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 five 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, off the runway's 3° glideslope and off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,202 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,202 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 161 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from HE32 Al Mansurah Airbase, the PC-24 VIP aircraft began its journey with a smooth departure roll from runway 31. The takeoff distance of 1,209 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway, was efficiently utilized as the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 142 knots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 32°C and a gentle headwind of 7 knots, contributed to a stable and controlled takeoff.
As the aircraft climbed out of the Al Mansurah Airbase, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 23,476 feet in just 9 minutes, covering a distance of 36 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a brief level cruise phase, lasting 2 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles, before the aircraft initiated another climb phase, this time reaching an altitude of 38,007 feet in 9 minutes. The majority of the flight was spent in a level cruise phase, lasting 212 minutes and covering 1,439 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, reducing its altitude from 38,026 feet to 1,987 feet in 20 minutes. The final approach to runway 24 at EDLE Essen Mülheim Airport was executed from the east, with a heading of 251.0° and a touchdown speed of 108 knots.
The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 160 meters and a runway touchdown alignment that was perfect. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 446 meters, accounting for 37% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 2 minutes. The total flight distance was 1,656 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 260 minutes and a fuel consumption of 1,633 kilograms.
The final approach to runway 24 at EDLE Essen Mülheim Airport from the east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 251.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,584 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 115 knots, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance of 160 meters was satisfactory, and the touchdown speed of 108 knots was also within the desired parameters.
However, the touchdown rate of -280 feet per minute was slightly below the optimal range, indicating a slightly longer deceleration period. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind of 18 knots at 226°, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The crosswind component of 6 knots and the headwind component of 17 knots also played a role in the successful touchdown.
The rollout phase was largely uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining a relatively straight course. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation from the desired path. Despite this, the total landing distance of 446 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway length, was satisfactory. Overall, the landing was scored at 95.8%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
