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 2,133 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 353 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 2.97 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 19 at KFOK Francis S Gabreski Airport in 63 minutes, covering 6 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 19, the aircraft used 804 m of runway, representing 52 % of the available length, and lifted off at 141 kt; local conditions were 22 °C with a 3 kt wind from 168°, zero cross-wind and a 3 kt head-wind.
The first en-route climb began overhead Quiogue, New York, and the airplane rose from 976 ft asl to 42 970 ft asl, an increase of 41 995 ft achieved in 18 minutes while traversing 115 nm.
A level cruise segment started 1 nm west of Birchwood Lakes, Pennsylvania, lasting 12 minutes and extending 74 nm.
The initial descent commenced over New Albany, Pennsylvania, descending from 42 864 ft asl to 8 971 ft asl, a loss of 33 893 ft in 7 minutes over 39 nm.
A brief cruise followed 3 nm north of 0PA9 Carson Heliport, Perkasie, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
The next climb started 1 nm north of Avis, Pennsylvania, climbing from 8 919 ft asl to 12 799 ft asl, an increase of 3 880 ft in 2 minutes while covering 3 nm.
A subsequent cruise segment began 1 nm northwest of McElhattan, Pennsylvania, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 7 nm.
The second descent began 2 nm west of Mill Hall, Pennsylvania, dropping from 13 079 ft asl to 8 983 ft asl, a decrease of 4 096 ft in 3 minutes over 15 nm.
A further cruise segment started 3 nm northwest of Milesburg, Pennsylvania, lasting 3 minutes and covering 15 nm.
The third descent originated 2 nm southwest of KPSB Mid-State Regional Airport, Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, descending from 8 961 ft asl to 6 971 ft asl, a loss of 1 990 ft in 2 minutes across 8 nm.
A longer cruise followed 2 nm northeast of Northwood, Pennsylvania, lasting 10 minutes and extending 40 nm.
The fourth descent began 2 nm north of PS23 Windy Hill Airport, Curwensville, Pennsylvania, descending from 6 953 ft asl to 4 999 ft asl, a reduction of 1 954 ft in 2 minutes while covering 5 nm.
Another cruise segment started 5 nm north of Schellsburg, Pennsylvania, lasting 2 minutes and covering 4 nm.
The final descent started 5 nm east of PS52 Alberter Farms Airport, Johnstown, Pennsylvania, dropping from 5 434 ft asl to 3 506 ft asl, a loss of 1 928 ft in 3 minutes over 5 nm.
On final approach to runway 33 at KJST John Murtha Johnstown Cambria County Airport, the aircraft approached from the southeast on a heading of 324.0°, entering the approach at 4 nm and 1 224 ft agl.
During the approach the airplane descended from 1 300 ft agl to -18 ft agl in 133 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gate criteria.
Landing on runway 33 was executed with a runway length of 2 133 m; the threshold height at 60 ft agl was slightly above target and the threshold speed was 112 kt. Touchdown occurred 349 m down the runway at 107 kt with a firm rate of minus 350 fpm and very good alignment; local weather was 22 °C with a 1 kt wind from 300°, zero cross-wind and a 1 kt head-wind. Total landing distance was 643 m, representing 30 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was offset 8.5 m from the centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total the flight covered 350 nm, lasted 75 minutes, and consumed 1 006 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737 MAX 8 approached runway 05 at LPMA from the south-west on a heading of 44.0° while 1 nm from the threshold at 207 ft agl, descending from 489 ft agl to 43 ft agl in 43 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates; local conditions were 28 °C with wind 9 kt from 10°, a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 7 kt head-wind.
At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed of 144 kt was also good; the aircraft continued the descent to the flare altitude of 43 ft agl before initiating the flare.
Touchdown occurred 144 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 134 kt that was judged good, a vertical rate of minus 187 fpm that was good, and runway-touchdown alignment described as very good.
The rollout used a total landing distance of 1,538 m, representing 59 % of the 2,624 m runway, and runway-rollout alignment was perfect.
To reduce the overshoot, adjust the flare timing to achieve touchdown within the touchdown zone while preserving the good speed and rate already demonstrated.
