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 six checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the centreline.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,234 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,234 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 122 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 19 at N14 Flying W, with the takeoff distance being 342 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 103 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead N14 Flying W Lumberton, rising from 752 feet above sea level to 3,720 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,968 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius.
The enroute descent began 2 miles south of Columbus, with the aircraft descending from 3,730 feet above sea level to 2,220 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,510 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile east of Columbus and lasting 6 minutes, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles.
The enroute descent continued overhead Franklin Park, with the aircraft descending from 1,816 feet above sea level to 1,110 feet above sea level, a decrease of 706 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile north of Somerset and lasting 9 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nautical miles.
The enroute climb resumed 2 miles northeast of Wanaque, with the aircraft climbing from 1,059 feet above sea level to 1,666 feet above sea level, an increase of 607 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles southeast of Ringwood and lasting 5 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22 at KCDW Essex County Airport took place from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 208.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,793 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 22 was successful, with the touchdown distance being good at 119 meters. The touchdown speed was 77 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -287 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius. The total landing distance was 331 meters, accounting for 27% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 89 nautical miles, taking 33 minutes and using 80 kilograms of fuel.
The aircraft, identified as EVOT, successfully landed at KCDW Essex County Airport, achieving a high score of 96.8%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 208.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,793 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course for a landing on runway 22, which has a length of 1,234 meters.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good control, with a touchdown distance of 119 meters. The touchdown speed was 77 knots, which was slightly below the threshold speed of 81 knots. However, the touchdown rate of -287 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.4 meters, which may require some adjustments in the approach or landing technique to achieve a more precise touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 23°C.
The total landing distance of 331 meters was relatively short, accounting for only 27% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases. However, the slightly misaligned touchdown position and fair touchdown rate suggest areas for improvement in the pilot's technique.
