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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 12,015 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,109 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 09 at Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport, WADD. The takeoff distance was 6,043 feet, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 191 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 89 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 2 knots at 110 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south east of Kuta, Provinsi Bali, Indonesia. The climb took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 165 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,047 feet above sea level to 36,835 feet above sea level.
The enroute climb was followed by a descent, which started at a latitude of -10.7842213 and a longitude of 117.094886. The descent took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 13 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 36,824 feet above sea level to 35,160 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which started at a latitude of -10.9583015 and a longitude of 117.2600886. This phase lasted for 76 minutes and covered a distance of 653 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 6 miles east of YMJD Millajiddee St George Ranges, State of Western Australia, Australia. The climb took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 31 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 34,930 feet above sea level to 36,918 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 16 miles south of YHAK Halls Creek Airport, Halls Creek, State of Western Australia, Australia. This phase lasted for 160 minutes and covered a distance of 1,402 nautical miles.
The enroute cruise phases were followed by a descent, which started 6 miles north west of Pyramid Hill, State of Victoria, Australia. The descent took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 107 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 36,430 feet above sea level to 3,006 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered a final level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south east of Mickleham, State of Victoria, Australia. This phase lasted for 12 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16 at Melbourne International Airport, YMML, was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 169.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 2,007 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 16, which had a length of 12,015 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 144 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,118 feet, and the touchdown speed was 134 knots, which was also good.
However, the touchdown rate was very heavy at -817 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 40 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 88 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 7 knots at 189 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 3,500 feet, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 40 feet from the centreline
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Melbourne International Airport (YMML) on runway 16, achieving an overall score of 88.0%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 169.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,007 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 144 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 1,118 feet, and the touchdown speed was 134 knots, which is considered good. However, the touchdown rate was quite heavy at -817 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a relatively steep descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 88°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from 189°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
Despite the good overall performance, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 40 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 40 feet from the centreline, indicating a possible issue with the aircraft's braking or steering performance.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but with some minor areas for improvement. The aircraft's performance was satisfactory, and the weather conditions were favorable, contributing to a relatively smooth landing. However, the heavy touchdown rate and minor misalignments during rollout suggest that the pilots may need to fine-tune their approach and landing techniques to achieve a more optimal performance.
