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: 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 1,744 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,744 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 639 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 14 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 31L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The takeoff distance was 1,260 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 160 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile west of LHBP, rising from an altitude of 1,449 feet above sea level to 9,597 feet above sea level, an increase of 8,148 feet in just 6 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 17 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Tarnok and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 2 miles northeast of Val, decreasing its altitude from 9,598 feet above sea level to 3,017 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,582 feet in 9 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 31 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another level cruise phase 2 miles northeast of Ujhartyan, lasting for 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The descent phase resumed 1 mile south of Monor, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 2,897 feet above sea level to 1,689 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,208 feet in 2 minutes. This final descent covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 31R at LHBP, heading in a southeasterly direction at an altitude of 1,224 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 339 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
The aircraft landed on runway 31R, with the touchdown point being 222 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -70 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The total landing distance was 1,663 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 72 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 28 minutes. The aircraft used 1,345 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.3%. The final approach to runway 31R was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 312.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,224 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the touchdown point located 222 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -70 feet per minute (fpm) was also excellent, demonstrating a high degree of precision and control during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 339°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 7 knots, which the pilots effectively managed during the landing. The threshold height at 56 feet agl was slightly above the target, while the threshold speed of 139 knots was slightly below the target.
The total landing distance of 1,663 meters was 45% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control.
