Keep the wings level on final
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,512 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 404 m touchdown sits inside 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 13 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 04R at Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,655 meters, which was 56% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, and climbed from an altitude of 1,048 feet above sea level to 30,857 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,810 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 80 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 1 mile north of Cesana Torinese, Italy, and lasted for 58 minutes, covering a distance of 302 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile west of Hosingen, Luxembourg, and descended from 30,384 feet above sea level to 4,227 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,157 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles south of Oirschot, Netherlands, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Hooge Mierde, Netherlands, and descended from 3,866 feet above sea level to 1,335 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,531 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 03 at Eindhoven Airport was made from the southwest, heading 38.0°, at an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level, and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was made on runway 03, which had a length of 2,512 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 149 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 407 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 144 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -208 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 350°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,300 meters, which was 52% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 493 nautical miles, taking 95 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,148 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Eindhoven Airport, achieving a score of 99.2%. The final approach to runway 03 was initiated from the southwest, with a heading of 38.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 149 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 407 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a slightly higher touchdown rate of -208 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.6 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 350°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was also 7 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,300 meters was 52% 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 pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and avoided any significant deviations from the centerline.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and the pilots maintaining control throughout the rollout phase. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway alignment, which may be addressed in future training or operations.
