See Arrival Final 4
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,497 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 598 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 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Learjet 35A, then departed from runway 06 at the Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport (KSGH) in Springfield, Ohio, United States. The takeoff distance was 825 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 141 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and winds of 5 knots at 200 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the tailwind was 4 knots. After departing from KSGH, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 34 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 2,064 feet above sea level to 23,547 feet above sea level, an increase of 21,484 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started 2 miles northwest of Dublin, Ohio. This cruise phase lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 46 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles northeast of Danville, Ohio. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 53 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 23,533 feet above sea level to 2,995 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,538 feet.
After the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles northeast of Hartville, Ohio. This cruise phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at the Akron Canton Regional Airport (KCAK), approaching from the northeast at a heading of 226.0 degrees and 4 nautical miles from the airport.
The landing was made on runway 23, which had a length of 2,497 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 141 knots. The touchdown point was 228 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots and a touchdown rate of -165 feet per minute, both of which were good. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and winds of 6 knots at 230 degrees, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,209 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft took 3 minutes to taxi to the parking, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 144 nautical miles, taking 39 minutes, and the aircraft used 238 kilograms of fuel.
The Learjet 35A successfully landed at KCAK Akron Canton Regional Airport, achieving a score of 94.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northeast, heading 226.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,574 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft landed on runway 23, which has a length of 2,497 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 141 knots. However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, landing 228 meters down the runway. The touchdown speed of 120 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -165 feet per minute (fpm) was also good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 230°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 6 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good.
The total landing distance of 1,209 meters was 48% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. Overall, the landing was executed with good control and precision, and the aircraft came to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
