Track the centreline
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 seven 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: centreline 1.2° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 1.5° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 11,440 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 945 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departure from SOCA Cayenne – Félix Eboué Airport in French Guiana was marked by a smooth taxiing process, taking 26 minutes to cover the 3-nautical-mile distance to the runway. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 08, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 99 knots. The takeoff distance of 7,170 feet was 68% of the available runway length, indicating a relatively efficient departure.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a significant distance, covering 71 nautical miles in 20 minutes and ascending 24,545 feet. The climb phase was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 11 minutes and covering 58 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, decreasing altitude by 17,457 feet in 12 minutes and covering 64 nautical miles. This pattern of climb, cruise, and descent was repeated several times, with the aircraft making multiple level cruises and adjustments in altitude as it navigated through the airspace.
The final approach to runway 11 at SMJP Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport in Suriname was executed from the west, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 95.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,431 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 932 feet and a touchdown speed of 65 knots. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 50 feet from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned. Despite these minor deviations, the overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 1,486 feet and a fuel consumption of 495 pounds over a total flight distance of 246 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11 at SMJP Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport from the west was executed with a heading of 95.0° at 3 nm and 1,431 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height observed. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 75 kt, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal approach speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good characteristics, with a touchdown distance of 932 ft and a touchdown speed of 65 kt. The touchdown rate was perfect at -37 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 50 ft from the centreline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issues. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 77°F and a wind of 6 kt at 36°, resulted in a crosswind of 4 kt and a headwind of 3 kt.
The total landing distance of 1,486 ft was 13% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 50 ft from the centreline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, earning a score of 90.7%.
