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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,395 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 191 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the taxiing of the Boeing 737-600 from the parking to the runway at Zakynthos International Airport Dionysios Solomos, a 1-minute process that covered less than 1 nautical mile. From runway 34, the aircraft commenced its departure roll and successfully took off with a takeoff distance of 1,002 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 150 knots.
As the aircraft began its enroute climb, it started to ascend from a height of 1,029 feet above sea level to 38,131 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,103 feet, in 30 minutes while covering a distance of 188 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place overhead Gaitanion in the Ionian Islands, Greece.
After completing the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned to an enroute level cruise, which started approximately 34 miles south east of Roccella Ionica in Calabria, Italy. During this 109-minute phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 1,427 nautical miles, demonstrating its impressive performance and fuel efficiency.
As the flight progressed, the enroute descent began 39 miles north west of Sidi Ifni in Souss-Massa, Morocco. Over the course of 13 minutes, the aircraft descended from a height of 38,024 feet above sea level to 1,355 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,669 feet, and covered a distance of 178 nautical miles.
The final phase of the flight was marked by the aircraft's approach to runway 03 at César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport, where it made a flawless landing. The runway touchdown occurred at 1,308 feet above ground level, with a good threshold height and threshold speed of 129 knots. The aircraft landed at a speed of 125 knots, slightly higher than the recommended touch down speed. However, the touchdown rate was good at -191 feet per minute.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft traversed a total distance of 655 meters, occupying only 27% of the 2,395-meter runway. The runway rollout alignment was flawless, with the aircraft coming to a stop perfectly aligned. Finally, the taxiing from the runway to the parking took another 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. Throughout the flight, the aircraft used a total of 11,260 kilograms of fuel, and it covered a total distance of 1,800 nautical miles in 2 hours and 38 minutes.
The Boeing 737-600 successfully landed on runway 03 at the César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport, scoring a high percentage of 99.8% in terms of overall performance. The final approach was precision-crafted from the southwest direction, with a heading of 27.0° and an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level (AGL), which is approximately 4 nautical miles from the airport.
Upon reaching the runway, the pilot successfully controlled the aircraft's descent and speed to land with good threshold height and an optimal threshold speed of 129 knots. The touchdown distance was equally satisfactory, coming in at an impressive 193 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots might have been a tad too fast, which might have impacted the performance of the aircraft.
Despite minor issues with the touchdown speed, other key metrics were positively evaluated. The touchdown rate, which measures how quickly the plane touched down relative to its velocity, was spot on at -191 feet per minute (fpm), signifying a safe and controlled landing. Moreover, the runway touchdown alignment was deemed extremely good, indicating seamless control.
Under the given weather conditions of 24°C temperature and a light headwind of 4 knots, the landing distance for this aircraft was recorded at 655 meters, accounting for just 27% of the runway's length. Not only was this landing distance acceptable, but the run-up speed was also noted to be perfect by the observers. It's worth mentioning that this run-up speed signifies the plane's ability to maintain alignment after touchdown.
