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 2,694 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 331 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport, LFBO. This process took approximately 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 32R, with a takeoff distance of 1,240 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 1 knot at 324 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, while the headwind was 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the Toulouse-Blagnac Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,500 feet above sea level to 27,623 feet, an increase of 26,123 feet, in 12 minutes and covering a distance of 65 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles north of Saint-Eutrope-de-Born, France. This phase lasted for 141 minutes and covered a distance of 95 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile northwest of Bignay, France. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 27,519 feet to 634 feet, a decrease of 26,885 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 85 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at Nantes Atlantique Airport, LFRS, was made from the northeast, with a heading of 207.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 527 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 123 knots and a touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the touchdown distance was 333 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 9°C temperature and a wind speed of 11 knots at 230 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 10 knots. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, which took approximately 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 250 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 61 minutes. The aircraft used 2,116 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at Nantes Atlantique Airport, achieving a high score of 98.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 207.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 527 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on runway 21, which has a length of 2,694 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed of 133 knots was also within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 333 meters was well within the expected parameters, and the touchdown speed of 123 knots was also good. The touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 230°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the landing, and the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach.
The total landing distance of 1,169 meters was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a short distance, showcasing the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft was able to touch down safely and smoothly on the runway. The high score of 98.9% reflects the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance in challenging weather conditions.
