Slow down earlier
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,219 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,219 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 323 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 16 at Bastia-Poretta Airport (LFKB), with a takeoff distance of 901 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 134 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 24°C and wind blowing at 16 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 14 knots. After departing from Bastia-Poretta Airport, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to an altitude of 30,734 feet above sea level. This climb phase covered a distance of 80 nautical miles and took 18 minutes, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 29,687 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 26 miles south of San Lorenzo al Mare, Italy. This phase lasted for 88 minutes and covered a distance of 136 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 4 miles northeast of Chatillon-en-Diois, France. This descent phase took the aircraft down from an altitude of 30,644 feet to 2,117 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,526 feet, in 21 minutes and covering a distance of 69 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16 at Lyon Bron Airport (LFLY) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 164.0° at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,431 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 16, which had a length of 1,219 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 113 knots. The touchdown distance was 257 meters, and the touchdown speed was 107 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was perfect at -21 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C and wind blowing at 16 knots from a direction of 320°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the tailwind component was 15 knots. The total landing distance was 1,054 meters, which was 87% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 292 nautical miles, and the flight took a total of 139 minutes. The aircraft used 2,394 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at LFLY Lyon Bron Airport, achieving a score of 91.5%. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 164.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,431 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 113 kt, which was considered good. The touchdown distance of 257 meters was also deemed satisfactory. The touchdown speed of 107 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -21 feet per minute was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 16 kt from a direction of 320°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt and a tailwind of 15 kt, which the pilot successfully managed during the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,054 meters was 87% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating a high level of proficiency.
