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.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,185 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 290 m touchdown sits inside 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 approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 06 at GUCY Conakry International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,852 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 35 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 250 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of Conakry International Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile northeast of the airport. The climb took 40 minutes and covered a distance of 304 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,031 feet above sea level to 38,834 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,803 feet. The enroute level cruise started 21 miles southwest of GOTB Bakel Airport and lasted for 100 minutes, covering a distance of 818 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 33 miles west of Zag and took 20 minutes to descend from 38,344 feet above sea level to 2,672 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,672 feet. The descent covered a distance of 139 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another enroute level cruise, this time starting 8 miles south of Oulad Teima and lasting only 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at GMAD Al Massira Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 271.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,274 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 288 meters, which was 24% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 125 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -268 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 249 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 8 knots. The total landing distance was 768 meters, and the total flight distance was 1,274 nautical miles, taking a total of 169 minutes. The aircraft used 7,453 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at GMAD Al Massira Airport, achieving a high score of 99.2%. The final approach to runway 27 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 271.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 132 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 288 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach.
The touchdown speed of 125 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -268 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down to the ground more smoothly. However, this did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway at the moment of touchdown. This is a critical aspect of landing, as it ensures that the aircraft is properly positioned for rollout and reduces the risk of veering off the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 249°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 768 meters was 24% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the centerline of the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and management throughout the approach and landing phases.
