Lower the flaps fully and extend the landing gear
When flying over the “overrun” throttle down to 0% and and lift the nose up slightly to flare and reduce the descent rate
Use the wheel and speed brakes to slow down to taxi speed
Leave the runway using the first possible taxiway

Land on a runway using the following method:
Visually align with the runway centerline when possible.
Reduce throttle and use air brakes to reach approach speed while remaining above stall speed.
Lower flaps fully and extend landing gear prior to final approach.
When crossing the runway threshold, reduce throttle to 0% and slightly raise the nose to reduce descent rate.
Slowly lower the nose to allow the nose wheel to make contact with the runway.
Apply wheel brakes and air brakes to slow the aircraft (if available).
