A method can include determining that an aircraft is on approach to a runway. The method can include determining a flight path vector (FPV) location of the aircraft based at least in part on a projected landing location with respect to the runway and determining a current airspeed of the aircraft. The method can also include performing at least one of the following: issuing a landing short alert to a pilot of the aircraft if the FPV location is at or before the runway threshold, issuing an airspeed caution alert if the FPV location is between the runway threshold and the target runway location and if the current airspeed is below a landing short envelope, and determining not to issue an alert if the FPV location is between the runway threshold and the target runway location and if the current airspeed is at or above the landing short envelope.
