Track the centreline 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 1,130 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,130 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 196 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Beechcraft Baron G58 started with a 12-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at YPJT Perth Jandakot Airport. The departure roll on runway 24R covered 8 nm and required a takeoff distance of 630 m (56% of the runway length). Liftoff speed was 102 kn in local weather conditions of 16°C temperature with a 5 kn wind coming from 226°, resulting in a 1 kn crosswind and a 5 kn headwind.
The enroute climb began overhead Cockburn Central in Western Australia, ascending from 887 ft asl to 2,990 ft asl, covering 14 nm in 5 minutes. The climb represented an increase of 2,103 ft in altitude.
The aircraft then leveled off in cruise 3 miles southwest of Trigg, covering 16 nm in 12 minutes.
The landing was on runway 24R at YPJT Perth Jandakot Airport, with a runway length of 1,130 m. The height at threshold was 16 ft agl, and the speed at threshold was 78 kn. Touchdown occurred 195 m from the threshold at a speed of 70 kn, with a vertical speed indicator reading of -82 ft/m. The local weather at landing was 15°C temperature with a 5 kn wind from 226°, resulting in a 1 kn crosswind and a 5 kn headwind. The total landing distance was 760 m (67% of the runway).
After landing, a 1-minute taxi took the aircraft back to the parking area, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered a total distance of 57 nm, lasting 136 minutes and consuming 109 kg of fuel.
