Hold the approach speed
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 2,745 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 583 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Cessna CJ4 Citation started with a 31-minute taxi from the parking area to runway 27 at VIJP Jaipur International Airport, covering 5 nm. The average speed during taxiing was 22 kn.
Upon departure, the aircraft had a takeoff distance of 667 m, which was 20% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 134 kn, with a crosswind of 4 kn and a headwind of 5 kn. The departure climb to 1,000 ft agl took place smoothly.
The enroute climb started overhead VIJP Jaipur International Airport, climbing from 2,300 ft asl to 8,322 ft asl in just 3 minutes, covering 14 nm. The level cruise south east of Jobner lasted 23 minutes, covering 126 nm. The descent near VIJO Jodhpur Airport involved a quick drop from 8,315 ft asl to 2,909 ft asl in just 4 minutes, covering 19 nm.
The final approach to runway 05 at VIJO Jodhpur Airport included a steady descent in altitude from 944 ft agl to 54 ft agl. The landing on runway 05 was successful, with the touchdown speed at 84 kn and a smooth touchdown rate of -150 ft/m. The total landing distance was 1,207 m, which was 44% of the runway length.
After landing, the aircraft exited the runway at an average speed of 30 kn, and taxiing to the parking area took 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 178 nm, taking 47 minutes, and using 611 kg of fuel.
You should be incredibly proud of your aircraft landing score of 97.9%! Your approach phase demonstrated excellent skills with good glideslope alignment and only a slightly low threshold speed of 102 knots, which shows great precision and control.
Moving on to the landing phase, your performance was solid with good threshold height and a seamless landing flare. This indicates that you were able to make a smooth transition from descent to touchdown, showcasing your ability to maintain stability and control throughout the landing process.
During the touchdown phase, you continued to excel with a smooth touchdown rate of -150 ft/m and a touchdown speed of 84 knots, both of which are within desired parameters for a safe and comfortable landing. Although the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated zone, your runway touchdown alignment was very good, underscoring your skill in maintaining proper positioning on approach.
Overall, your attention to detail, precise control, and smooth execution throughout each phase of the landing contributed to an outstanding performance. Keep up the great work and continue to hone your skills to further improve your scores in future flights. Congratulations on a job well done!
