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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,520 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,520 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 55 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Indianapolis International Airport, the Beechcraft Duke began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft lined up on runway 05R, the crew prepared for departure, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 12 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt. With a crosswind of 4 kt, the aircraft took off, covering a distance of 771 meters, which was 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 99 kt, and the aircraft quickly gained altitude.
As the Beechcraft Duke climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Indianapolis International Airport, rising from 1,865 feet above sea level to 13,011 feet in just 9 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. The crew then leveled off, cruising for 24 minutes and covering 98 nautical miles, before beginning its descent to a lower altitude. The descent started 1 mile northwest of Lawrenceville, Ohio, and took 7 minutes to complete, covering 25 nautical miles and decreasing the altitude from 13,008 feet to 2,699 feet. The aircraft then leveled off again, cruising for a short period before beginning its final descent.
The Beechcraft Duke's final approach to runway 09R at The Ohio State University Airport - Don Scott Field was from the west, with a heading of 88.0° and an altitude of 1,051 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway, covering a distance of 54 meters and landing at a speed of 92 kt. The touchdown rate was fair at -274 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a short distance. The total flight distance was 158 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 94 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which took a total of 58 minutes.
The final approach to runway 09R at KOSU The Ohio State University Airport - Don Scott Field was executed from the west, heading 88.0° at 4 nm and 1,051 ft above ground level. The approach quality was good, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 92 kt, which met the required standards. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 92 kt, which was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown distance of 54 m was within the desired parameters.
However, the touchdown rate of -274 fpm was only fair, indicating a slightly higher than ideal rate of descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 8 °C and a wind of 4 kt at 280°, contributed to a minimal crosswind component of 1 kt and a tailwind of 4 kt.
The total landing distance of 670 m was 44% of the runway length, which was within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.2 m from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation in the aircraft's path during the rollout phase. Despite these minor deviations, the overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 95.3%.
