Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
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.
One stabilised approach gate for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: centreline 6.2° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,866 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 208 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna CT206G taxied onto runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport and commenced the take-off roll, covering 772 m which represents 41 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 70 kt while the ambient temperature was 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, with a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.
The aircraft entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, flying a distance of less than 1 nm in 26 seconds.
A left-hand pattern cross-wind leg followed, also less than 1 nm and completed in 16 seconds.
During the downwind turn the aircraft described a 1 nm arc with a heading change of 55.1° toward the far end of the runway.
The downwind leg extended for 2 nm and was flown in 83 seconds.
The base-leg turn covered 2 nm with an angle to the runway of 53.9° measured from the 45° reference line.
The base leg itself was less than 1 nm and lasted 45 seconds.
The final turn to the approach course was less than 1 nm and was completed in 36 seconds.
On final approach to runway 23 the aircraft descended from 492 ft AGL to 26 ft AGL in 57 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gate criteria.
Touchdown occurred on runway 23, whose length is 1,866 m, with a threshold speed of 67 kt. The aircraft landed 208 m from the threshold at 57 kt, with a smooth touchdown rate of minus 139 fpm and perfect runway alignment; weather conditions remained 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, 1 kt cross-wind and 2 kt head-wind.
The rollout distance measured 378 m, representing 20 % of the runway, and the aircraft maintained perfect alignment throughout the rollout.
In total the flight covered 8 nm, taking 6 and used 2 kg of fuel.
