See Arrival Approach
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: no landing flap set.
At the 500 ft gate: no landing flap set and speed 69 kt FAST on the reference speed of 93 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,073 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,073 m of the 2,644 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,336 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport (KGKT), the Vision Jet began its taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 3 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. Upon reaching runway 28, the aircraft initiated its departure roll, utilizing 48% of the 754-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 99 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 28°C, with a wind speed of 14 knots from 219°, resulting in a 12-knot crosswind and a 7-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead Sevierville, Tennessee, and continued to ascend to 21,401 feet above sea level, a gain of 19,479 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 54 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase commenced 2 miles west of Weaverville, North Carolina, and lasted for 9 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 46 nautical miles. Subsequently, the enroute descent phase began 2 miles west of Casar, North Carolina, and the aircraft descended from 21,406 feet to 2,046 feet above sea level, a decrease of 19,361 feet in 10 minutes, covering 45 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 18L at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 176.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,301 feet above ground level.
Upon landing on runway 18L, the Vision Jet touched down at a speed of 97 knots, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown point was misaligned by 12.8 meters from the centerline, and the runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 13.1 meters from the centerline during the rollout phase. The total landing distance was 2,034 meters, accounting for 77% of the runway. Following a 2-minute taxiing period to the parking area, the aircraft had completed a total flight distance of 154 nautical miles, utilizing 141 kilograms of fuel and taking 40 minutes to complete the journey.
The final approach to runway 18L at KCLT Charlotte Douglas International Airport from the north was initiated at 4 nm and 1,301 ft above ground level, heading 176.0 °. The approach quality was satisfactory, but the threshold height at 102 ft agl was excessively over target, indicating a higher-than-desired altitude at the threshold. This was compounded by a threshold speed of 130 kt, which was excessively high, suggesting a potential loss of control during the landing phase.
The Vision Jet touched down at a speed of 97 kt, which was fast, and the touchdown point was very long, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown rate was smooth at -148 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.8 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the long touchdown point. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and a wind of 9 kt at 210 °, resulted in a crosswind of 5 kt and a headwind of 8 kt.
The total landing distance was 2,034 m, accounting for 77% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.1 m from the centreline, indicating a slight deviation from the desired path. Overall, the landing performance scored 67.0%, indicating room for improvement in terms of approach quality, threshold speed, and touchdown characteristics.
