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 7,005 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 841 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 08 at KDEN Denver International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 6,241 feet, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 53°F and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 3 miles east of KDEN Denver International Airport, and climbed from an altitude of 6,116 feet above sea level to 32,996 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,880 feet, in 21 minutes and covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 10 miles northwest of 2NE9 Harford Ranch Haigler in Nebraska, and lasted for 157 minutes, covering a distance of 1,260 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 1 mile east of Franklin Park in New Jersey, and the aircraft descended from 32,994 feet above sea level to 1,726 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,268 feet, in 23 minutes and covering a distance of 36 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 208.0 degrees, at an altitude of 1,706 feet above ground level, and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. However, the aircraft was forced to execute a go-around at an altitude of 943 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 22 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport, with a runway length of 7,005 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 129 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 840 feet, and the touchdown speed was also good at 130 knots. However, the touchdown rate was very hard at -574 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 39°F and a wind speed of 0 knots at 0 degrees.
The total landing distance was 3,405 feet, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 48 feet from the centreline. 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 1,428 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 223 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 19,500 pounds.
The aircraft, identified as an A21N, successfully landed at LaGuardia Airport (KLGA) on runway 22. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 208.0° at 1 nautical mile and 1,706 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 83.0%.
The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 7,005 feet, and the threshold height was reported as good. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 129 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 840 feet. The touchdown speed of 130 knots was also considered good.
One area of concern was the touchdown rate, which was reported as very hard at -574 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down with a significant amount of deceleration, which may have put additional stress on the landing gear and other aircraft components.
In addition to the touchdown rate, the runway touchdown position was also misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline. This may have been due to a combination of factors, including the aircraft's approach path and the pilot's control inputs.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 39°F and no wind. The crosswind, headwind, and tailwind components were all zero knots, which reduced the complexity of the landing.
The total landing distance was 3,405 feet, which is 49% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to decelerate quickly after touchdown. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 48 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the aircraft's initial touchdown position and the pilot's control inputs during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, but there were some areas of concern, including the hard touchdown rate and the misaligned runway touchdown position and rollout alignment.
