Slow the descent speed
See Enroute Descent
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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.

Side view — the last 1,738 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,738 m of the 2,512 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 361 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 Toulouse-Blagnac Airport, taking 9 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll occurred on runway 14L, with a takeoff distance of 1,982 meters, which is 65% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 163 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 22°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 60°. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the headwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead Toulouse Garonne, where the aircraft climbed from 1,529 feet above sea level to 5,845 feet, an increase of 4,316 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Clermont-le-Fort, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 6,190 feet to 35,180 feet, an increase of 28,990 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 1 mile northeast of Chabanais, lasting 35 minutes and covering 273 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began an enroute descent from 35,447 feet to 18,210 feet, a decrease of 17,237 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 57 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 1 mile southeast of Lovendegem, lasting 2 minutes and covering 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, this time from 17,673 feet to 6,731 feet, a decrease of 10,942 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 41 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Prinsenbeek, lasting 3 minutes and covering 14 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, this time from 6,552 feet to 1,897 feet, a decrease of 4,655 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started overhead Zijtaart, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at Eindhoven Airport was made from the northeast, heading 215.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,269 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 21 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 364 meters and a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -365 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 5 knots at 10°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the tailwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,660 meters, which is 66% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxiing to the parking took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 585 nautical miles, taking 102 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,095 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at Eindhoven Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-east, heading 215.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,269 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.
The temperature at the time of landing was 10°C, with a gentle wind of 5 knots blowing from a direction of 10°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 5 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The aircraft's speed and altitude were well-controlled, with a threshold speed of 139 knots and a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly higher than desired, at 133 knots, but the touchdown distance of 364 meters was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was firm, at -365 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision.
The total landing distance of 1,660 meters was 66% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot executed a smooth and efficient landing, with minimal drag and optimal use of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The high score of 98.5% reflects the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance.
