsboro, Alabama. This cruise phase lasted for 45 minutes and covered a distance of 305 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 17 miles west of Ezell Airport in Keaton Beach, Florida. The descent was from an altitude of 35,237 feet above sea level to 5,291 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,946 feet in 27 minutes, covering a distance of 111 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 6 miles northwest of Key Vista in Florida and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Hidden Lake Airport in New Port Richey, Florida, and was from an altitude of 5,005 feet above sea level to 1,307 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,698 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 15 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19R at KTPA Tampa International Airport was from the north, with a heading of 182.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 19R, which had a length of 11,040 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 146 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 898 feet, with a touchdown speed of 144 knots, which was fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -317 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 260°. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 5,038 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The final taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 7 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 541 nautical miles, which was covered in 122 minutes, and the aircraft used 8,660 pounds of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KTPA Tampa International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.9%. The final approach to runway 19R was conducted from the north, with a heading of 182.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,283 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a slightly above-target threshold speed of 146 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown distance of 898 feet, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly over-controlled during the landing. The touchdown rate of -317 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was well-managed.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a light wind of 4 knots from 260°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot, which had a negligible effect on the landing.
The total landing distance of 5,038 feet was 46% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing the aircraft to come to a stop in a controlled manner. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft performing well within the acceptable parameters.
