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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 740 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 13L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The Airbus A321 took off with a takeoff distance of 871 meters, which is 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 160 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 9 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 120 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Ullo, a town in Pest megye, Hungary. The climb began at an altitude of 1,922 feet above sea level and increased to 2,993 feet above sea level, a total increase of 1,071 feet in just 2 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles south of Monor, another town in Pest megye, Hungary, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started overhead Pilis, a town in Pest megye, Hungary. The descent began at an altitude of 2,957 feet above sea level and decreased to 2,461 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 496 feet in just 2 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles south of Gomba, another town in Pest megye, Hungary, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 8 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport was made from the south east, heading 313.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,067 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 31R, which has a length of 3,701 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 121 knots.
The touchdown point was 319 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 111 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was smooth at -103 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. At the time of landing, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 73 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,367 meters, which is 37% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 33 nautical miles, and the flight took 18 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 13,244 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, achieving a high score of 96.6%. The final approach to runway 31R was conducted from the south east, with a heading of 313.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,067 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 121 knots. The touchdown point was located 319 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. The touchdown speed of 111 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -103 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 8°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 73°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 1,367 meters was 37% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight path along the runway. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and efficiently, with the aircraft touching down on the runway with a good speed and rate, and rolling out in a straight line. The high score achieved by the aircraft is a testament to the skill and expertise of the pilots involved.
