Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Rotate the moment the speed tape reaches 139 kt, not after it.
What happened: Rotation was held until 158 kt, 19 kt past the 139 kt rotation target. Carrying that much extra speed into rotation usually adds unwanted energy right at liftoff.
Arrival
Fly a stabilized approach and flare to touch down at the target point of 457 m.
What happened: Touchdown occurred past the normal point, landing 152 m beyond the target distance. This pattern typically reduces the margin available for stopping before the runway end.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,591 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,591 m of the 3,047 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 609 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A319 taxied from the parking area to runway 23 at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, a movement that lasted 10 minutes and covered 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 23, the aircraft used 1,639 m, representing 51 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 158 kt. Ambient conditions were 26 °C with wind 9 kt from 280°, including a 7 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind.
Climb began 1 mile west of CYYZ, with the airplane climbing from 1,610 ft asl to 26,852 ft asl, an increase of 25,242 ft achieved in 13 minutes while covering 71 nm.
Level cruise started 2 miles north-east of CNS6 Straffordville Airport and continued for 5 minutes, during which 30 nm were flown.
Descent was initiated overhead COS2 Iona Station, descending from 26,886 ft asl to 2,119 ft asl, a loss of 24,767 ft over 21 minutes and a distance of 95 nm.
The final approach to runway 22R at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport was flown from the north-east, on a heading of 208.0° at 4 nm and 1,460 ft agl.
Touchdown on runway 22R, whose length is 3,047 m, occurred with a threshold speed of 129 kt; the aircraft crossed the touchdown zone 194 m beyond its start, at a speed of 118 kt and a vertical rate of minus 179 fpm. Good threshold height was reported, and runway touchdown alignment was very good. Local weather was 27 °C with wind 10 kt from 284°, a 10 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind. Total landing distance measured 1,512 m, 50 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft decelerated to a stop within the remaining runway.
The A319 taxied from the runway to the parking area in 6 minutes, covering 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered 206 nm, required 55 minutes, and consumed 1,897 kg of fuel.
The Cessna 172 entered the final approach to runway 27 at EGWO Eddsfield Airfield from the east on a heading of 263.0° at 4 nm and 1,276 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At the threshold the runway length was 667 m, the threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 62 kt.
Touchdown occurred well beyond the aim point, using more than 50 % of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 60 kt, described as a little fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at minus 210 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 493 m, representing 74 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.
With a score of 92.1 % the landing was strong overall; concentrating on achieving an earlier touchdown point near the 300 m aim point and reducing the touchdown speed closer to the 62 kt threshold speed will tighten the remaining margins.
