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: off the runway's 3° glideslope.

Side view — the last 1,521 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,521 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
Departure from Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport, KSGH, began with a smooth roll down runway 24, utilizing 763 meters or 28% of the available runway length. The aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 76 knots, clearing the ground with ease. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a moderate headwind of 13 knots, contributed to a stable and controlled takeoff.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began to ascend from 2,059 feet above sea level to 2,825 feet, a vertical gain of 766 feet in just one minute. This aggressive climb allowed the aircraft to quickly reach its enroute cruise altitude, which was established approximately one mile east of Yellow Springs, Ohio. The cruise phase lasted for two minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of four nautical miles. Following the cruise, the aircraft began its descent, reducing altitude from 2,842 feet to 1,860 feet in two minutes, while covering a similar distance of four nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at Greene County/Lewis A. Jackson Regional Airport, I19, was initiated from a northeasterly heading, with the aircraft descending from 934 feet above ground level to touch down on the runway. The touchdown speed of 66 knots was well within the target range, and the touchdown distance of 281 meters was also satisfactory. The aircraft's touchdown rate was smooth, at -128 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Following touchdown, the aircraft rolled out on the runway, maintaining a very good alignment. The total landing distance of 665 meters, or 49% of the available runway length, was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. The total flight distance of 12 nautical miles was completed in six minutes, with a fuel consumption of six kilograms.
The final approach to runway 25 at I19 Greene County/Lewis A. Jackson Regional Airport from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 245.0° at 2 nm and 934 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a well-established visual reference to the runway environment. The threshold speed was notably above the target, reaching 83 kt, which was likely due to the favorable headwind component of 16 kt.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 281 m, and the touchdown speed of 66 kt was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -128 fpm, indicating a well-controlled and stable approach. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 29 °C and a wind of 17 kt at 220°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 665 m was 49% of the runway length, indicating a good balance between touchdown distance and runway utilization. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, resulting in a score of 98.6%.
