Hold the approach angle
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 rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 24L at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, a movement that lasted 10 minutes and covered 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24L, the Boeing 737-800 accelerated to a liftoff speed of 152 kt, using 4,029 ft of runway (46 % of the available length). Ambient conditions were 76 °F with a wind of 8 kt from 280°, including a 5 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind.
Climb commenced overhead the departure airport, climbing from 1,204 ft asl to 33,995 ft asl-a gain of 32,791 ft-over 24 minutes while covering 145 nm.
Cruise began approximately 60 miles east of Begur, lasting 78 minutes and encompassing 633 nm of level flight.
Descent was initiated 5 miles northwest of Turje, descending from 33,427 ft asl to 2,278 ft asl, a loss of 31,150 ft in 20 minutes and traversing 122 nm.
The final approach to runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport was flown from the southeast, on a heading of 312.0° at 4 nm and 1,791 ft agl.
Landing on runway 31R was achieved with a threshold speed of 139 kt; touchdown occurred 1,378 ft beyond the touchdown zone at 124 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 221 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather reported 71 °F, wind 9 kt from 280°, a 5 kt crosswind and a 7 kt headwind. The aircraft required a total landing distance of 4,733 ft (39 % of the runway).
Runway rollout proceeded with perfect alignment, completing the landing roll within the calculated distance.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking stand in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 978 nm, lasted 170 minutes, and consumed 16,497 lb of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 entered the final approach to runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport from the south-east on a heading of 312.0° at 4 nm and 1,791 ft agl; at the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, being off the glideslope and off the centreline, with ambient conditions of 71 °F temperature, wind 9 kt from 280°, a 5 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind component.
At threshold the aircraft displayed a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 139 kt; the flare progressed to a touchdown point 1,378 ft beyond the touchdown zone, with a good touchdown speed of 124 kt and a fair touchdown rate of minus 221 fpm, while runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft aligned precisely on the centreline, the indicated speed and descent rate matching the values recorded at flare, confirming the good touchdown speed of 124 kt and the fair descent rate of minus 221 fpm.
Rollout continued along runway 31R, which is 12,278 ft long; the total landing distance used was 4,733 ft, representing 39 % of the runway, and runway rollout alignment remained perfect.
To convert the high overall score of 96.6 % into an even stronger performance, focus on achieving a fully stabilized approach by the 1,000 ft gate to eliminate glideslope and centreline deviations, and refine flare technique to reduce the descent rate toward a smoother touchdown.
