Be on speed by the gate
Next time
Adjust power to bring the approach speed onto 106 kt and hold it through the gates.
What linked up: The approach speed deviated from the target through the stabilisation gates. This kind of deviation usually carries through to an unstable threshold crossing.
Watch for: Watch the airspeed indicator against 106 kt.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 56 kt FAST on the reference speed of 106 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 20 kt FAST on the reference speed of 106 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,820 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,820 m of the 2,943 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 888 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Stuttgart Airport (EDDS), the Skyward C680 D-CAWS began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. With the local weather conditions indicating a temperature of 33 °C and a light wind of 3 kt at 349 °, the aircraft took off from runway 07, utilizing 583 meters, or 19% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 128 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from Stuttgart, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 2,169 feet above sea level to 44,934 feet, an increase of 42,765 feet, in 21 minutes and covering 124 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a 45-minute enroute level cruise, during which the aircraft maintained a steady altitude, covering a distance of 61 nautical miles. The descent phase commenced 2 miles southwest of Hardegsen, with the aircraft descending from 44,954 feet to 1,312 feet, a decrease of 43,642 feet, in 27 minutes and covering 136 nautical miles.
Upon approaching Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport (EDDH), the aircraft began its final approach to runway 05, aligning itself with the runway from the southwest. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down 468 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 103 kt, and a touchdown rate of -113 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 1,735 meters, or 59% of the runway, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 328 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 784 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which lasted a total of 71 minutes.
The final approach to runway 05 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport from the south west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 49.0° at 4 nm and 1,257 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 123 kt. The aircraft touched down smoothly at a speed of 103 kt, with a touchdown rate of -113 fpm, indicating a well-controlled descent.
The touchdown point was 468 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal but still within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was well-centered on the runway. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 24 °C and a light wind of 2 kt at 330°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 kt.
The total landing distance was 1,735 m, which is 59% of the runway length. This is a respectable performance, considering the runway length of 2,949 m. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, resulting in a score of 94.4%.
