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.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and 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 3,075 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 494 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 12 at Bilbao Airport (LEBB) in Spain. The takeoff distance was 1,497 meters, which was 70% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. The crosswind was negligible, and there was a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 33,580 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,449 feet from the initial altitude of 1,131 feet. This climb took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 79 nautical miles.
The enroute climb started over Zamudio in the Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoa region of Spain. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile northwest of Linxe in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. This cruise phase lasted for 19 minutes and covered a distance of 375 nautical miles.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent from a cruise altitude of 34,003 feet above sea level to 9,997 feet. This descent took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 83 nautical miles. The descent started 1 mile south of Oresmaux in the Hauts-de-France region of France.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began 1 mile south of Brakel in the Flanders region of Belgium. This cruise phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 1 mile southwest of Herzele in the Flanders region of Belgium. This descent took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 36 nautical miles.
The final descent ended with a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile north of Begijnendijk in the Flanders region of Belgium. This cruise phase lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 25R at Brussels Airport (EBBR) in Belgium.
The final approach was made from the northeast, heading 245.0° at an altitude of 1,245 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 25R, which had a length of 3,075 meters. The touchdown point was 74 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was fair at -233 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.8 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°, with a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,419 meters, which was 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 598 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 77 minutes. The aircraft used 4,790 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Brussels Airport (EBBR) on runway 25R, achieving a score of 97.4%. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 245.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,245 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a threshold speed of 138 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown point was located 74 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 126 knots was deemed good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and managed the descent effectively.
The touchdown rate of -233 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating that the aircraft touched down with a moderate rate of descent. This could be attributed to the pilot's decision to flare the aircraft, reducing the rate of descent and ensuring a smoother touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's judgment of the wind conditions or the aircraft's performance during the approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°.
The crosswind component was negligible, with a value of 0 knots, and the headwind component was 1 knot, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,419 meters was 46% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and aligned the aircraft with the centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot demonstrating good control and judgment throughout the approach and landing phases.
