See Arrival Final 3
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,132 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 384 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, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A321 then departed from runway 04R at LIPZ Venice Marco Polo Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,022 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 142 knots.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,008 feet above sea level to 15,069 feet above sea level, an increase of 14,061 feet, in just 5 minutes and covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. This enroute climb started over the LIPZ Venice Marco Polo Airport in Venezia, Italy. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 41 nautical miles, starting 5 miles east of Pellestrina, Italy.
The enroute descent phase began 1 mile south east of Ferrara, Italy, and lasted for 12 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 15,054 feet above sea level to 1,619 feet above sea level, a decrease of 13,436 feet, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 30 at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport was made from the south east, with the aircraft heading 297.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,486 feet above ground level.
However, the flight did not proceed smoothly, as the aircraft was required to perform a go-around at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, initially at an altitude of 30 feet above ground level and then again at 13 feet above ground level. Eventually, the aircraft landed safely on runway 30, with a touchdown distance of 385 meters and a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was faster than the target speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -239 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 22 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from 190 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,381 meters, which accounted for 65% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 102 nautical miles and took 70 minutes to complete, using 4,695 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at LIPE Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, achieving a high score of 97.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 297.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,486 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 30, which has a length of 2,132 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was significantly above the target speed, reaching 133 kt. This suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly too fast during the approach, but it was still able to maintain control and land safely.
The touchdown distance was good, measuring 385 meters, and the touchdown speed was 133 kt, which is considered fast. The touchdown rate was fair, at -239 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft touched down with a moderate rate of descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 2 kt from 190°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 kt, and the tailwind component was 1 kt. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach.
The total landing distance was 1,381 meters, which is 65% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft was able to land safely within the designated runway length. The high score of 97.6% reflects the excellent performance of the pilot and the aircraft during the landing.
