Hold the glidepath
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: glideslope 5.4° against the runway's 3°, centreline 5.9° off, against a 1° limit, wings 29° of bank, against a 10° limit and speed 39 kt FAST on the reference speed of 110 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,042 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,042 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 191 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Miami Executive Airport (KTMB), the Phenom 300E taxied from the parking area to runway 31 in under 4 minutes, covering a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile. With a temperature of 32°C and a light wind of 1 kt from 180°, the aircraft began its departure roll. The takeoff distance of 810 meters was 66% of the runway length, and liftoff occurred at a speed of 124 kt. The aircraft then climbed away from the airport, eventually reaching an enroute climb phase.
As the aircraft climbed from 945 ft above sea level to 41,009 ft, it covered a distance of 104 nautical miles in 16 minutes, increasing its altitude by 40,064 ft. The enroute level cruise phase began 49 miles south of Ocean Cay Heliport (MYBO), where the aircraft maintained a steady altitude for 25 minutes, covering 817 nautical miles. The descent phase started 17 miles north of Loiza, Puerto Rico, where the aircraft descended from 41,010 ft to 541 ft in 25 minutes, covering 176 nautical miles. The final approach to Grand Case-Espérance Airport (TFFG) was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 289.0° at 1 nautical mile and 507 ft above ground level.
The Phenom 300E landed on runway 30 at TFFG, with a total landing distance of 880 meters, which was 89% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 129 kt, and the touchdown rate was firm at -389 fpm. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centerline. The aircraft used 755 kg of fuel for the entire flight, which covered a total distance of 1,099 nautical miles, taking approximately 70 minutes.
The final approach to runway 30 at TFFG Grand Case-Espérance Airport was initiated from the east, heading 289.0° at 1 nm and 507 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the recommended value at 135 kt, indicating a potential for a longer landing distance.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 193 m, but the touchdown speed of 129 kt was a little fast, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -389 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 m from the centreline, which could have been a result of the crosswind component of 3 kt and the tailwind of 12 kt. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 31 °C and a wind speed of 13 kt at 93°, may have also played a role in the slight misalignment.
The total landing distance of 880 m was 89% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.0 m from the centreline, which may have been a result of the aircraft's momentum and the slight misalignment at touchdown. Overall, the landing performance scored 81.1%, indicating a good but not exceptional landing.
