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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 11,076 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,107 ft 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 15 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 17R at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. The takeoff distance was 6,539 feet, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 163 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 57 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots at 160 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile south of KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. The climb was from an altitude of 1,504 feet above sea level to 32,002 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,497 feet, in 22 minutes and covering a distance of 140 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 5 miles east of Haskell Mun Airport in Texas. This phase lasted for 120 minutes and covered a distance of 828 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Twentynine Palms in California. The descent was from an altitude of 31,997 feet above sea level to 1,495 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,502 feet, in 27 minutes and covering a distance of 135 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport was made from the west, with a heading of 86.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,349 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 07R, which had a length of 11,076 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,106 feet, and the touchdown speed was 136 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -234 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots at 114 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 4,047 feet, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The final taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,113 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 181 minutes. The aircraft used 18,469 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX) on runway 07R. The final approach was executed from the west, with a heading of 86.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,349 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 99.7%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 136 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 139 knots. The touchdown distance of 1,106 feet was also within the expected range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -234 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a slightly more stable rate of descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 55°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 114°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft's approach. The runway length of 11,076 feet provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely.
The total landing distance of 4,047 feet was 37% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the skills and expertise of the pilots involved.
