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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 305 m and 152 m above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,861 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,861 m of the 3,906 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 587 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Hannover Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey on runway 27L, taking 11 minutes to taxi from the parking area to the runway's threshold, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. At 144 knots, the aircraft lifted off the ground, utilizing 52% of the 1,205-meter runway. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, with a gentle wind of 2 knots from 350°.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it passed overhead Hannover Airport, initiating a steady ascent from 370 meters above sea level to 11,043 meters. This climb phase, which lasted 18 minutes, covered a distance of 109 nautical miles, resulting in a significant increase of 10,672.4 meters. Following a brief cruise phase, during which the aircraft leveled off at an altitude of 11,078 meters, it began its descent over Buchrain, Switzerland. The descent phase, which lasted 25 minutes, saw the aircraft decrease its altitude by 10,465.8 meters, covering a distance of 130 nautical miles.
The Boeing 737-800 finally approached runway 35R at Milan Malpensa International Airport from the south, aligning itself with the runway's centerline. The aircraft touched down 176 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, slightly above the target speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -1.1 meters per second, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. Following a taxiing period of 2 minutes, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having covered a total distance of 477 nautical miles and utilizing 3,516 kilograms of fuel throughout the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 35R at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport, marking a successful conclusion to the approach from the south. The aircraft's descent was well-managed, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 137 kt. This minor deviation from the ideal speed did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown point was located 176 m beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 133 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -1.1 m/s was fair. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating by 3.7 m from the centreline. Despite this minor misalignment, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 3 kt at 10 °, contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,785 m was 60% of the runway length, indicating a satisfactory performance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining control of the aircraft during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing scored 95.6%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
