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.

Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 6,386 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,063 ft 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 14 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 20 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Barcelona, Spain. The takeoff distance was 3,314 feet, which was 40% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 152 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 250 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft climbed to a height of 37,585 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,553 feet from the initial altitude of 1,032 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 90 nautical miles.
The enroute climb started over the LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport and continued until the aircraft reached a cruising altitude. The enroute level cruise started 10 miles south east of Peniscola, Spain, and lasted for 132 minutes, covering a distance of 914 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 65 miles north of Akhfennir, Morocco, and descending from 37,880 feet to 8,592 feet in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 91 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again 11 miles south east of GCFV Fuerteventura Airport El Matorral, Canary Islands, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 26 miles south east of Tuineje, Canary Islands, and descending from 8,345 feet to 1,341 feet in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 23 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 01 at GCFV Fuerteventura Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 2.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,061 feet and a touchdown speed of 113 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -53 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The total landing distance was 2,330 feet, which was 36% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,147 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 194 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 14,246 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at Fuerteventura Airport (GCFV) with a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach to runway 01 was initiated from the south, with a heading of 2.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles (nm) and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 121 knots (kt), which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown distance of 1,061 feet was also within the expected parameters, demonstrating the pilots' ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. The touchdown speed of 113 kt was also good, indicating that the pilots managed to slow the aircraft down smoothly and safely.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was recorded at an excellent -53 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the pilots were able to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach, resulting in a smooth and safe touchdown. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilots' ability to navigate the aircraft to the centerline of the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F and a wind speed of 11 kt from a direction of 340°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 kt, while the headwind component was 10 kt, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.
The total landing distance of 2,330 feet was 36% of the runway length, indicating that the pilots were able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a safe and controlled distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilots' ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop.
Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a safe and controlled approach and landing, with the pilots demonstrating exceptional skill and proficiency in navigating the aircraft to a safe touchdown.
