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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,808 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 365 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 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 23 at DIYO Yamoussoukro Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,273 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 141 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 71 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and there was a 1-knot tailwind. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile southwest of DIYO Yamoussoukro Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,668 feet above sea level to 38,539 feet above sea level. This climb, which covered 232 nautical miles, took 34 minutes and involved an increase of 36,871 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 45 miles north of Kintampo, Ghana. This phase lasted for 157 minutes and covered 1,282 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 24 miles northwest of Oum Hadjer, Chad. The descent, which took 10 minutes, involved a decrease of 36,013 feet from an altitude of 39,018 feet above sea level to 3,005 feet above sea level. This descent covered 86 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at FTTC Abeche Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 273.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,220 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 27 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 367 meters, which was 32% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 126 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -206 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 340 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and there was a 1-knot headwind. The total landing distance was 912 meters, and the taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,605 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 207 minutes. The aircraft used 8,411 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at FTTC Abeche Airport, achieving a score of 99.8%. The final approach to runway 27 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 273.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,220 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 131 knots. The touchdown distance of 367 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 126 knots was also good. However, the touchdown rate of -206 feet per minute was only fair, indicating that the aircraft could have been brought down to the ground more smoothly.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 340°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot, which did not pose a significant challenge to the landing.
The total landing distance of 912 meters was only 32% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, showing that the aircraft was well under control during the landing and rollout phases.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and handling during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
