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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: no landing flap set.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set.

Side view — the last 1,465 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,465 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 370 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a quick taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking less than a minute and covering a distance of less than a nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 10L at SBGR André Franco Montoro International Airport in São Paulo, Brazil. The takeoff distance was 1,908 meters, which is 54% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 33°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 50°.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile northeast of the airport. The climb took 19 minutes to reach a height of 34,890 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,390 feet from the initial altitude of 3,500 feet. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 125 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which began 8 miles north of Conceição do Rio Verde in Minas Gerais, Brazil. This cruise phase lasted for 49 minutes and covered a distance of 394 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 8 miles southeast of Jequitinhonha in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The descent took 27 minutes to reach a height of 1,344 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,648 feet from the initial altitude of 34,992 feet. During this descent, the aircraft covered a distance of 143 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 11 at SBIL Bahia - Jorge Amado Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 89.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,306 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 11 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 372 meters, which is 64% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -107 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect after the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 26°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 90°.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking less than a minute and covering a distance of less than a nautical mile. The total flight distance was 668 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 114 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,887 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at SBIL Bahia - Jorge Amado Airport, achieving an overall score of 83.7%. The final approach to runway 11 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 89.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,306 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 144 knots, which was considered good for the threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 372 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilot may have needed to apply more braking force upon touchdown.
The aircraft's descent rate was smooth, with a rate of -107 feet per minute. This suggests that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach, avoiding any sudden or excessive deceleration. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and a gentle headwind of 4 knots. The wind direction was from the east, which was perpendicular to the runway, resulting in a negligible crosswind component. The total landing distance of 935 meters was 64% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft maintained perfect alignment with the runway centerline, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control and stability throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance.
