Hold the approach angle
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 3,792 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the full 3,792 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 852 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report

The landing was on runway 23 at EGHF Lee-On-Solent, with a runway length of 1,156 m. The height at the threshold was 54 ft above ground level, with a speed at the threshold of 80 knots. The touchdown occurred 259 m from the threshold at a speed of 67 knots, with a vertical speed indicator reading of -40 ft/min. The local weather at the time of landing included a temperature of 15°C, wind speed of 19 knots at 222°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 19 knots.
