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: gear still up.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,541 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 506 m past the threshold — beyond 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 08 at Talagi Airport (ULAA) in Archangelsk, Russia. The takeoff distance was 742 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 139 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of -1 °C and a wind speed of 1 knot at 99 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, but there was a headwind of 1 knot. The enroute climb started 1 mile east of ULAA Talagi Airport and continued for 12 minutes, covering a distance of 66 nautical miles. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,064 feet above sea level to 31,190 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,126 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 30 miles southwest of Soyana Airfield (ULBQ) in Soyana, Russia. This phase lasted for 20 minutes and covered a distance of 145 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, which started 2 miles southwest of Nizhnyaya Pesha in the Nenetskiy Avtonomnyy Okrug region of Russia. The descent from 31,080 feet above sea level to 18,465 feet above sea level took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 54 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 80 miles southwest of Nar'yan-Mar in the Nenetskiy Avtonomnyy Okrug region of Russia. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 29 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 50 miles southwest of Nar'yan-Mar. The descent from 17,986 feet above sea level to 1,369 feet above sea level took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 61 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a final level cruise phase, which started 6 miles east of Iskateley in the Nenetskiy Avtonomnyy Okrug region of Russia. This phase lasted for 6 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 24 at Naryan Mar Airport (ULAM), flying from the east at a heading of 262.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,125 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 24 at ULAM Naryan Mar Airport was successful, with a touchdown point 89 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 128 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -110 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, despite the local weather conditions of a temperature of -10 °C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 97 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and there was a tailwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,008 meters, which accounted for 40% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 17.2 meters from the centerline. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 367 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 75 minutes. The aircraft used 2,602 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at ULAM Naryan Mar Airport, with a final approach score of 91.5%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 262.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,125 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth landing on runway 24, which has a length of 2,541 meters.
The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 133 knots. However, the touchdown point was 89 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have slightly overestimated the aircraft's distance to the runway. The touchdown speed of 128 knots was a bit faster than ideal, but the touchdown rate of -110 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were quite cold, with a temperature of -10°C, and a gentle wind of 4 knots from 97°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were favorable for a safe landing.
The total landing distance of 1,008 meters was 40% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 17.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control inputs during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were a few areas for improvement, such as the slightly fast touchdown speed and the misaligned runway rollout. Nevertheless, the pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth touchdown rate and the good threshold height.
