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: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,837 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 319 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A flight in a PC-12 aircraft took off from Strasbourg Airport, with the departure roll commencing on runway 23. The takeoff distance was 813 meters, covering 34% of the runway, and the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 104 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff featured a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, with a wind of 3 knots flowing at 250 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots.
Following takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started above Duppigheim, with an initial ascent from 925 feet above sea level to 1,481 feet above sea level over a distance of 1 nautical mile in one minute. However, the more significant climb took place from 1,481 feet to 19,584 feet above sea level, over a distance of 48 nautical miles in 18 minutes. This impressive ascent culminated in the enroute level cruise, which began above Blaesheim but lasted for only a short time, covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The flight continued with several instances of enroute level cruises and descents, with notable ascents from Blaesheim to 19,584 feet above sea level, from Magstatt-le-Bas to 21,786 feet above sea level, and a steep descent from Hesingue to 2,204 feet above sea level. These maneuvers were carried out over various parts of France, with the flight path traversing several small towns and cities.
The final approach to the runway 15 at LFH2 Bale Mulhouse was from the north-west direction, with the aircraft heading 155 degrees and flying at an altitude of 1,603 feet above ground level at a distance of 4 nautical miles. The landing itself occurred on runway 15, an 3,837-meter long strip, with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 88 knots. The aircraft's touchdown distance was 319 meters, which was good, and the touchdown rate of -115 feet per minute was smooth. The runway touchdown position was 5.7 meters off-centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was excellent.
The total flight distance covered was 96 nautical miles, and it used 0 kilograms of fuel throughout the duration of 48 minutes. The taxiing time from the runway to the parking area took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile, while the taxiing time from the parking to the runway took 11 minutes and covered 8 nautical miles.
A PC-12 aircraft has safely landed at LFH2 Bale Mulhouse, achieving a high score of 97.0%. The flight began its final approach from the north-west, heading towards runway 15 at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,603 feet above ground level. With a heading of 155.0°, the aircraft successfully descended onto the designated runway.
The landing took place on a 3,837-meter runway, with a good threshold height, ensuring a smooth touchdown. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than the target speed, reaching 88 knots. The aircraft maintained a good touchdown distance of 319 meters, followed by a smooth touchdown speed of 79 knots. The negative rate of descent was 115 feet per minute, confirming a smooth touchdown.
Although the aircraft landed within the designated runway, it was slightly misaligned by 5.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C, which contributed to the smooth landing. The total landing distance covered was 532 meters, accounting for only 14% of the runway length.
Upon landing, the runway rollout alignment was extremely good, demonstrating the pilot's control and finesse in maneuvering the aircraft during the final stages of the flight. The successful landing of the PC-12 at LFH2 Bale Mulhouse is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience.
