Slow the descent speed
See Enroute Descent
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.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,299 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 528 m past the threshold — beyond 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 19 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 36L at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, with a takeoff distance of 821 meters, which accounted for 23% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 131 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 300 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 19 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Vijfhuizen in the province of Noord-Holland, the Netherlands. The climb took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 85 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,042 feet above sea level to 30,293 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,251 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Garnwerd in the province of Groningen, the Netherlands. This phase lasted for 27 minutes and covered a distance of 168 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles south of Harby in the Region Syddanmark, Denmark. The descent took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 94 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 30,608 feet above sea level to 3,421 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,186 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 3 miles east of Charlottenlund in the Region Hovedstaden, Denmark. This phase lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles north of Barsebaeckshamn in the Skane County, Sweden. The descent took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 2,960 feet above sea level to 1,284 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,675 feet.
The final approach to runway 22L at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport was made from the north-east, with a heading of 221.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 22L, which had a length of 3,299 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 112 knots.
The touchdown point was 94 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 98 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was smooth at -130 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 893 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 377 nautical miles, and the flight took 89 minutes, using 2,580 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft, identified as RJ70, successfully landed at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport on runway 22L. The final approach was initiated from the north east, aligning with a heading of 221.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, with a score of 98.4%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 98 kt, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 112 kt. The touchdown point was located 94 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but still within a manageable distance. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -130 feet per minute (fpm), which is considered optimal for a safe landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a gentle wind of 8 kt from a direction of 269°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 6 kt, which did not pose a significant challenge to the aircraft's landing. The runway length of 3,299 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely.
The total landing distance of 893 meters was 27% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. This is a testament to the aircraft's good handling characteristics and the pilot's skillful execution of the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing.
Overall, the landing of RJ70 at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and the pilot executing a smooth and controlled landing.
