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: gear still up.

Side view — the last 1,789 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,789 m of the 2,783 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 266 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking to the runway at SCTE El Tepual Airport, taking 5 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Departure roll occurred on runway 17, with a takeoff distance of 1,222 meters, which is 46% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 158 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 11°C temperature and a wind speed of 3 knots at 240°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of SCTE El Tepual Airport, Puerto Montt, and continued for 21 minutes, covering a distance of 137 nautical miles. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,257 feet above sea level to 35,010 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,753 feet.
After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 3 miles northeast of SCMA Puerto Marín Balmaceda Airport, Puerto Marin Balmaceda. This phase lasted for 61 minutes, covering a distance of 474 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 15 miles west of Rio Turbio, Argentina, and continued for 17 minutes, covering a distance of 120 nautical miles. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 35,030 feet above sea level to 7,780 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,250 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 11 miles northwest of SCID Marco Davison Bascur Airport, Punta Arenas. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, starting 7 miles northwest of SCID Marco Davison Bascur Airport, Punta Arenas, and continued for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 7,429 feet above sea level to 4,002 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,428 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 8 miles southeast of SCID Marco Davison Bascur Airport, Punta Arenas. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 11 miles east of SCCI President Carlos Ibañez del Campo International Airport, Punta Arenas. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 4,014 feet above sea level to 1,385 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,630 feet, in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at SCCI President Carlos Ibañez del Campo International Airport was made from the east, heading 269.0°, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 25 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 266 meters, which is 61% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots, but the touchdown rate was firm at -394 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 12°C temperature and a wind speed of 13 knots at 303°. The crosswind was 7 knots, and the headwind was 11 knots. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.4 meters from the centreline. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.5 meters from the centreline.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at SCCI President Carlos Ibañez del Campo International Airport, achieving a score of 89.6%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the east, heading 269.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 139 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than expected, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -394 feet per minute (fpm). The touchdown distance of 266 meters was within acceptable limits.
Despite the good overall performance, there were some areas for improvement. The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 15.4 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 13 knots at 303°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,707 meters was 61% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown position misalignment.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of alignment and touchdown speed. The pilots and air traffic controllers will need to review the performance and identify the root causes of the misalignments to ensure that future landings are more precise and efficient.
