Hold the approach speed
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 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 347 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a CRJ900 aircraft, which began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KGNV Gainesville Regional Airport. This process took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 29, with a takeoff distance of 1,303 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it started its enroute climb 1 mile west of KGNV Gainesville Regional Airport. The climb was from 1,169 feet above sea level to 26,730 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,561 feet, which was achieved in 11 minutes and covered a distance of 46 nautical miles. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 15°C.
The enroute level cruise started overhead FD61 Wright Farms Airport Live Oak, and it lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 148 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile south of Fort Valley, Georgia, and descended from 26,525 feet above sea level to 8,128 feet above sea level, a decrease of 18,397 feet, which was achieved in 9 minutes and covered a distance of 45 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile east of Jackson, Georgia, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 2 miles north of Jenkinsburg, Georgia, and the aircraft descended from 7,659 feet above sea level to 3,334 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,325 feet, which was achieved in 5 minutes and covered a distance of 17 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles north-east of 8GA0 Pinetree Heliport Cumming, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 4 miles south-east of Panthersville, Georgia, and the aircraft descended from 3,391 feet above sea level to 2,127 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,263 feet, which was achieved in 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport was from the east, with a heading of 270.0°, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,098 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 26R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 348 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -124 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.2 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 120°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the tailwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 1,351 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, which took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 283 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 65 minutes. The aircraft used 1,803 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The CRJ900 aircraft successfully landed at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 26R, achieving a score of 93.6%. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,098 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 124 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 128 knots. The touchdown distance of 348 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -124 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting a well-executed landing.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 4.2 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 13°C, a wind speed of 3 knots at 120°, and a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,351 meters was 49% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a relatively short distance.
