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 five 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,787 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 421 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (LEMG), the PC-24 VIP aircraft began its journey with a taxiing phase that lasted 13 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, it initiated its departure roll on runway 12, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 146 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,155 meters accounted for 37% of the runway length, with a local temperature of 24°C and a headwind of 6 knots contributing to the aircraft's performance.
As the aircraft climbed out of Málaga, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 38,009 feet above sea level in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 88 nautical miles. The climb phase was followed by a level cruise, which started 13 miles northeast of Chefchaouene, Morocco, and lasted for 237 minutes, covering a distance of 1,677 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, reducing its altitude from 37,993 feet to 1,856 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 124 nautical miles. A brief level cruise phase followed, lasting only 3 minutes and covering 9 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23 at Spriggs Payne Airport (GLMR) was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 105 knots and a touchdown distance of 421 meters.
The landing performance of the PC-24 VIP was satisfactory, with a touchdown rate of -61 feet per minute and a runway touchdown alignment that was very good. The total landing distance of 861 meters accounted for 48% of the runway length, with a slight misalignment of 9.8 meters from the centerline during the rollout phase. The total flight distance of 1,905 nautical miles was completed in 291 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 2,175 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 23 at GLMR Spriggs Payne Airport was executed from the north east, heading 218.0° at 4 nm and 1,061 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and threshold speed of 121 kt. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 105 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 421 m was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
The touchdown characteristics were excellent, with a touchdown rate of -61 fpm, demonstrating a high degree of precision and control. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 27 °C and a wind of 5 kt at 151°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing. The crosswind component of 4 kt and headwind component of 2 kt were minimal, further facilitating a smooth touchdown.
The rollout phase was satisfactory, with the aircraft coming to a stop at a total distance of 861 m, which represented 48% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.8 m from the centreline, indicating a minor deviation from the desired path. Despite this, the overall performance of the aircraft was impressive, with a final score of 96.7% reflecting the high degree of skill and precision displayed by the pilot.
