Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 90 kt before crossing the threshold.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 100 kt, 10 kt above the 90 kt target.
Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 90 kt at the threshold.
See Arrival Landing
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 for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: centreline 1.6° off, against a 1° limit and wings 20° of bank, against a 10° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 342 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft performed a takeoff roll on runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 106 kt. The takeoff distance measured 619 m, representing 25 % of the available runway. Local weather at the time was 16 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, giving a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.
After departure the flight entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, covering a distance of 2 nm in 33 seconds.
The aircraft then proceeded on the left-hand pattern crosswind leg, traveling less than 1 nm in 11 seconds.
A left-hand downwind turn followed, with a track length of 3 nm and an angle to the runway of 38.5° measured on a 45° reference.
Continuing the circuit, the downwind leg extended 3 nm and was completed in 77 seconds.
The base-leg turn was executed over a distance of 2 nm, the turn angle to the runway being 64.9° on a 45° reference.
The base leg itself was 1 nm long and was flown for 42 seconds.
A final turn of less than 1 nm was made in 30 seconds to align with the runway heading.
The final approach to runway 23 was flown from the north-east, on a heading of 232.0°, descending to 389 ft AGL at the runway threshold.
Landing was achieved on runway 23, whose length is 2,490 m. The threshold speed was 100 kt, touchdown occurred 340 m down the runway at 84 kt, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 80 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was recorded as perfect. Weather at landing was 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, giving a cross-wind component of 1 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 687 m, equivalent to 28 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment remained perfect.
In total the flight covered 13 nm, lasted 6 minutes, and consumed 1 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde was flown from the north-east on a heading of 232.0° with the aircraft at 0 nm from the threshold and 389 ft above ground level.
At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 100 kt, indicating the aircraft was correctly configured for landing.
Touchdown occurred 340 m down the runway at a speed of 84 kt; the vertical speed was excellent at minus 80 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 687 m, representing 28 % of the 2,490 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
Maintain the current approach and flare technique while continuing to monitor touchdown point and speed to preserve the excellent performance reflected in the 100.0 % score.
