Arrival
Reduce power earlier on approach to be at 118 kt by the stabilisation gate, not just by the threshold.
What happened: The approach was too fast at the stabilisation gate, crossing the threshold at 121 kt against a VREF of 118 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 118 kt at the stabilisation gate.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 52 kt FAST on the reference speed of 118 kt.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,289 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 338 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Munich Airport (EDDM), the RJ85 aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 26L, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 1,593 meters, or 40% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 143 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 19°C, with a gentle headwind of 3 knots and a crosswind of 1 knot.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb phase, which started overhead Hallbergmoos in Bavaria, Germany. The aircraft successfully ascended from an initial altitude of 2,429 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 29,768 feet, a vertical increase of 27,338 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 124 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered its enroute level cruise phase, which lasted for 28 minutes and spanned 219 nautical miles, before initiating its enroute descent phase. The descent phase, which began 1 mile east of Krusenhagen in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany, saw the aircraft descend from 29,648 feet to 1,326 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,322 feet, in 23 minutes and covering 131 nautical miles.
Upon reaching the final approach phase, the aircraft began its descent towards runway 22L at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (EKCH), approaching from the northeast at a heading of 221.0°. The aircraft landed smoothly on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 349 meters, or 28% of the runway length, and a touchdown speed of 114 knots. The touchdown rate was a smooth -123 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Following a successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 484 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 1 hour and 29 minutes, and the aircraft utilized 2,904 kilograms of fuel during the journey.
The aircraft, an RJ85, successfully executed a final approach to runway 22L at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport from the north east, aligning with the heading of 221.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 122 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it touched down at a distance of 349 meters, with a speed of 114 kt, and a smooth touchdown rate of -123 feet per minute.
The touchdown characteristics were impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect runway touchdown alignment. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 18°C and a gentle headwind of 3 kt, contributed to a smooth and controlled touchdown. The aircraft's ability to adapt to the wind conditions was evident, as it maintained a steady course and speed throughout the approach. The touchdown speed and distance were both within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed landing.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect centerline alignment. The total landing distance of 927 meters, which accounted for only 28% of the runway length, was a testament to the aircraft's excellent braking performance. The pilot's skill and experience were evident in the smooth and controlled rollout, which brought the aircraft to a stop without any issues. Overall, the landing was scored 97.7%, a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's capabilities.
