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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,795 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,795 m of the 4,890 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 356 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 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 20R at KSNA John Wayne Orange County International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,024 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 20°C, a wind speed of 4 knots at 220°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KSNA John Wayne Orange County International Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,051 feet above sea level to 36,584 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,532 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 115 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began 5 miles northeast of 73CL Julian Hinds Pump Plant Airstrip, and lasted for 15 minutes, covering a distance of 498 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 16 miles south of KGUC Gunnison Crested Butte Regional Airport, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 37,280 feet above sea level to 6,619 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,661 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 16R at KDEN Denver International Airport was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 178.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 16R at KDEN Denver International Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 360 meters, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 134 knots was slightly above the target speed, and the touchdown rate was firm at -393 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, a wind speed of 4 knots at 160°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,724 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 762 nautical miles, and the flight used 4,263 kilograms of fuel, taking a total of 52 minutes to complete.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at KDEN Denver International Airport on runway 16R, achieving a score of 94.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 178.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,283 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 4,890 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 141 knots. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance of 360 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 134 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -393 feet per minute (fpm).
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted in a slightly uneven rollout. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 160°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which likely contributed to a stable and controlled approach.
The total landing distance of 1,724 meters was 35% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, which may have required some corrective action from the pilots to maintain control of the aircraft. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
