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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,572 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,572 m of the 2,125 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 531 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Learjet 35 taxied from the parking area to runway 24R at CYHU Montréal / Saint-Hubert Airport in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24R, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 970 m, representing 41 % of the runway, and lifted off at 146 kt; ambient temperature was 22 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 230 °, a headwind component of 3 kt and no cross-wind.
The first en-route climb commenced overhead CYHU, climbing from 1,025 ft asl to 30,220 ft asl - an increase of 29,196 ft - in 10 minutes while covering 53 nm.
A level cruise segment began 5 nm north of Tres-Saint-Redempteur, lasting 2 minutes and extending 11 nm.
The next climb started 1 nm north-west of CYIG Hawkesbury Airport, gaining 677 ft from 30,412 ft asl to 31,089 ft asl in 2 minutes and traversing 10 nm.
A subsequent cruise phase originated 5 nm south of Plantagenet, persisted for 5 minutes and covered 32 nm.
The third climb was initiated 2 nm west of Ottawa, rising from 31,552 ft asl to 39,945 ft asl - an increase of 8,393 ft - in 7 minutes and spanning 39 nm.
The final cruise segment began 9 nm south of CNL6 Hurds Lake Seaplane Base, lasted 22 minutes and encompassed 134 nm.
Descent began overhead Keswick, descending from 39,844 ft asl to 2,066 ft asl - a loss of 37,778 ft - in 18 minutes while covering 91 nm.
On final approach to runway 08 at CYKF Region of Waterloo International Airport, the aircraft descended from 1,114 ft agl to 45 ft agl in 101 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gates criteria.
Landing on runway 08 was executed with a threshold speed of 126 kt; touchdown occurred 113 m beyond the touchdown zone at 119 kt and a vertical speed of minus 172 fpm, with perfect runway-touchdown alignment. Local weather reported 18 °C, wind 4 kt from 290 °, a cross-wind component of 3 kt and a tail-wind component of 3 kt. The total landing distance measured 1,490 m, equivalent to 70 % of the 2,125 m runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good as the aircraft decelerated and exited the runway.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 5 minutes, covering a further 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 379 nm, required 79 minutes of flight time and consumed 824 kg of fuel.
The approach to runway 08 at CYKF was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The aircraft descended from 1,114 ft agl to 45 ft agl in 101 seconds, satisfying the stabilisation-gate criteria on the final approach.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was recorded as 126 kt, both meeting the expected parameters for the Learjet 35. The aircraft maintained the appropriate configuration through the flare, preparing for touchdown on the designated runway.
Touchdown occurred 113 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 119 kt, a rate of -172 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment. All touchdown figures were rated as good.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,490 m, representing 70 % of the 2,125 m runway, and the runway-rollout alignment was very good. Local weather was 18 °C with wind 4 kt from 290°, including a 3 kt crosswind and a 3 kt tailwind component.
Minor refinements should focus on reducing the touchdown point offset by adjusting the flare to achieve a touchdown nearer the designated zone, which will shorten the rollout distance while preserving the excellent speed and alignment already demonstrated.
