Track the centreline
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: centreline 1.0° off, against a 1° limit.
At the 500 ft gate: glideslope 7.7° against the runway's 3° and centreline 4.7° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,538 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 3,027 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departure from Cap Haitien International Airport, runway 23, was initiated with a taxiing period of 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll, utilizing 2,820 feet, or 32% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 99 knots. Local weather conditions at the time of departure included a temperature of 80°F and a wind of 2 knots at 185°, resulting in a 1-knot crosswind and a 2-knot headwind.
The enroute climb phase commenced 1 mile southwest of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 938 feet above sea level to 30,011 feet, a vertical increase of 29,073 feet, over a distance of 72 nautical miles in 20 minutes. Following this, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, lasting 82 minutes and covering 419 nautical miles, 32 miles north of Port-de-Paix. The enroute descent phase began 34 miles southeast of Ocean Cay Heliport, with the aircraft descending from 29,724 feet to 1,200 feet, a decrease of 28,525 feet, over a distance of 93 nautical miles in 21 minutes. A short climb phase followed, as the aircraft ascended from 1,190 feet to 1,608 feet, an increase of 417 feet, over a distance of 6 nautical miles in 2 minutes, 2 miles northeast of Miami Beach. The final approach to runway 26L at Miami International Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 263.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,600 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 26L was executed with a touchdown point 1,547 feet beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 70 knots and a rate of -81 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 27 feet from the centerline. The total landing distance was 3,717 feet, or 35% of the runway, with a runway rollout alignment that was very good. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 596 nautical miles, with a flight time of 133 minutes and a fuel consumption of 233 pounds.
The Vision Jet touched down on runway 26L at KMIA Miami International Airport, a 10,480-foot-long runway, with a threshold height of 147 feet above ground level (agl), which was excessively over the target. The approach quality was compromised by this excessive height, which may have contributed to the subsequent touchdown characteristics. The aircraft's threshold speed of 98 knots was also well above the target, indicating a potentially aggressive approach.
As the Vision Jet made contact with the runway, it touched down at a speed of 70 knots, which was good, and a touchdown rate of -81 feet per minute (fpm), which was excellent. However, the touchdown point was 1,547 feet beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a longer-than-desired rollout. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 27 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a slight drift during the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 79°F and a wind of 8 knots at 100°, contributed to a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 7 knots.
The Vision Jet's rollout was characterized by very good alignment with the runway centreline. The total landing distance of 3,717 feet, which was 35% of the runway length, was acceptable. Overall, the landing performance of the Vision Jet scored 79.1%, indicating a good but not exceptional landing. The excessive threshold height and speed, combined with the touchdown point being beyond the touchdown zone, contributed to the lower score.
