Be on speed by the gate
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: speed 9 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 146 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 9 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 146 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,353 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,120 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Charlotte Douglas International Airport, the aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 36R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 160 knots. The takeoff distance of 5,589 feet accounted for 64% of the runway length, with a local temperature of 50°F and wind conditions of 4 knots at 75°.
As the aircraft climbed out of Charlotte Douglas International Airport, it reached an altitude of 7,808 feet above sea level in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase continued, with the aircraft reaching a cruising altitude of 35,997 feet above sea level after a 33-minute climb from 8,024 feet. This phase was followed by a prolonged level cruise, lasting 76 minutes and covering 314 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, gradually losing altitude as it approached its destination. The final approach to runway 12 at Miami International Airport was initiated from the north-west, with a heading of 120.0° and an altitude of 1,238 feet above ground level.
The aircraft landed safely on runway 12, with a touchdown distance of 1,106 feet and a touchdown speed of 133 knots. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance of 3,164 feet accounted for 38% of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 621 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 188 minutes and a fuel consumption of 9,889 pounds.
The aircraft touched down on runway 12 at KMIA Miami International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing for a smooth transition into the landing phase. The threshold speed was well-managed at 137 kt, indicating a high degree of control and precision. The touchdown distance of 1,106 ft was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 133 kt was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate of -274 fpm was slightly higher than ideal, suggesting a slight loss of control during the final stages of the landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's centreline alignment was slightly off, deviating by 15 ft from the centreline. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 75 °F and a gentle wind of 5 kt at 63 °, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component of 4 kt and headwind component of 3 kt were well within manageable limits.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by excellent alignment, with the aircraft tracking very closely to the centreline. The total landing distance of 3,164 ft, which accounted for 38% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was considered highly satisfactory, with a score of 98.5% reflecting the high degree of precision and control demonstrated throughout the approach and landing phases.
