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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,667 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 316 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 area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a British Aerospace 146-100, then departed from runway 27 at London City Airport (EGLC), a short runway with a length of 974 meters, which is 73% of the runway's total length. The takeoff distance was 974 meters, and the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 129 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots at a direction of 20 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead London City Airport and continued to an altitude of 27,783 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,739 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 44 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 2 miles west of Lavenham, Suffolk, England, and lasted for 93 minutes, covering a distance of 653 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles east of Hoegsjoe, Soedermanland County, Sweden, and continued to an altitude of 2,981 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,715 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 79 nautical miles. The descent was followed by a brief level cruise, which started 1 mile southwest of Saltsjoebaden, Stockholm County, Sweden, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 30 at Stockholm-Bromma Airport (ESSB) was made from the southeast, heading 305.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,547 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 30, which has a length of 1,667 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was a little below the target speed at 106 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 315 meters, and the touchdown speed was 96 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was also good at -170 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots at a direction of 30 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 815 meters, which is 49% of the runway's total length.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 790 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 137 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 4,599 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The British Aerospace 146-100 aircraft successfully landed at ESSB Stockholm-Bromma Airport, achieving a score of 94.3%. The final approach to runway 30 was initiated from the south east, heading 305.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,547 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 106 kt, which was slightly below the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 315 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 96 kt was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -170 feet per minute was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
Despite the good performance in terms of speed and distance, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 7 kt at 30°. The crosswind component was 7 kt, while the headwind component was 1 kt. These conditions were likely to have had a minimal impact on the aircraft's performance during the landing.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a good score of 94.3%. However, there were some minor issues with the alignment of the touchdown and rollout positions, which may require further attention and improvement.
