Track the centreline on final
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 five 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 full 1,524 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 471 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A319, then departed from runway 10 at SPZO Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport in Cusco, Peru. The takeoff distance was 1,821 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 140 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 302 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of the airport and rising from an altitude of 11,638 feet above sea level to 37,470 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,832 feet in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 75 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 23 miles south of SPKI Kiteni and lasted for 27 minutes, covering a distance of 191 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles south east of Mariatana in Lima, Peru, and descending from 37,453 feet above sea level to 1,355 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,098 feet in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 55 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16R at SPJC Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima, Peru, was made from the north west, heading 154.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 2,823 meters, and the threshold height was good. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 131 knots.
The touchdown point was 130 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 125 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was good at -168 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 179 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,175 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.7 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 329 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 69 minutes. The aircraft used 2,473 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A319 aircraft successfully landed at SPJC Jorge Chavez International Airport on runway 16R. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 154.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 131 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 130 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 125 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -168 feet per minute, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 19.6 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issues.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a moderate headwind of 10 knots. The crosswind was relatively light at 5 knots, and the wind direction was from 179°. The total landing distance was 1,175 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway length. Unfortunately, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.7 meters from the centerline, indicating a potential issue with the aircraft's directional control during the landing roll.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to touchdown speed and runway alignment. However, the aircraft's performance was generally good, and the landing was completed within a reasonable distance.
