Track the centreline
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: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 10.1° 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 284 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport and commenced the departure roll, achieving a take-off distance of 747 m, which represents 40 % of the available runway. Liftoff occurred at 133 kt while the ambient temperature was 16 °C and the wind was 2 kt from 269°, with a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.
Climb began directly overhead the departure airport, with the airplane accelerating from 1,012 ft asl to 1,512 ft asl, a gain of 500 ft attained in less than one minute and covering less than one nautical mile.
Level cruise was established one mile west of Croy, persisting for four minutes and encompassing a distance of 12 nm.
Descent was initiated from 1,069 ft agl and reduced to 35 ft agl within 69 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gate criteria.
During the final approach to runway 23 at EGPE, the aircraft maintained the same wind conditions as at departure-temperature 15 °C, wind 2 kt from 269°, 1 kt cross-wind and 2 kt head-wind-while aligning for touchdown.
Landing was executed on runway 23, whose total length is 1,866 m; the threshold speed was recorded at 109 kt. Touchdown occurred 283 m down the runway at 102 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 140 fpm and perfect runway-centerline alignment.
The rollout phase continued the perfect alignment, and the total landing distance measured 674 m, equivalent to 36 % of the runway length.
In total, the flight covered 17 nm, lasted 7 minutes, and consumed 39 kg of fuel.
The Phenom 300E completed the final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, descending from 1,069 ft AGL to 35 ft AGL in 69 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and achieved a threshold speed of 109 kt, matching the expected parameters for the approach.
Touchdown occurred 283 m down the runway at a speed of 102 kt, noted as a little fast, with a smooth vertical rate of -140 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 674 m, representing 36 % of the 1,866 m runway, and the runway-rollout alignment remained perfect.
To convert the high score of 96.4 % into an even tighter performance, reduce the touchdown speed slightly to bring it closer to the optimal value while preserving the excellent alignment and smooth rate already demonstrated.
