Monitor your speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,202 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 549 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 20 at Nadi International Airport (NFFN) in a duration of 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 20, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 161 kt and departed after using 2,033 m of runway, representing 62 % of the available length; ambient temperature was 23 °C with wind from 150° at 9 kt, including an 8 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt head-wind.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north of Nadi, rising from 999 ft asl to 34,007 ft asl - a gain of 33,008 ft - over 22 minutes while traversing 138 nm.
Cruise began at latitude -16.6743673 and longitude 175.5011125, persisting for 118 minutes and covering 884 nm at level flight.
Descent was initiated about 10 miles north of Ngorangora Airport (AGGK), descending from 34,006 ft asl to 1,316 ft asl - a loss of 32,691 ft - in 19 minutes and spanning 117 nm.
The final approach to runway 24 at Honiara International Airport (AGGH) was flown from the east on a heading of 248.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,280 ft agl; local conditions were 23 °C with wind from 200° at 3 kt, a 2 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.
Landing on runway 24 was achieved with a threshold speed of 138 kt; touchdown occurred 136 m beyond the touchdown zone at 131 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 190 fpm and a lateral deviation of 5.8 m from the centreline; the runway length is 2,202 m and the total landing distance recorded was 1,311 m, equivalent to 60 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,146 nm, taking 169 and consuming 7,011 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320 established a final approach to runway 24 at AGGH Honiara International Airport from the east, tracking a heading of 248.0° at 4 nm and 1,280 ft agl. Local weather was 23 °C with wind 3 kt from 200°, providing a 2 kt headwind and a 2 kt crosswind component. The approach was noted as having good threshold height.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good speed of 138 kt and began the flare in a stable manner, consistent with the reported good threshold height.
Touchdown occurred 136 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 131 kt, described as a little fast. The vertical rate was good at minus 190 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 5.8 m from the centreline. Total landing distance measured 1,311 m, representing 60 % of the 2,202 m runway.
Rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining well aligned to the runway centreline during deceleration.
Refine the touchdown by moderating speed slightly to better match the aim point and reduce the overshoot beyond the touchdown zone. Adjust the final flare to improve lateral alignment and keep the touchdown point within a few metres of the centreline.
