See Arrival Approach
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: seven 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. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 4.3° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 351 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Groningen Airport Eelde, runway 23, the Phenom 300E took to the skies with a smooth departure roll. The aircraft accelerated down the 2,493-meter runway, reaching liftoff speed of 114 kt in a relatively short distance of 616 meters, which accounted for 25% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb phase, reaching an altitude of 1,959 ft asl in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nm. The climb rate was impressive, with an increase of 958 ft in a short period. Following the climb, the aircraft leveled off at cruise altitude, maintaining a steady heading for 2 minutes as it covered a distance of 5 nm. The descent phase began over Noordlaren, with the aircraft losing 961 ft in altitude over a 2-minute period, covering a distance of 3 nm. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 222.0° at 2 nm and 576 ft agl.
The Phenom 300E touched down on runway 23 with a smooth touchdown rate of -116 fpm, at a speed of 95 kt. The touchdown distance was good, at 356 meters, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The aircraft's performance was impressive, with a total flight distance of 14 nm and a fuel consumption of 41 kg. The flight duration was 6 minutes, indicating a high level of efficiency and performance from the Phenom 300E.
The final approach to runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde commenced from the north east, with the aircraft established on a heading of 222.0° at 2 nautical miles and 576 feet above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a slight deviation from the target threshold speed of 104 kt, reaching 105 kt. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, with a smooth touchdown rate of -116 feet per minute.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance of 356 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 95 kt was well within the target range. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.
The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining a steady speed and direction. The overall performance of the landing was outstanding, with a score of 100.0%. The combination of a smooth touchdown, good touchdown distance, and perfect runway alignment resulted in a flawless landing, demonstrating the pilot's exceptional skill and control.
