Keep the wings level 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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 218 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 RJ100, then departed from runway 34R at Tokyo Haneda International Airport (RJTT), with a takeoff distance of 1,096 meters, which was 37% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 139 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 13 knots at a direction of 10 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead Tokyo Haneda International Airport and took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,039 feet above sea level to 29,267 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,228 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles northeast of Heda, Japan, and lasted for 14 minutes, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles south of Ishiki, Japan, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 29,357 feet above sea level to 25,038 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,319 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 23 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 7 miles west of RJOE JGSDF Akeno Airfield Ise, Japan, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 13 miles southeast of Nabari, Japan, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 25,034 feet above sea level to 1,854 feet above sea level, a decrease of 23,180 feet in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 32L at Osaka International Airport (RJOO) was made from the southeast, with a heading of 64.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 1,725 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 32L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 216 meters, which was 25% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 111 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -369 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 23 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 739 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. 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 233 nautical miles, and the flight took 59 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 2,114 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an RJ100, successfully landed at Osaka International Airport (RJOO) on runway 32L. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 64.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 1,725 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot's performance during the approach was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 117 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 216 meters, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed of 111 knots was also within the recommended parameters. However, the touchdown rate was slightly firm at -369 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
One notable aspect of the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-center by 8.2 meters. This deviation from the centerline may have been due to various factors, including wind conditions or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 23°.
The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions may have contributed to the slight deviation from the centerline. Despite this, the total landing distance of 739 meters was only 25% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with some minor deviations from ideal performance. However, the pilot's ability to maintain control and navigate the aircraft safely to the runway was evident, and the landing was completed without incident.
