Narrative:

During our flight to jfk; I was pilot flying. Cleared down to 2000 feet for the approach while being vectored. We had a few turns for basically a right downwind for the ILS 4R into jfk. Our final turn to join the approach was a heading that brought us just past the final approach fix instead of a heading that allowed us to join before the final approach fix. Again; day VMC prevailed so we were not concerned about obstacle clearance. Airport was in sight continuously. Once the localizer began to capture; I disconnected the autopilot and began a descent in an attempt to capture the glide slope which was below us now (we were just past the FAF). I attempted to maintain 1500 FPM or less but exceeded slightly; to about 1700 FPM; at a few times. Flaps and gear were extended. The approach check was skipped in the process of trying to get back on glide slope. A stable approach was achieved at about 1100. Due to the landing check being forgotten; the thrust reverser were not armed and were not used during landing. There was a comfortable amount of runway available. No further events. Due to the short approach situation; both pilots were focused on a stable approach and forgot the approach check. I would like jfk to get us out another mile so we can join the extended centerline before the FAF. It keeps our flow of tasks in check to do it the same way each time.

Title: First Officer reported being vectored to final approach course intercept inside the final approach fix and neglecting to complete all checklists as a result.

Narrative: During our flight to JFK; I was Pilot Flying. Cleared down to 2000 feet for the approach while being vectored. We had a few turns for basically a right downwind for the ILS 4R into JFK. Our final turn to join the approach was a heading that brought us just past the final approach fix instead of a heading that allowed us to join before the final approach fix. Again; day VMC prevailed so we were not concerned about obstacle clearance. Airport was in sight continuously. Once the LOC began to capture; I disconnected the autopilot and began a descent in an attempt to capture the glide slope which was below us now (we were just past the FAF). I attempted to maintain 1500 FPM or less but exceeded slightly; to about 1700 FPM; at a few times. Flaps and gear were extended. The approach check was skipped in the process of trying to get back on glide slope. A stable approach was achieved at about 1100. Due to the landing check being forgotten; the thrust reverser were not armed and were not used during landing. There was a comfortable amount of runway available. No further events. Due to the short approach situation; both pilots were focused on a stable approach and forgot the approach check. I would like JFK to get us out another mile so we can join the extended centerline before the FAF. It keeps our flow of tasks in check to do it the same way each time.
