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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,564 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 519 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-600 taxied from the parking area to runway 09 at Douglas-Charles Airport in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 09, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 137 kt and became airborne after a takeoff distance of 517 m, representing 37 % of the runway. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 28 °C with wind from 110 ° at 4 kt, including a 3 kt cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced overhead Marigot, Saint Andrew, Dominica, rising from 952 ft asl to 39 855 ft asl - an altitude gain of 38 903 ft - over 41 minutes while covering 321 nm.
The first cruise segment began 14 mi north of Loiza, Puerto Rico, and continued for 148 minutes, traversing 1 152 nm.
A subsequent cruise phase started overhead Kendale Lakes, Florida, United States, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nm.
Descent began 3 mi west of MYAF Andros Town Airport, Andros Island, dropping from 39 878 ft asl to 2 994 ft asl - a loss of 36 884 ft - in 16 minutes and spanning 155 nm.
A second descent started 4 mi northwest of Kendall West, Florida, United States, descending from 3 006 ft asl to 1 317 ft asl, a decrease of 1 689 ft, in 2 minutes while covering 7 nm.
The final approach to runway 09 at Miami International Airport was flown from the west on a heading of 87.0° at 4 nm and 1 296 ft agl, under a temperature of 32 °C and wind from 171 ° at 8 kt (8 kt cross-wind, 1 kt head-wind).
Landing on runway 09 was achieved with a threshold speed of 129 kt; touchdown occurred 93 m beyond the touchdown zone at 120 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 161 fpm and perfect runway alignment. The total landing distance was 986 m, representing 28 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good as the aircraft decelerated to a stop on the paved surface.
Taxi-in to the parking area from the runway required 1 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1 648 nm, lasted 215 minutes, and consumed 9 173 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600 established the final approach to runway 09 at KMIA Miami International Airport from the west, tracking a heading of 87.0° at 4 nm and 1,296 ft above ground level. Local weather was 32 °C with wind 8 kt from 171°, providing an 8 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind.
The threshold height was good and the aircraft crossed the threshold at 129 kt, a speed described as well above target.
Touchdown occurred 93 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 120 kt, noted as a little fast, while the vertical rate was minus 161 fpm and runway-centerline alignment was perfect.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 986 m, representing 28 % of the 3,555 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
Reduce the threshold crossing speed toward the target value and aim to touch down within the touchdown zone to eliminate the overshoot; fine-tuning these speeds will bring the already high 98.4 % score even closer to optimal performance.
