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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,236 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 300 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Embraer E190 aircraft departed Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM) from runway 09 after a 13-minute taxiing period that covered 3 nautical miles. The departure roll began at a temperature of 19 °C with a wind speed of 10 kt from 100 °, resulting in a crosswind of 2 kt and a headwind of 10 kt. The takeoff distance was 1,025 meters or 31% of the runway length, with a liftoff speed of 151 kt.
The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile north east of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, reaching a height increase of 34,396 feet in 20 minutes while covering 126 nautical miles. This climb was from an initial altitude of 1,005 feet above sea level to 35,401 feet.
The aircraft then transitioned to a level cruise, starting 2 miles northwest of Vielsalm, Belgium, and lasted for 27 minutes while covering 136 nautical miles. The descent phase started 1 mile northwest of La Forge, France, and involved decreasing from a height of 35,792 feet to 5,060 feet in 13 minutes, covering 73 nautical miles.
Following the initial descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, this time over Endingen, Switzerland, and lasted for 11 minutes while covering 15 nautical miles. The final descent was a gentle one, with the aircraft beginning its approach to runway 34 at LSZH Zürich Airport from the south east.
Upon landing, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 121 kt, but the touchdown rate was good at -164 feet per minute. The aircraft touched down 71 meters beyond the threshold zone, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.9 meters. The total landing distance covered 1,405 meters, which was 43% of the runway length.
The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.1 meters. Taxiing to the parking from the runway took a mere 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. In total, the flight distance was 360 nautical miles, which was covered in 76 minutes, using a fuel of 2,182 kg.
The Embraer E190 successfully landed on runway 34 at Zürich Airport (LSZH) with a score of 96.2%. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 335.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles (nm) and an altitude of 1,630 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a slightly above-target threshold speed of 125 knots. However, the touchdown speed at 121 knots was slightly faster than ideal. A good rate of descent was maintained during touchdown at -164 feet per minute (fpm), which demonstrates effective control and precision.
Despite a good threshold height, the touchdown point was 71 meters past the touchdown zone, which indicates a slight over-shooting. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.9 meters. These minor discrepancies highlight areas for improvement during future landings.
Local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 10°C, which suggests a stable and manageable atmosphere. The total landing distance was 1,405 meters, which accounts for approximately 43% of the runway's 3,236-meter length. A rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.1 meters from the centerline. Despite these minor deviations, the Embraer E190's landing was deemed successful, and it landed safely on the runway.
