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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,702 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 300 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The OV-10 Bronco taxied from the parking area to runway 11, a movement that took 1 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 11 at 33U Dutch John, using 912 m of runway (50 % of the available length) and lifted off at 90 kt. Ambient conditions were 17 °C with a wind from 172° at 5 kt, including a 3 kt crosswind and a 3 kt headwind.
After departure, the aircraft entered a level cruise overhead 33U Dutch John, maintaining altitude for 11 minutes and covering 37 nm.
A descent began 19 miles north east of UT79 3-I Rocker Ranch Airport, dropping from 6,199 ft asl to 5,416 ft asl-a loss of 783 ft-over 2 minutes while traveling 5 nm.
The flight resumed level cruise 17 miles north of Dinosaur, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
Climbing commenced 13 miles north east of UT79 3-I Rocker Ranch Airport, gaining 579 ft from 5,280 ft asl to
The North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco, scoring 86.2%, entered the final approach to runway 13 at U34 Green River Mun from the north-west on a heading of 140.0° at 2 nm and 593 ft AGL. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as stabilised, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
The threshold height was 76 ft AGL, well above target, and the threshold speed was 82 kt, slightly below target.
Touchdown occurred 298 m down the runway at a speed of 79 kt, both judged good, but the vertical rate was hard at -476 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 6.5 m from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 769 m, representing 45 % of the 1,702 m runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good.
Reduce the hard vertical rate by refining flare timing to achieve a smoother touchdown. Improve centreline tracking to keep the touchdown point within tighter tolerance.
