Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 2,990 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 392 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 35 at GMTA Cherif Al Idrissi Airport. The Airbus A320 took off with a takeoff distance of 939 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb 2 miles north of GMTA Cherif Al Idrissi Airport, Al Hoceima. The climb started from an altitude of 1,020 feet above sea level and reached a maximum altitude of 20,740 feet above sea level, an increase of 19,720 feet in just 6 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 29 nautical miles during this climb phase.
The enroute descent phase began 25 miles west of Al Hoceima, where the aircraft descended from 21,408 feet above sea level to 16,502 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,906 feet in just 3 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 25 nautical miles during this descent phase.
The flight then entered another enroute climb phase 17 miles south east of Martil, where the aircraft climbed from 16,072 feet above sea level to 19,980 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,908 feet in just 2 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 12 nautical miles during this climb phase.
The enroute descent phase began again 5 miles south east of Martil, where the aircraft descended from 19,984 feet above sea level to 2,154 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,830 feet in 8 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 27 nautical miles during this descent phase.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase 4 miles south east of Tangier, where it maintained a constant altitude for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 28 at GMTT Tangier Ibn Battuta Airport began from the east, with the aircraft heading 276.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,353 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed on runway 28, which had a length of 2,990 meters. The threshold height at 56 feet above ground level was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 150 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 394 meters, but the touchdown speed of 145 knots was fast. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -741 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. The crosswind was 0 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 997 meters, which accounted for 33% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 106 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 31 minutes. The aircraft used 0 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at GMTT Tangier Ibn Battuta Airport, achieving a score of 92.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 276.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,353 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 28, which has a length of 2,990 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 145 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance of 394 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -741 feet per minute (fpm) was very heavy, suggesting that the aircraft may have touched down with a significant amount of force.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a slight headwind of 1 knot. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The total landing distance of 997 meters was 33% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline throughout the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 92.2%. However, the heavy touchdown rate and slightly fast touchdown speed may indicate areas for improvement in the aircraft's approach and landing technique.
