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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,310 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 198 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.

The next descent began 4 miles north-west of KNZY North Island Naval Air Station-Halsey Field, dropping from 3,054 ft asl to 580 ft asl - a decrease of 2,474 ft - in 5 minutes over 14 nm.
A subsequent climb was performed overhead Coronado, rising from 553 ft asl to 1,565 ft asl - an increase of 1,012 ft - in 2 minutes while covering 4 nm.
Another level cruise segment started 2 miles west of KNZY, lasting 6 minutes and covering 16 nm.
The final approach to runway 27 at KSAN San Diego International Airport was executed from the east, on a heading of 280.0°, at 4 nm and 1,388 ft agl.
Landing on runway 27, which is 2,310 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 133 kt. Touchdown occurred 53 m down the runway at 132 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 205 fpm and a lateral deviation of 6.2 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 26 °C, wind from 240° at 8 kt, a 6 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt headwind component. The total landing distance was 925 m, representing 40 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was noted to be slightly off centreline by 10.5 m.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
