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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five 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 2,401 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 614 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 11 at SBEG Eduardo Gomes International Airport in Manaus, Brazil. The takeoff distance was 1,700 meters, which was 63% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 34 degrees Celsius and winds of 2 knots at 40 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 1 knot. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile east of the airport and continued for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 131 nautical miles. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,278 feet above sea level to 34,695 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,418 feet.
Following the climb, the enroute level cruise started 18 miles south east of SBUU Itapiranga Airport Urucara, Brazil, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 27 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 18 miles west of Barreirinha, Brazil, and descended from 34,791 feet above sea level to 1,505 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,286 feet, in 29 minutes, covering a distance of 153 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 10 at SBSN Santarém - Maestro Wilson Fonseca International Airport was made from the west, heading 81.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,320 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 10, which had a length of 2,401 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 151 knots. The touchdown point was 202 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 145 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -90 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius and winds of 4 knots at 90 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,368 meters, which was 57% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxiing to the parking from the runway took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 317 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 62 minutes. The aircraft used 2,704 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Santarém - Maestro Wilson Fonseca International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.3%. The final approach to runway 10 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 81.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,320 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 151 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing conditions. The touchdown point was located 202 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 145 kt was a bit faster than the ideal speed, but the touchdown rate of -90 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision in navigating the aircraft to the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 31°C and a gentle wind of 4 kt at 90°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the headwind component was 4 kt, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,368 meters was 57% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. The high score of 98.3% reflects the pilot's skill and experience in navigating the Boeing 737-800 aircraft to a safe and successful landing.
