See Arrival Final 4
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 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,163 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 170 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 area to the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 25 at CYOW Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. The takeoff distance was 994 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 229 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, while the headwind was 2 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 30 minutes to reach a height of 38,093 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,736 feet from the initial altitude of 1,357 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 175 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles north of Barrie, Ontario. This phase lasted for 143 minutes and covered a distance of 892 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles south of Sedgwick, Kansas. The descent took 5 minutes to reduce the altitude from 38,034 feet to 4,641 feet, a decrease of 33,394 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 175 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead Turpin, Oklahoma. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 35 at KLBL Liberal Mid-America Regional Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 360 degrees at an altitude of 1,596 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 35 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 123 knots, which was slightly faster than the recommended threshold speed of 125 knots. The touchdown distance was 170 meters, which was within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 310 degrees.
The total landing distance was 662 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,257 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 187 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 8,784 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at KLBL Liberal Mid-America Regional Airport, achieving a high score of 99.4%. The final approach to runway 35 was conducted from the south, with the aircraft heading 360.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,596 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for touchdown. The threshold speed of 125 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach. However, the touchdown speed of 123 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate.
The touchdown rate of -273 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was also 2 knots. These conditions were favorable for the landing, allowing the aircraft to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.
The total landing distance of 662 meters was 31% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot was able to manage the aircraft's speed and descent rate effectively, resulting in a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for taxiing and that the pilot was able to maintain control during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good pilot skills and aircraft performance.
