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: gear still up.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,631 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 246 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 area to the runway, which took approximately 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an SR22, then departed from runway 01 at Republic Airport, KFRG. The takeoff distance was 194 meters, which accounted for 13% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 76 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 356 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of East Farmingdale, New York, and ascended from an altitude of 1,144 feet above sea level to 2,420 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,275 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase started overhead West Hills, New York, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 1 mile northwest of Eatons Neck, New York, and ascended from 2,409 feet above sea level to 3,061 feet above sea level, an increase of 652 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase resumed 4 miles southeast of Darien, Connecticut, and lasted for 28 minutes, covering a distance of 68 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile southeast of 1A1 Green Acres Airport, Livingston, New York, and descended from 3,398 feet above sea level to 1,593 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,805 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 03 at 1B1 Columbia County was made from the south, heading 10.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,385 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 03, which had a length of 1,631 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 77 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 243 meters, and the touchdown speed was 67 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -92 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as at the time of departure, with a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 356 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The total landing distance was 525 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The total flight distance was 95 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 44 minutes. The aircraft used 34 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at 1B1 Columbia County, achieving a high score of 93.2%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 10.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,385 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed approach.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold speed, reaching 77 knots, and a satisfactory touchdown distance of 243 meters. The touchdown speed of 67 knots was also within acceptable limits. Notably, the touchdown rate was excellent, with a rate of -92 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft landing 3.3 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may have been influenced by the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 7°C and a wind of 10 knots at 356°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 10 knots, which may have contributed to the slight deviation.
The total landing distance of 525 meters was 32% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and stability throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
