See Arrival Final 2
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.

Side view — the last 1,751 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,751 m of the 3,287 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 497 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A321 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, taking approximately 5 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 23, with a takeoff distance of 1,003 meters, which is 36% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 158 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a 25-knot headwind at 230 degrees. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile northwest of Winterhude, Germany, and reached an altitude of 33,237 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,200 feet in 19 minutes, covering 101 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 2 miles southwest of Tommerup Stationsby, Denmark, and lasting 9 minutes, covering 77 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 5 miles north of EKGR Grenaa Airfield, Denmark, and descended from 32,893 feet to 2,488 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,405 feet in 17 minutes, covering 88 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting overhead Stenkullen, Sweden, and lasting 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 2 miles east of OExeryd, Sweden, and descended from 2,093 feet to 913 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,181 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a climb phase, starting 1 mile north of Göteborg Landvetter Airport, Sweden, and climbed from 900 feet to 2,910 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,010 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase began 3 miles southeast of Benareby, Sweden, and lasted 3 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 03 at Göteborg Landvetter Airport began from the southwest, heading 26.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,275 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 03, which is 3,287 meters long, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was good at 135 knots, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 129 knots.
The touchdown point was 82 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was fair at -248 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were 7°C temperature and a 14-knot headwind at 19 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 14 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,671 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took approximately 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 298 nautical miles, taking 65 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,372 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at ESGG Göteborg Landvetter Airport, achieving a high score of 99.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 26.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.
The temperature at the time of landing was 7°C, with a moderate wind speed of 14 knots blowing from a direction of 19°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot, while the aircraft experienced a significant headwind of 14 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot maintained good control of the aircraft, ensuring a smooth and stable approach.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 82 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is considered acceptable. However, the touchdown speed of 129 knots was slightly higher than the recommended threshold speed of 135 knots. This may have contributed to a slightly higher touchdown rate of -248 feet per minute (fpm), which is considered fair.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach. The total landing distance of 1,671 meters was 51% of the available runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft maintained a very good alignment with the runway, ensuring a smooth and controlled deceleration. Overall, the landing was executed well, with the pilot demonstrating good skills and judgment in managing the aircraft's approach and touchdown.
