Hold the approach angle
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 2,804 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 602 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A32NX flight began with a quick taxi from the parking area to the runway at CYYT St. John's International Airport, covering less than 1 nm in just 2 minutes. The departure roll from runway 11 saw a takeoff distance of 1,750 m, with a liftoff speed of 148 kn. The local weather conditions at departure included a temperature of 9 °C, wind at 19 kn from 290 °, a crosswind of 8 kn, and a tailwind of 17 kn.
As the aircraft climbed enroute, it started 1 mile east of CYYT St. John's International Airport and ascended from 1,306 ft asl to 31,316 ft asl in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nm. The level cruise began 8 miles east of Bloomfield and lasted 122 minutes, covering 729 nm. The descent phase started 22 miles south of Phippsburg, with the aircraft descending from 32,410 ft asl to 13,378 ft asl over 55 nm in just 9 minutes. Another brief level cruise followed, lasting 42 minutes and covering less than 1 nm, before a descent from 13,378 ft asl to 4,401 ft asl over 32 nm in 11 minutes.
The aircraft entered another short level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nm, before commencing a descent from 3,577 ft asl to 1,808 ft asl over 8 nm in just 3 minutes. The landing took place on runway 33L at KBOS Logan International Airport, with a height of 65 ft agl and a speed of 145 kn at the threshold. Touchdown occurred 602 m from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 125 kn and a VSI of -422 ft/min. Weather conditions at landing included a temperature of 17 °C, wind at 28 kn from 270 °, a crosswind of 20 kn, and a headwind of 20 kn. The total landing distance was 1,100 m, accounting for 39% of the runway.
After landing, the aircraft taxied back to the parking area, covering less than 1 nm in just 1 minute. The entire flight covered a distance of 896 nm, lasted 215 minutes, and consumed 3,241 kg of fuel.
Firstly, congratulations on achieving an aircraft landing score of 86.0%! Your performance during the approach, landing, touchdown, and rollout phases all contributed to this commendable score.
During the approach phase, it was noted that the descent path was above the glideslope limit and the speed was slightly above target. To improve this phase, ensure that you maintain a steady descent path and keep a close eye on your speed to ensure it aligns with the target for a smoother approach.
Moving on to the landing phase, it was observed that the threshold height was above target and the landing flare was very poor. To enhance this phase, focus on accurately judging the threshold height and work on improving your landing flare technique for a smoother touchdown.
In the touchdown phase, while the touchdown rate was noted to be very hard, it is commendable that your speed was on target. However, there is room for improvement in ensuring a softer touchdown to reduce stress on the aircraft and passengers. Additionally, landing 177m beyond the touchdown zone indicates the need for better judgment of the touchdown point to ensure safe and precise landings.
Despite landing with a 20 kn crosswind, it is commendable that you managed the situation well. Handling crosswinds can be challenging, so continue practicing to further improve your skills in such conditions.
Lastly, in the rollout phase, the runway alignment was slightly off centerline. Pay attention to maintaining proper runway alignment for smoother taxiing and to ensure safety during this phase.
Overall, your performance shows skills and potential for improvement. Keep practicing, paying attention to your approach, landing, touchdown, and rollout techniques to further enhance your aircraft landing capabilities. Well done on your score and keep up the good work!
