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.
Side view — the last 1,533 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,533 m of the 3,811 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 540 m past the threshold — beyond 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 16 at the Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima, Peru. The takeoff distance was 874 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 154 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 210 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was also 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead the Jorge Chavez International Airport and continued to a height of 39,159 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,013 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 140 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 29 miles southwest of Paracas, Peru, and lasted for 131 minutes, covering a distance of 1,068 nautical miles. The descent started 13 miles southeast of the Pedro Villarroel C. Airport in Combarbala, Chile, and continued to a height of 2,824 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,244 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17R at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile, was made from the north, heading 177.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,258 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 17R, which had a length of 3,811 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 134 knots.
The touchdown point was 125 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 130 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -283 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 80 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,454 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,337 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 182 minutes. The aircraft used 15,904 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER successfully landed at SCEL Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport, with a final approach score of 97.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north, heading 177.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,258 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed on runway 17R, which has a length of 3,811 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 134 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the final approach.
However, there were a few areas for improvement. The touchdown point was 125 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which may indicate that the pilot could have made a slightly earlier touchdown. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 130 knots was a little fast, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to reduce the aircraft's speed further before touchdown. The touchdown rate of -283 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, but could be improved.
Despite these minor issues, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions were also favorable, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 80°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, and the headwind component was zero.
The total landing distance was 1,454 meters, which is 38% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's speed and descent rate effectively. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating good control and decision-making skills. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown point.
