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: no landing flap set.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,285 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 368 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 16 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna C172, then departed from runway 23 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport. The takeoff distance was 233 meters, which is 8% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 70 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Hamburg, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 6,566 feet above sea level in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles. The climb started overhead EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport and continued to Grossensee, where the aircraft leveled off for 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The next climb phase began overhead Trittau, where the aircraft climbed from 7,173 feet to 11,832 feet in 12 minutes, covering 26 nautical miles.
The aircraft then leveled off for 27 minutes, covering 66 nautical miles, 1 mile north east of Gadebusch. The next descent phase started overhead Lindenberg, where the aircraft descended from 11,951 feet to 4,332 feet in 16 minutes, covering 43 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off for 5 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles, 1 mile south west of Altwarp. The next descent phase began 1 mile north of Czarnocin, where the aircraft descended from 3,994 feet to 2,529 feet in 3 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft then leveled off for 11 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles, 1 mile east of Wolin. The next level cruise phase began 4 miles west of Lubin, where the aircraft leveled off for 1 minute, covering 2 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 28 at EDAH Heringsdorf Airport was made from the east, heading 284.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,409 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 28 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 354 meters and a touchdown speed of 51 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect at 22 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather at the time of landing was 12 degrees Celsius.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 190 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 100 minutes. The aircraft used 37 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDAH Heringsdorf Airport, achieving a high score of 93.1%. The final approach to runway 28 was conducted from the east, with the aircraft heading 284.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,409 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot executed a precise landing, taking into account the runway's length of 2,285 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 65 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's momentum or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother landing.
The touchdown distance of 354 meters was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach. The touchdown speed of 51 knots was also good, indicating that the pilot had successfully slowed the aircraft down to a safe speed before touching down on the runway. The touchdown rate of 22 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, suggesting that the pilot had achieved a smooth and controlled landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. This is a critical aspect of landing, as it ensures that the aircraft is properly positioned on the runway and can be safely stopped.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, which may have affected the aircraft's performance and the pilot's decision-making. However, the pilot's skills and experience were sufficient to overcome any challenges posed by the weather conditions, resulting in a successful landing. Overall, the pilot's performance was impressive, and the landing was executed with precision and control.
