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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,596 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 328 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 12 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Embraer E190, then departed from runway 26 at Tulsa International Airport (KTUL) in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The takeoff distance was 1,222 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 150 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 24 knots from a direction of 189 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 24 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The aircraft climbed to a height of 39,782 feet above sea level (asl) from an initial height of 1,733 feet asl, covering a distance of 168 nautical miles in 25 minutes.
After reaching the cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles southeast of the X65 Txaerosport Dorchester airport in Texas. This phase lasted for 20 minutes and covered a distance of 150 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, which started 4 miles southeast of Temple, Texas. The descent from 40,323 feet asl to 5,058 feet asl took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 87 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which started 3 miles northeast of the 77TS Flying R Ranch Airport in New Braunfels, Texas. This phase lasted for only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, which started 3 miles southwest of the 57XA Ausmus Airport in New Braunfels, Texas. The descent from 4,991 feet asl to 2,962 feet asl took 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead the TS55 Bat Cave Field airport in Garden Ridge, Texas. This phase lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 22 at San Antonio International Airport (KSAT), which was located to the northeast. The aircraft was heading at 220.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,566 feet above ground level (agl) and was 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 22 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 328 meters. However, the touchdown speed was slightly fast at 121 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -370 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.9 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 190 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 12 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,140 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 438 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 83 minutes. The aircraft used 2,170 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Embraer E190 aircraft successfully landed at San Antonio International Airport (KSAT) on runway 22, achieving a score of 93.6%. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 220.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,566 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 121 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. The touchdown distance of 328 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -370 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting a slight impact upon touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.9 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 23°C, a wind speed of 14 knots from 190°, resulting in a 7-knot crosswind and a 12-knot headwind.
The total landing distance of 1,140 meters was 44% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot maintaining control throughout the rollout phase. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway alignment, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error.
