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: six 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.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,514 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 260 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Sarajevo International Airport (LQSA), the aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 29, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 135 knots. The takeoff distance of 247 meters accounted for only 12% of the runway length, demonstrating a smooth and efficient departure.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it traversed a distance of 91 nautical miles in 15 minutes, ascending from 2,699 feet above sea level to 30,624 feet. The climb was initiated overhead Sarajevo, and the aircraft continued on its northeasterly course, eventually entering a level cruise phase 6 miles north of Omarska. This phase lasted for 9 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 79 nautical miles. The subsequent descent phase, which began 4 miles north of Radovica, saw the aircraft descend from 30,231 feet to 3,316 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 93 nautical miles.
Upon approaching Klagenfurt Airport (LOWK), the aircraft initiated its final approach to runway 10L from the west, aligning itself with the runway at 3 nautical miles and 1,812 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 120 knots, and the touchdown distance of 262 meters was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 114 knots was slightly higher than desired, and the touchdown rate of -234 feet per minute was fair. The aircraft landed 3.8 meters off-centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 269 nautical miles, and the aircraft consumed 833 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which lasted 51 minutes.
The final approach to runway 10L at LOWK Klagenfurt Airport from the west was executed with good quality, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 102.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,812 feet above ground level. The approach was characterized by a stable descent, with the aircraft touching down at a good threshold height. The threshold speed of 120 knots was also well managed, indicating a smooth transition from the approach to the landing phase.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed of 114 knots was slightly above the ideal, resulting in a fair touchdown rate of -234 feet per minute. The touchdown distance of 262 meters was, however, within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.8 meters, which may have been due to the crosswind component of 16 knots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind of 16 knots at 30°, may have also contributed to the slight misalignment.
The total landing distance of 966 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 9.9 meters, which may have been due to the aircraft's deceleration and directional control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of proficiency, earning a score of 96.7%.
