Settle the descent rate
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 500 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 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,697 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 6.4° against the runway's 3°, centreline 4.0° off, against a 1° limit, wings 25° of bank, against a 10° limit and speed 64 kt FAST on the reference speed of 81 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 535 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 535 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 212 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at OG13 Fly By Night Airport took approximately 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 17, utilizing 63% of the available runway length to achieve a takeoff distance of 329 meters. Liftoff speed was reached at 73 knots, with a local temperature of 10°C and a wind of 2 knots at 241°. The crosswind component was minimal, with a headwind of 1 knot.
The enroute climb phase commenced overhead OG13 Fly By Night Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,741 feet above sea level to 3,143 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This was followed by a brief level cruise phase 1 mile northwest of Ruch, lasting 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then resumed its climb, ascending from 3,143 feet to 7,908 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. Subsequently, the enroute descent phase began 1 mile northwest of Central Point, with the aircraft descending from 7,908 feet to 2,186 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08 at 0OR8 Sutton on Rogue Airport was initiated from the west, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 84.0° at 1 nautical mile and 896 feet above ground level. The landing was executed on a runway length of 535 meters, with a threshold height of good quality. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 82 knots, while the touchdown distance was 210 meters. The touchdown rate was heavy at -720 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 437 meters, accounting for 82% of the available runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the total flight distance was 23 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 14 minutes and a fuel consumption of 7 kilograms.
The final approach to runway 08 at 0OR8 Sutton on Rogue Airport from the west was initiated at 1 nm and 896 ft above ground level, heading 84.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 82 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 210 m, but the touchdown speed of 76 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -720 fpm, which may have contributed to the slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, being 4.5 m off centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10 °C and a gentle tailwind of 2 kt, did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 437 m was 82% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance scored 84.9%, reflecting a satisfactory but not exceptional execution of the landing.
