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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,568 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 220 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KAVP Wilkes Barre Scranton International Airport. This process took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 04, with the aircraft taking off after covering 52% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,190 meters, and the liftoff speed was 152 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 6°C temperature and winds of 4 knots at 80 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both 3 knots. The enroute climb started overhead KAVP Wilkes Barre Scranton International Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,775 feet above sea level to 22,699 feet above sea level. This climb of 20,924 feet took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 38 nautical miles.
After reaching cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 21 minutes and covered a distance of 75 nautical miles. This phase began 4 miles south east of Little Meadows, Pennsylvania. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 3 miles north east of Wayland, New York. The descent took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 71 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 22,661 feet above sea level to 1,609 feet above sea level.
The final approach to runway 06 at KIAG Niagara Falls International Airport was made from the south west, with the aircraft heading at 48.0 degrees. However, a go-around was initiated at 917 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 06, with the touchdown distance being 215 meters. The touchdown speed was 129 knots, which was slightly fast, but the touchdown rate was good at -170 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were -2°C temperature. The total landing distance was 1,158 meters, which was 74% of the runway's length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centreline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 195 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 72 minutes. The aircraft used 3,251 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at KIAG Niagara Falls International Airport, achieving a score of 95.6%. The final approach to runway 06 was initiated from the southwest, heading 48.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,003 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the designated runway.
The landing performance was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 129 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 215 meters was also within the expected parameters. However, the touchdown speed of 129 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating a minor deviation from the optimal landing speed.
The aircraft's descent rate was good, with a rate of -170 feet per minute (fpm) at touchdown. This suggests that the pilots maintained a stable and controlled descent throughout the approach. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2°C, which may have presented some challenges for the pilots. Nevertheless, the aircraft performed well in these conditions, and the landing was executed safely.
The total landing distance of 1,158 meters was 74% of the available runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centerline, indicating a minor deviation from the optimal rollout path. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft demonstrated good performance and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
