Be on speed by the gate
See Arrival Approach
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 305 m and 152 m above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 305 m gate: speed 9 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 140 kt.
At the 152 m gate: speed 7 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 140 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,939 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,939 m of the 3,148 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 648 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 2.27 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight departed from Vienna International Airport (LOWW) in Austria, where it began its journey down runway 29. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 161 kt, achieving a takeoff distance of 1,697 m, which represented 49% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 14 °C, with a gentle headwind of 6 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from LOWW, it transitioned into a steady enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 9,061 m asl after a 13-minute ascent of 8,749.6 m. The climb phase was followed by a 22-minute level cruise, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 166 nm. The flight then began a series of descents, initially from 9,074 m asl to 6,092 m asl over a distance of 38 nm in 5 minutes. The aircraft continued to descend, eventually reaching an altitude of 1,298 m asl after a 43-nm, 8-minute descent from 6,024 m asl. The final approach to Zürich Airport (LSZH) was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft touching down on runway 14 after a total landing distance of 1,860 m, which represented 59% of the available runway length.
The flight concluded with a taxiing period of 4 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 351 nm, with a total flight time of 64 minutes. The aircraft consumed 2,569 kg of fuel during the journey. The landing was characterized by a slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, with the aircraft touching down 233 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 127 kt was within acceptable limits, but the touchdown rate of -2.4 m/s was considered hard.
The final approach to runway 14 at LSZH Zürich Airport was initiated from the north west, with the aircraft heading 137.0° at 4 nm and 393.9 meters above ground level. The approach quality was good, with a satisfactory threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 130 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing configuration.
The aircraft touched down 233 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -2.4 meters per second, suggesting a slightly aggressive touchdown. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.9 meters from the centreline, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a calm wind of 0 knots at 225°.
The total landing distance was 1,860 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.9 meters from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal path. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 87.4%. While there were some deviations from the optimal landing configuration, the aircraft was able to maintain control and come to a safe stop.
