Slow the descent 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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,043 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,043 m of the 3,000 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 573 m past the threshold — beyond 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 36 at Milano Linate Airport (LIML). The takeoff distance was 1,359 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 151 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 39 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was also 3 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the Idroscalo Milan (RB11) at an altitude of 417 meters above sea level. The climb continued until the aircraft reached an altitude of 10,616 meters above sea level, an increase of 10,199.8 meters in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 132 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 2 miles north-west of San Casciano in Val di Pesa (Toscana, Italy) and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 210 nautical miles. The descent from the cruise altitude started 39 miles south-west of Ponza (Lazio, Italy) and continued until the aircraft reached an altitude of 412 meters above sea level, a decrease of 10,280.9 meters in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 130 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at Falcone-Borsellino Airport (LICJ) was made from the north-east, heading 247.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 397.3 meters above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 3,000 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 150 knots. The touchdown point was 162 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 142 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -1.0 meters per second, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at 160 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,967 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight distance was 482 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 88 minutes. The aircraft used 3,784 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Falcone–Borsellino Airport, with a score of 98.2%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 247.0° at an altitude of 397.3 meters above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being good. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 150 knots. The touchdown point was 162 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 142 knots was also a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -1.0 meters per second was good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 160°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The aircraft's landing distance of 1,967 meters was 66% 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 successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there were some minor deviations from the target speeds and touchdown point, which may be addressed in future training or operations to further improve the landing performance.
