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 1,648 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,648 m of the 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 396 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at KOAJ Albert J Ellis Airport, taking 4 minutes and covering 1 nautical mile. Departure roll took place on runway 05, with a takeoff distance of 1,246 meters, which was 58% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 150 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started at 1 mile north east of KOAJ Albert J Ellis Airport, Richlands, North Carolina, and reached an altitude of 34,413 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,310 feet in 16 minutes, covering 67 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began overhead 61NC Southern Comforts Aerodrome, Parkton, North Carolina, and lasted for 20 minutes, covering 111 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its descent from 34,411 feet above sea level to 26,623 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,789 feet in 7 minutes, covering 23 nautical miles. This was followed by a series of climbs and descents, with the aircraft climbing from 26,566 feet above sea level to 27,797 feet above sea level in 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles, and then descending from 28,965 feet above sea level to 27,709 feet above sea level in 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued to climb and descend, with a climb from 27,795 feet above sea level to 29,636 feet above sea level in 3 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles, and a descent from 29,450 feet above sea level to 28,707 feet above sea level in 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise for 5 minutes, covering 32 nautical miles, before beginning its final descent from 28,636 feet above sea level to 2,559 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,077 feet in 22 minutes, covering 98 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27L at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport was made from the east, heading 266.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,520 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 27L, which was 2,738 meters long, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was good at 142 knots, and the touchdown distance was good at 394 meters. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -271 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.0 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.8 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a wind of 5 knots at 40 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the tailwind was 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,559 meters, which was 57% of the runway length. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 370 nautical miles, taking 89 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,168 kilograms of fuel.
The CRJ900 aircraft successfully landed on runway 27L at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport, achieving a score of 94.9%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 266.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,520 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on the runway, with a threshold height that was considered good.
The threshold speed of 142 knots was also deemed good, indicating that the pilot maintained a suitable speed during the approach. However, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -271 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.0 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 40°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the tailwind component was 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,559 meters was 57% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a minor issue with the aircraft's braking system or a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and alignment, which may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's systems.
