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.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,195 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 679 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 11 at FMAJ Andapa Airport, where the Beechcraft King Air 350 took off with a takeoff distance of 668 meters, which was 62% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 112 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 113 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of FMAJ Andapa Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile east of the airport, rising from an altitude of 3,849 feet above sea level to 9,224 feet above sea level, an increase of 5,375 feet in just 4 minutes, while covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 9 miles northwest of FMAJ Andapa Airport and lasted for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 69 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 18 miles southeast of Ambanja, where the aircraft descended from 9,241 feet above sea level to 3,295 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,946 feet in 6 minutes, while covering a distance of 22 nautical miles. Another enroute level cruise then started 6 miles west of Ambanja and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 05 at FMNN Fascene Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading at 44.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,054 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 05 was successful, with the aircraft touching down 248 meters beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 92 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown rate was good at -173 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 45 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,213 meters, which was 55% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.3 meters from the centerline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 125 nautical miles, which was completed in 41 minutes, and the aircraft used 220 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Beechcraft King Air 350 aircraft successfully landed at FMNN Fascene Airport, achieving an overall score of 88.9%. The final approach to runway 05 was initiated from the southwest, with a heading of 44.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,054 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 107 kn, registering at 109 kn. The touchdown point was located 248 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 92 kn was also a bit faster than the desired speed, but the touchdown rate of -173 feet per minute was considered good.
The runway touchdown position was found to be misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C, a wind speed of 1 kn at 45°, and a crosswind of 0 kn and a headwind of 1 kn.
The total landing distance of 1,213 meters was 55% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was found to be slightly misaligned by 9.3 meters from the centerline, which may require further attention to ensure proper alignment during future landings.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some minor deviations from the desired parameters. These deviations can be addressed through further training and practice to improve the aircraft's landing performance.
