Monitor your 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.

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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,192 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,535 ft 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 area to the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 28 at KDLZ Delaware Municipal Airport. The takeoff distance was 838 feet, which is 20% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 1 knot was present. The aircraft began its enroute climb after departing the airport, starting from an altitude of 2,003 feet above sea level and climbing to 8,512 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,508 feet in just 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The enroute climb continued until the aircraft reached a point 1 mile northeast of 63OI Bowman Field Delaware, where it leveled off and entered a cruise phase. This phase lasted for 18 minutes and covered a distance of 89 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting from an altitude of 8,493 feet above sea level and descending to 2,503 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,990 feet in 6 minutes and covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at KCAK Akron Canton Regional Airport was made from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 227.0° at an altitude of 1,313 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 93 knots and a touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 1,532 feet, which is 32% of the runway length.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as at the time of departure, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. There was a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 36 feet. The total landing distance was 2,639 feet, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 36 feet.
The flight concluded with a taxiing period from the runway to the parking area, which took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 113 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 34 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used 0 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KCAK Akron Canton Regional Airport, achieving a score of 95.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northeast, heading 227.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,313 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 106 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 1,532 feet, which is within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 93 knots was also good, and the touchdown rate of -178 feet per minute (fpm) was within the desired range. However, there was a slight issue with the runway touchdown position, as it was misaligned by 36 feet from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing conditions relatively calm. The total landing distance of 2,639 feet was 32% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly off-centre, again by 36 feet from the centreline. While this is not ideal, it did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall safety of the landing. Overall, the pilot's performance was satisfactory, and the aircraft landed safely at KCAK Akron Canton Regional Airport.
