Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
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 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 500 ft gate: centreline 1.7° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 6,587 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 6,587 ft of the 8,853 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,468 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from KBTV Burlington International Airport, the CRJ900 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. With a local temperature of 38°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 70°, the aircraft took off from runway 15, utilizing 73% of the available runway length of 5,677 feet. The liftoff speed was achieved at 162 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent.
As the CRJ900 climbed from 1,352 feet above sea level to 30,009 feet, it covered a distance of 85 nautical miles in 14 minutes, demonstrating a steady and efficient climb. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 30,009 feet for 60 minutes while covering 481 nautical miles. The crew's decision to initiate a descent from 30,002 feet to 24,023 feet, a decrease of 5,979 feet, was executed smoothly in just 3 minutes, covering 26 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to navigate through various enroute level cruise and descent phases, ultimately preparing for its final approach to runway 36R at KCLT Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
The CRJ900's final approach was executed from the south, with a heading of 355.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,184 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed smoothly on runway 36R, which had a length of 8,690 feet. The touchdown distance was 1,465 feet, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, both of which were within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance was 6,314 feet, utilizing 73% of the available runway length. Following a short taxiing period of 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile, the aircraft came to a stop in the parking area. The total flight distance was 729 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 116 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 7,746 pounds.
The CRJ900 touched down smoothly on runway 36R at KCLT Charlotte Douglas International Airport, showcasing exceptional approach quality. The aircraft descended from 1,184 feet above ground level (agl) at 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold, maintaining a steady heading of 355.0°. The approach was characterized by a good threshold height, allowing the pilots to maintain a safe margin above the runway surface.
As the CRJ900 touched down, it achieved a speed of 128 knots, well within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 1,465 feet was also satisfactory, considering the runway length of 8,690 feet. The touchdown rate of -140 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent. The aircraft's alignment with the runway centerline was perfect, both at touchdown and during the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 66°F and a gentle headwind of 2 knots, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.
The CRJ900's rollout was equally impressive, with perfect alignment along the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 6,314 feet, which accounted for 73% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was a testament to the pilots' skill and the aircraft's performance, earning a score of 99.9%. The combination of good approach quality, smooth touchdown, and precise rollout made for a successful landing on runway 36R at KCLT.
