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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,329 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 339 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 18 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 24L at CYUL Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport. The takeoff distance was 988 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 147 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -3 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots at 160 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Dorval, Quebec, Canada. The climb took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 69 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from 1,113 feet above sea level to 29,224 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,111 feet.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 3 miles northwest of VT39 Taylor Airport in Wolcott, Vermont, United States. This cruise phase lasted for 14 minutes and covered a distance of 118 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 3 miles southwest of Kennebunkport, Maine, United States. The descent took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 44 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing in altitude from 29,594 feet above sea level to 5,668 feet above sea level, a decrease of 23,925 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile north of Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, United States. This cruise phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles northeast of Essex, Massachusetts, United States. The descent took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 19 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing in altitude from 5,338 feet above sea level to 1,295 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,043 feet.
The final approach to runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 200.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,270 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 126 knots and a touchdown rate of -135 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 338 meters, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots at 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 13 knots. The total landing distance was 1,234 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took only 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 267 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 76 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,813 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KBOS Logan International Airport on runway 22L, achieving a high score of 97.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 200.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 135 knots, which is within the recommended range for a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown speed of 126 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -135 feet per minute (fpm). The touchdown distance of 338 meters was also within the acceptable range. However, there was a slight deviation from the centerline, with the aircraft touching down 6.8 meters off-center. This minor misalignment did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from 210°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and improve the landing performance. The total landing distance of 1,234 meters was 53% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was excellent, with the aircraft maintaining a straight course and aligning well with the runway centerline. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft performing well in terms of speed, distance, and alignment. The minor deviation from the centerline was the only notable issue, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
