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.

Side view — the last 1,216 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,216 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 132 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ100, then departed from runway 13 at LaGuardia Airport (KLGA) in New York, United States. The takeoff distance was 902 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 133 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and winds of 9 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb started overhead East Elmhurst, New York, and the aircraft ascended from 1,059 feet above sea level to 31,706 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,648 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 1 mile north of Cosklos Elkview Airport (PA53) in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, and lasted for 18 minutes, covering a distance of 116 nautical miles. The enroute descent started overhead Groveland Station, New York, and the aircraft descended from 31,785 feet above sea level to 893 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,892 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 89 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26 at Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport (CYTZ) was made from the east, heading 254.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 638 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 26 was successful, with the touchdown distance being good at 130 meters. The touchdown speed was 100 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was also good at -195 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centreline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and winds of 6 knots at 160 degrees. The crosswind was 6 knots, while the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 558 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 305 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,362 kilograms of fuel.
The RJ100 aircraft successfully landed at CYTZ Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The final approach to runway 26 was conducted from the east, with the aircraft heading 254.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 638 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 100 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 130 meters was also considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -195 feet per minute (fpm) was within the desired parameters, further emphasizing the pilot's skill in executing a safe landing.
However, there were a few minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The threshold speed was slightly below the target of 103 kt, which may indicate a slightly slower approach than desired. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.7 meters from the centerline, although this deviation was not significant enough to impact the overall safety of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 6 kt from a direction of 160°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 kt, but no headwind. The total landing distance of 558 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase and ensured a smooth transition from the landing to the taxiing phase. Overall, the landing was considered safe and successful, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of skill and expertise in executing a precise and controlled landing.
