Be on speed by the gate
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,751 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 354 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-600 taxied from the parking area to runway 25L at OPKC Jinnah International Airport, a movement that lasted 4 minutes and covered 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 25L, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 143 kt and became airborne after traveling 1,608 m, which represented 47 % of the runway length. Ambient conditions were 32 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 250°, providing a 3 kt headwind and zero crosswind.
Climb commenced overhead OPKC, with the airplane rising from 441 ft asl to 40,676 ft asl, an altitude gain of 40,235 ft achieved in 42 minutes while covering 305 nm.
Cruise began 2 mi west of Gadhada, Gujarat, and was maintained for 252 minutes, during which the flight traversed 1,911 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 2 mi north-east of WZ08 Idi/Peudawa Rayeuk, Indonesia, with the aircraft descending from 40,879 ft asl to 1,320 ft asl, a loss of 39,558 ft in 15 minutes and a distance of 100 nm.
The final approach to runway 23 at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport was executed from the north-east on a heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,265 ft agl. During the approach the aircraft further descended from 1,334 ft agl to 44 ft agl in 96 seconds and was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 23 was performed on a runway 3,751 m long; the threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 127 kt. Touchdown occurred 356 m down the runway at a speed of 119 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 225 fpm described as fair. The touchdown point was offset by 5.9 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was 26 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 347°, a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind. Total landing distance was 889 m, representing 24 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
In total the flight covered 2,326 nm, required 314 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 12,510 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600 approached runway 23 at WIMM Kualanamu International Airport from the north-east on a heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,265 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, being more than 20 kt above VREF, and the aircraft descended from 1,334 ft agl to 44 ft agl in 96 seconds, scoring on the stabilisation gates.
Threshold height was good and the flare was completed from the 44 ft altitude, establishing the final descent profile for touchdown.
Touchdown occurred 356 m down the runway at a speed of 119 kt, which was rated good, while the vertical rate of -225 fpm was rated fair. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned, 5.9 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance was 889 m, representing 24 % of the 3,751 m runway.
Runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining on the centreline through the deceleration phase.
To improve the overall score, reduce approach speed to within the VREF envelope before the 1,000 ft gate to achieve a stabilized approach, and refine flare technique to attain a softer vertical rate at touchdown.
