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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,441 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 299 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A321 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Göteborg Landvetter Airport, ESGG. This process took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 21, with a takeoff distance of 1,183 meters, which accounted for 36% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 168 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 9°C temperature and a wind speed of 29 knots at 239 degrees. The crosswind component was 16 knots, while the headwind component was 24 knots. After departing from Göteborg, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of the airport. The climb took 22 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,465 feet above sea level to 35,400 feet, an increase of 33,935 feet. The enroute climb covered a distance of 120 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile east of Porsgrunn, Norway. The descent took 31 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 35,400 feet to 1,441 feet, a decrease of 33,959 feet. The enroute descent covered a distance of 155 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17 at Bergen Airport, Flesland, was made from the north, heading 168.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,280 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 17, which had a length of 2,441 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 132 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 298 meters, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -409 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 11°C temperature and a wind speed of 19 knots at 190 degrees. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 18 knots.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 282 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 62 minutes. The aircraft used 3,362 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at ENBR Bergen Airport, Flesland, with a score of 97.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 168.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good control, and the aircraft touched down on runway 17, which has a length of 2,441 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 132 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown distance of 298 meters was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 128 knots was good. However, the touchdown rate was slightly hard at -409 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.7 meters, which may be due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots from 190°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 6 knots, while the headwind component was 18 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly hard touchdown rate.
The total landing distance of 1,352 meters was 55% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained good control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with good control and precision, and the aircraft came to a stop safely on the runway.
