Keep the wings level on final
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,801 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 480 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 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-900, then departed from runway 13 at KGGG East Texas Regional Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,352 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 140 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed out of KGGG East Texas Regional Airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile southeast of the airport. The climb took 27 minutes and covered a distance of 191 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,418 feet above sea level to 34,662 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,244 feet. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles north of Livonia, Louisiana, and lasted for 135 minutes, covering a distance of 1,054 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 6 miles northwest of MYAP Spring Point Airport in the Bahamas. The descent took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 105 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 35,230 feet above sea level to 1,173 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,057 feet. The final approach to runway 10 at MBPV Providenciales International Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 94.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,151 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 10 at MBPV Providenciales International Airport was successful, with the touchdown point being 57 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 124 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was -180 feet per minute, which was also within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots at 80 degrees.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,357 nautical miles, and the total flight time was 180 minutes. The aircraft used 8,825 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at Providenciales International Airport, MBPV, with a score of 99.5%. The final approach to runway 10 was initiated from the west, heading 94.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,151 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 134 knots. The touchdown point was located 57 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -180 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from a direction of 80°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 1 knot and a significant headwind component of 6 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more manageable.
The total landing distance of 918 meters was only 33% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a straight and level attitude throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled manner.
