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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,889 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
The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 15 at CYXT Northwest Regional Airport in Terrace-Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada. The takeoff distance was 1,101 meters, which accounted for 49% 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 25 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 170 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile south of the airport. The climb took 33 minutes to reach a maximum altitude of 38,704 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,005 feet from the initial altitude of 1,698 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 223 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which began 3 miles northeast of CAW5 Port Hardy Seaplane Base in Port Hardy, British Columbia, Canada. This cruise phase lasted for 98 minutes and covered a distance of 1,168 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles north of La Plata, New Mexico, United States. The descent took 15 minutes to reach a maximum altitude of 6,577 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,719 feet from the initial altitude of 39,297 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 136 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 08 at KABQ Albuquerque International Sunport was made from the west, with a heading of 90.0 degrees at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,251 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 08 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 224 meters, which was 21% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -148 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 19 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 109 degrees.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,534 nautical miles, and the total flight time was 155 minutes. The aircraft used 9,162 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at the Albuquerque International Sunport, achieving a score of 99.9%. The final approach to runway 08 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,251 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach and landing performance were impressive, with a good threshold height and speed of 129 knots. The touchdown distance of 224 meters was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 124 knots was smooth and controlled. The touchdown rate of -148 feet per minute (fpm) was particularly noteworthy, as it indicates a smooth and gentle touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 109°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind component was also 1 knot, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 809 meters was only 21% of the runway length, indicating a high degree of precision and control during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight and level path after touchdown.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 737-600 at the Albuquerque International Sunport was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the aircraft performing flawlessly in a variety of conditions. The high score of 99.9% reflects the exceptional skill and expertise of the pilots involved.
