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 2,457 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 557 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-900, then departed from runway 10 at MBPV Providenciales International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,245 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 80 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile east of MBPV Providenciales International Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,018 feet above sea level to 36,184 feet above sea level, an increase of 35,166 feet in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 165 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began 40 miles northeast of MUGV Guardalavaca, lasting 171 minutes and covering 1,177 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 13 miles east of Montenegro la Lana, where the aircraft descended from 35,840 feet above sea level to 6,787 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,053 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 74 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 01 at MMOX Aeropuerto Internacional Xoxocotlán was made from the south, heading 48.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,766 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 01 was successful, with a touchdown point 149 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 144 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -122 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 120 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,253 meters, accounting for 51% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft took 1 minute to taxi to the parking, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,423 nautical miles, taking 206 minutes, and the aircraft used 10,459 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at MMOX Aeropuerto Internacional Xoxocotlán, achieving a score of 98.8%. The final approach to runway 01 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 48.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,766 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 149 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the designated area. The touchdown speed of 133 knots was a bit faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilots may have needed to apply more braking to bring the aircraft to a stop. However, the touchdown rate of -122 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, suggesting that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 120°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. Despite these conditions, the pilots were able to maintain perfect runway touchdown alignment, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.
The total landing distance of 1,253 meters was 51% of the runway length, indicating that the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and decision-making skills. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown point accuracy.
