Hold the approach speed
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.

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 2,692 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 262 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a British Airways RJ100 aircraft, taking off from Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (LEMD) and landing at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG). The flight began with a taxiing period of 25 minutes from the parking area to the runway, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
As the aircraft departed from runway 36L, it achieved a liftoff speed of 145 knots, with a takeoff distance of 1,555 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 9°C, with no wind at the airport.
The enroute climb started approximately 2 miles northwest of Paracuellos de Jarama, where the aircraft ascended from 3,036 feet above sea level to 12,515 feet, an increase of 9,479 feet in just 5 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles. This was followed by a level cruise phase that lasted 6 minutes, covering 30 nautical miles, before the aircraft began another climb phase from 12,575 feet to 32,252 feet, an increase of 19,677 feet in 22 minutes, covering 131 nautical miles.
The flight then entered a prolonged level cruise phase, lasting 39 minutes, covering 267 nautical miles, before starting its descent phase from 32,223 feet to 19,327 feet, a decrease of 12,896 feet in 7 minutes, covering 44 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles, before beginning its final descent phase from 19,265 feet to 5,266 feet, a decrease of 13,999 feet in 11 minutes, covering 63 nautical miles.
The flight then entered another level cruise phase, lasting 9 minutes, covering 31 nautical miles, before starting its final descent phase from 5,048 feet to 1,658 feet, a decrease of 3,391 feet in 6 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27R at LFPG, heading 265.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,304 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 27R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 258 meters, a touchdown speed of 97 knots, and a touchdown rate of -623 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.8 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 160°.
The total landing distance was 1,154 meters, accounting for 43% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 15 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 623 nautical miles, taking 137 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,276 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The British Airways RJ100 aircraft successfully landed at Charles de Gaulle International Airport's runway 27R, achieving a score of 87.1%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 265.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,304 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 97 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 258 meters was also considered good. However, the touchdown rate was slightly heavy at -623 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slight loss of lift or a higher-than-ideal rate of descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.8 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 7°C, a wind speed of 10 knots from 160°, and a crosswind of 10 knots. The tailwind component was relatively minor at 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,154 meters was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to bring it to a stop safely.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot maintaining control throughout the rollout phase. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown rate and runway alignment, which may be addressed in future training or operations.
