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: off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,903 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 388 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Jehonville Air Base in EBBX, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 24, with a takeoff distance of 670 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 96 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 12°C temperature and winds of 11 knots at 28°. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the tailwind was 9 knots. The enroute climb started overhead EBBX Jehonville Air Base Bertrix, where the aircraft ascended from 2,527 feet above sea level to 20,807 feet above sea level, an increase of 18,280 feet in 11 minutes, covering 37 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began overhead Spincourt in Grand Est, France, lasting 2 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent 1 mile northwest of Jeandelize, France, descending from 20,844 feet above sea level to 19,831 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,013 feet in 2 minutes, covering 8 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed overhead Chambley, France, lasting 11 minutes and covering 141 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started overhead Bern, Switzerland, where the aircraft descended from 20,114 feet above sea level to 10,067 feet above sea level, a decrease of 10,047 feet in 3 minutes, covering 17 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began again overhead Erlenbach im Simmental, Switzerland, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its climb 3 miles north of Adelboden, Switzerland, ascending from 10,040 feet above sea level to 11,008 feet above sea level, an increase of 968 feet in 2 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 1 mile southeast of Adelboden, where the aircraft descended from 11,075 feet above sea level to 3,613 feet above sea level, a decrease of 7,462 feet in 4 minutes, covering 10 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 08 at Turtmann Air Base in LSMJ was made from the west, heading 89.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,533 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 08, which had a length of 1,903 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 96 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 386 meters, with a touchdown speed of 80 knots, which was fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -230 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions were 19°C temperature and winds of 3 knots at 220°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 586 meters, accounting for 31% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The total flight distance was 239 nautical miles, taking 48 minutes, and the aircraft used 18 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet has successfully landed at LSMJ Turtmann Air Base, achieving a score of 96.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 89.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,533 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 08, which has a length of 1,903 meters.
The pilot demonstrated good control during the final approach, as indicated by the perfect runway touchdown alignment. However, there were some areas for improvement. The threshold speed was excessively high at 96 kt, which may have been due to the pilot's experience or the aircraft's performance characteristics. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 80 kt was faster than recommended, which could have resulted in a higher touchdown rate.
The touchdown rate of -230 fpm was fair, indicating that the pilot may have been able to improve their descent rate to achieve a smoother touchdown. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 386 meters was good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 3 kt at 220°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 2 kt each, which reduced the risk of crosswind or tailwind effects on the landing.
Overall, the Vision Jet's landing at LSMJ Turtmann Air Base was successful, with a total landing distance of 586 meters, which is 31% of the runway length. The pilot's performance was good, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of threshold speed and touchdown speed.
