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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,978 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,978 m of the 3,251 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 489 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 33 at EDDH Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,202 meters, which is 37% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 17°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 290°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of Norderstedt, Germany. The climb took 20 minutes and covered 121 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,051 feet above sea level to 35,451 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,401 feet.
After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 3 miles southeast of Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany. This cruise lasted 9 minutes and covered 73 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Kroppen, Germany. The descent took 10 minutes and covered 70 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 35,536 feet above sea level to 10,162 feet above sea level, a decrease of 25,374 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Zlosyn, Czech Republic. This cruise lasted 2 minutes and covered 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, starting overhead Roztoky, Czech Republic. The descent took 5 minutes and covered 17 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 10,183 feet above sea level to 4,231 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,952 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Kunice, Czech Republic. This cruise lasted 5 minutes and covered 14 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 30 at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague was from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 308.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,277 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 30 was successful, with the touchdown point being 76 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 140 knots, which was slightly fast, and the touchdown rate was firm at -327 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 50°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,900 meters, which is 58% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 309 nautical miles, taking 61 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,113 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague, achieving a score of 97.7%. The final approach to runway 30 was conducted from the south east, heading 308.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the touchdown point located 76 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating a slightly firm touchdown. The touchdown rate of -327 feet per minute (fpm) was also firm, suggesting a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.3 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. However, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 50°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. These conditions likely contributed to the successful landing, as they did not pose a significant challenge to the aircraft's stability or control.
The total landing distance of 1,900 meters was 58% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases.
