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 300 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 300 ft gate: centreline 3.0° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 911 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 911 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 175 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna 208B taxied from the parking area to runway 02 at PAVA Chevak Airport in 10 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 02, the aircraft used 768 m of runway, representing 78 % of the available length, and lifted off at 80 kt. Ambient conditions were 4 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 138°, a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
Climb commenced approximately 2 mi north of Chevak, with the airplane ascending from 840 ft asl to 2 293 ft asl, a gain of 1 453 ft achieved in 3 minutes while covering 7 nm.
Level cruise began about 8 mi north of PAVA Chevak Airport and continued for 4 minutes, during which the aircraft traveled 10 nm.
The final approach to runway 28 at PACM Scammon Bay Airport was established, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Descent from 495 ft agl to 36 ft agl was completed in 53 seconds.
Landing on runway 28, which is 911 m long, was executed with a threshold speed of 72 kt. Touchdown occurred 173 m down the runway at 68 kt, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 139 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather reported 4 °C, wind 3 kt from 209°, a 3 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind. The total landing distance measured 533 m, or 58 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 20 nm, required 18 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 56 kg of fuel.
The Cessna 208B completed the final approach to runway 28 at PACM Scammon Bay Airport, descending from 495 ft agl to 36 ft agl in 53 seconds and scoring on the stabilisation gates; local weather was 4 °C with a 3 kt wind from 209°, providing a 3 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 72 kt, indicating the flare was initiated within the expected parameters.
Touchdown occurred 173 m down the runway with a speed of 68 kt, noted as a little fast, a smooth vertical rate of minus 139 fpm, and perfect runway-touchdown alignment.
The rollout continued with perfect alignment, covering a total landing distance of 533 m, which is 58 % of the 911 m runway length.
To refine the already strong performance reflected by the 95.0 % score, a slight reduction in touchdown speed would increase margin while preserving the smooth rate and alignment already achieved.
