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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 2,862 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 224 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Berlin Brandenburg Airport, the RJ85 aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As it reached the runway threshold, the aircraft initiated its departure roll on runway 24R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 145 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,234 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway length, was achieved in a smooth and efficient manner.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 28,462 feet above sea level in 21 minutes and covering a distance of 113 nautical miles. The climb phase was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with the aircraft eventually reaching its cruising altitude. The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted for 64 minutes and covered a distance of 462 nautical miles, with the aircraft maintaining a steady speed and altitude. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile east of Pont-en-Royans, France. The descent phase was completed in 23 minutes, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 29,009 feet to 1,896 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 134 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31R at Marseille Provence Airport was initiated from the southeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 314.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,809 feet above ground level. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 112 knots and a touchdown distance of 226 meters, which accounted for 25% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was firm at -310 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance of 718 nautical miles was achieved in 121 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 4,466 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft touched down on runway 31R at LFML Marseille Provence Airport with a firm touchdown rate of -310 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 112 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown distance of 226 m was also satisfactory. The threshold speed of 117 kt was well managed, allowing for a smooth transition from the approach to the touchdown phase.
The approach quality was excellent, with a perfect runway touchdown alignment. The aircraft maintained its centreline alignment throughout the rollout phase, demonstrating precise control and coordination. The total landing distance of 828 m, which accounted for only 25% of the runway length, was impressive, indicating a high degree of precision and control. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 24 °C and a gentle headwind of 2 kt, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The overall performance of the aircraft was outstanding, with a score of 98.3%. The crew's ability to manage the approach and touchdown phases effectively, combined with the aircraft's responsiveness and stability, resulted in a smooth and controlled landing. The perfect runway rollout alignment further underscored the crew's skill and attention to detail, making this a truly exceptional landing.
