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 1,739 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 234 m touchdown sits inside 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 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 29 at LCEN Nicosia (Lefkoşa) Ercan International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,134 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 145 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 239°.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead LCEN Nicosia (Lefkoşa) Ercan International Airport. The climb took 28 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,431 feet above sea level to 38,851 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,420 feet. The enroute climb covered a distance of 218 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 14 miles east of OS68 Saiqal Air Base Saiqal (Damascus Countryside, Syria). This phase lasted for 229 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 904 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 15 miles south of Musay`id (Al Wakrah, Qatar), where the aircraft descended from 39,044 feet above sea level to 23,405 feet above sea level, a decrease of 15,638 feet. This descent took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 76 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 19 miles south of OMAH Al Hamra Auxiliary Airport Al Shuweihat (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates). This phase lasted for 35 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The enroute descent phase began 19 miles south of OMAH Al Hamra Auxiliary Airport Al Shuweihat (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates), where the aircraft descended from 23,405 feet above sea level to 19,020 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,385 feet. This descent took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 22 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 37 miles south of OMAH Al Hamra Auxiliary Airport Al Shuweihat (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates). This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 38 miles southwest of OMAB Buhasa Airport Buhasa (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates), where the aircraft descended from 19,072 feet above sea level to 1,995 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,078 feet. This descent took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 48 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles east of OEST Khalfan Khalfan (Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia). This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31 at OEST Khalfan began from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 323.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,504 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 31 at OEST Khalfan was successful, with a touchdown distance of 235 meters, which was 41% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 123 knots, and the touchdown rate was -186 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at OEST Khalfan, achieving a high score of 99.7%. The final approach to runway 31 was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 323.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,504 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 127 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 235 meters, which is within the expected range. The touchdown speed was also good at 123 knots, and the touchdown rate of -186 feet per minute (fpm) was within the acceptable limits. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 32°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 324°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and improve the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 719 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a good indication of the aircraft's braking performance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft performing well in terms of speed, distance, and alignment.
