See Arrival Final 1
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,237 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 499 m 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 31L at John F. Kennedy International Airport (KJFK). The takeoff distance was 1,261 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 144 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 330 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb overhead Howard Beach, New York, and ascended from 1,024 feet above sea level to 30,056 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,032 feet, in 21 minutes and covering a distance of 100 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Dalton, Pennsylvania, and lasted for 89 minutes, covering a distance of 471 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent from 29,998 feet above sea level to 2,616 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,382 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 71 nautical miles. The descent started overhead Saugatuck, Michigan.
The aircraft then leveled off 3 miles east of Kenilworth, Illinois, and remained at that altitude for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 27C at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (KORD) was made from the east, heading 275.0 degrees, at 4 nautical miles and 1,252 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 27C was successful, with a touchdown point 71 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 106 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -228 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 240 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,295 meters, which was 40% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The total flight distance was 663 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 155 minutes. The aircraft used 5,334 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The RJ85 aircraft successfully landed on runway 27C at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.9%. The landing was conducted from the east, heading 275.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level. The plane touched down on the runway, which measured 3,237 meters in length, and the threshold height was reported as good.
The aircraft's speed during the final approach was within the expected range, with a threshold speed of 119 knots. Upon touchdown, the plane's speed was recorded at 106 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate, however, was only fair, coming in at -228 feet per minute. This indicates that the aircraft may have touched down slightly beyond the optimal rate of descent, but still managed to achieve a safe landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was reported as perfect, indicating that the plane was aligned with the runway centerline at the time of touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing consisted of a temperature of -2°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 240°. The crosswind was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind was moderate, at 2 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,295 meters was 40% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance for an aircraft of this size. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as perfect, indicating that the plane maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft achieved a high score due to its accurate and controlled approach and landing.
