Keep the wings level on final
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,594 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 510 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-600 taxied from the parking area to runway 33 at PACD Cold Bay Airport in a period of 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 33, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 138 kt after using 1,355 m of runway, which represented 44 % of the available length. Local weather at the time was 10 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 260°, providing a 7 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt headwind.
Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north of PACD, with the airplane ascending from 1,104 ft asl to 40,897 ft asl, an increase of 39,793 ft achieved in 38 minutes while covering 285 nm.
The first cruise segment began 4 miles south-east of AK35 Buffalo Row Heliport near Delta Junction and continued for 71 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 583 nm at level altitude.
Descent was initiated 28 miles west of PFAL Allakaket Airport, with the aircraft descending from 41,000 ft asl to 4,165 ft asl, a loss of 36,836 ft in 18 minutes while traversing 136 nm.
A brief second cruise started 11 miles west of PAGB Galbraith Lake Airport, lasting 3 minutes and covering 10 nm before the final approach began.
The final approach to runway 14 at PAGB Galbraith Lake Airport was flown from the north-west, on a heading of 141.0° at 4 nm and 1,291 ft agl.
Landing on runway 14 was executed with a threshold speed of 129 kt; touchdown occurred 90 m beyond the touchdown zone at 118 kt and a smooth vertical speed of minus 101 fpm. The runway length is 1,594 m, and the total landing distance measured 1,005 m, representing 63 % of the runway. Local weather at landing was 12 °C with calm winds (0 kt at 282°) and no cross- or headwind components.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, and the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,020 nm, took 135 minutes, and consumed 6,105 kg of fuel.
Boeing 737-600, Score 99.3%, made a final approach to runway 14 at PAGB Galbraith Lake Airport from the north-west on a heading of 141.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,291 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
Runway 14 is 1,594 m long with a good threshold height and a threshold speed recorded as good at 129 kt. The flare resulted in a touchdown point 90 m beyond the touchdown zone.
Touchdown occurred at a speed of 118 kt, described as good, with a smooth touchdown rate of minus 101 fpm and runway touchdown alignment rated very good.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 1,005 m, representing 63 % of the runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good. Local weather was 12 °C with wind 0 kt from 282 °, crosswind 0 kt and headwind 0 kt.
Maintain the current high standard while adjusting the flare to place the touchdown point nearer the start of the touchdown zone, which will reduce the overshoot distance and further optimise runway usage.
