Be on speed by the gate
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 six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,770 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 822 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in 9 minutes, covering 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 24R, the aircraft used 3,883 ft of runway, representing 34 % of the available length, and lifted off at 154 kt. Ambient conditions were 77 °F with a wind of 8 kt from 280°, including a 5 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind.
The first en-route climb began overhead the departure airport, climbing from 492 ft asl to 3,393 ft asl, an increase of 2,901 ft in 1 minute while covering 3 nm.
A subsequent climb segment started 5 mi south of Castelldefels, ascending from 4,017 ft asl to 36,015 ft asl, a gain of 31,997 ft over 18 minutes and traversing 110 nm.
The initial level cruise commenced 2 mi south of Gava and lasted 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 6 nm.
A longer cruise phase began 41 mi east of Llafranc, persisting for 150 minutes and encompassing 1,183 nm of flight.
Descent operations were initiated 25 mi north-west of Visby, with the aircraft descending from 36,002 ft asl to 1,421 ft asl, a loss of 34,581 ft in 24 minutes while covering 137 nm.
Final approach to runway 19R at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport was conducted from the north on a heading of 190.0°, entering the approach at 4 nm and 1,289 ft agl. The aircraft then descended from 1,387 ft agl to 60 ft agl in 105 seconds, meeting the stabilisation gate criteria.
Landing on runway 19R was achieved with a threshold speed of 130 kt; touchdown occurred at 126 kt, 829 ft down the runway, and the vertical speed was -147 fpm. Local weather reported 72 °F with a wind of 8 kt from 280°, a crosswind of 8 kt and no headwind. The total landing roll measured 3,637 ft, equal to 34 % of the runway length.
Runway rollout alignment was recorded as perfect as the aircraft decelerated and exited the runway.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The entire flight covered 1,450 nm, lasted 213 minutes, and consumed 18,796 lb of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 entered the final approach to runway 19R at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda from the north on a heading of 190.0° at 4 nm and 1,289 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, being more than 5 kt below VREF. The aircraft descended from 1,387 ft agl to 60 ft agl in 105 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 130 kt.
Touchdown occurred 829 ft down the runway at a speed of 126 kt, which was judged good, with a smooth touchdown rate of -147 fpm and runway touchdown alignment described as very good.
The total landing distance was 3,637 ft, representing 34 % of the 10,770 ft runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
Maintain a speed at least 5 kt above VREF by the 1,000 ft gate to achieve a stabilised approach, and verify speed adherence during the final descent to avoid the instability noted. This adjustment will help raise the overall score while preserving the strong touchdown and rollout performance.
