Settle the descent rate
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate 2,296 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 5.2° against the runway's 3° and speed 61 kt FAST on the reference speed of 122 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,571 fpm, more than the glideslope needed and speed 30 kt FAST on the reference speed of 122 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,392 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,209 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing General Mitchell International Airport (KMKE) on runway 07R, the aircraft accelerated down the 7,404-foot runway, lifting off at a speed of 136 knots after a takeoff distance of 2,628 feet, which represented 34% of the available runway length. The initial climb phase was characterized by a steady ascent from 1,680 feet above sea level to 25,001 feet, a vertical gain of 23,321 feet, achieved in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 53 nautical miles. This climb phase commenced overhead Cudahy, Wisconsin, and continued until the aircraft reached the enroute level cruise altitude.
The enroute level cruise phase began 21 miles northeast of Evanston, Illinois, and lasted for 43 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 362 nautical miles. This phase was followed by a gradual descent from 25,001 feet to 2,647 feet, a decrease of 22,355 feet, achieved in 15 minutes and covering 85 nautical miles. The descent phase started 6 miles northeast of Jamestown, Tennessee, and continued until the aircraft began its final approach to runway 20 at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field), KCHA.
The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 198.0 degrees, at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,931 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on runway 20 at a speed of 104 knots, with a touchdown distance of 1,211 feet, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was fair at -219 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 25 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 2,871 feet, representing 39% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing the flight in 74 minutes and covering a total distance of 507 nautical miles, with no fuel consumption reported.
The final approach to runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) was executed from the north, with the aircraft heading 198.0° at 3 nm and 1,931 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 111 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing configuration.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 1,211 ft, and the touchdown speed of 104 kt was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -219 fpm was fair, suggesting a slight loss of control during the landing phase. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 25 ft from the centreline, which may have contributed to the fair touchdown rate. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 59 °F and a wind of 2 kt at 270°, were relatively calm, with a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
The total landing distance of 2,871 ft was 39% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 47 ft from the centreline, suggesting a slight deviation from the optimal path during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance of Aircraft C750 was satisfactory, with a score of 94.5%.
