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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: no landing flap set.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set.

Side view — the last 962 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 962 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 179 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 area to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, then departed from runway 02 at I74 Grimes. The takeoff distance was 295 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 82 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 301 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of I74 Grimes Urbana, Ohio, and ascended from an altitude of 2,083 feet above sea level to 4,414 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,331 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 16 minutes and covered a distance of 56 nautical miles. This phase began 1 mile east of Urbana, Ohio. The aircraft then started its enroute descent overhead Goshen, Ohio, and descended from an altitude of 4,513 feet above sea level to 2,331 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,181 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22 at I69 Clermont County was made from the northeast, heading 218.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,458 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 22, which had a length of 962 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 88 knots. The touchdown distance was 177 meters, and the touchdown speed was 75 knots, both of which were considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -219 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 285 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 465 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The final phase of the flight involved taxiing from the runway to the parking area, which took just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 71 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 29 minutes. The aircraft used 34 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, successfully landed on runway 22 at I69 Clermont County with a score of 97.2%. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 218.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,458 feet above ground level.
The pilot executed a precise landing, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 88 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 177 meters, and the touchdown speed was maintained at a safe 75 knots. However, the touchdown rate was slightly below average at -219 feet per minute, indicating a slightly longer descent than ideal.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from 285°. This resulted in a 10-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The total landing distance was 465 meters, accounting for 48% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.
The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, resulting in a high score of 97.2%.
