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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up and sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,090 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,090 ft of the 9,784 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,799 ft past the threshold — beyond 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 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 22 at London Stansted Airport (EGSS). The takeoff distance was 3,763 feet, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 42°F and winds of 8 knots at 49°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of Little Hallingbury in Essex, England. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,283 feet above sea level to 3,982 feet, an increase of 2,699 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Much Hadham in Hertfordshire, England, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 4,009 feet to 34,262 feet, an increase of 30,253 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles. The climb started 1 mile east of Great Hormead in Hertfordshire, England.
The enroute level cruise continued for a significant period, starting 28 miles east of Hemsby in Norfolk, England, and lasting for 143 minutes, covering a distance of 1,004 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 8 miles south east of Svartbyn in Norrbotten County, Sweden. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 34,216 feet to 1,905 feet, a decrease of 32,311 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 75 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at Rovaniemi Airport (EFRO) was made from the north east, heading 217.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 21, which had a length of 9,784 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 145 knots. The touchdown point was 456 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -174 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°F and winds of 3 knots at 250°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 4,847 feet, which accounted for 50% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,200 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 193 minutes. The aircraft used 17,990 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at EFRO Rovaniemi Airport, achieving a high score of 97.2%. The final approach to runway 21 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 217.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,266 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 145 knots. The touchdown point was located 456 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 136 knots was also a bit faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -174 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 250°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 4,847 feet was 50% of the available runway length of 9,784 feet. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations from the target parameters.
