Keep the speed up 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.

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 305 m and 152 m above the runway.
At the 305 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 152 m gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,043 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 411 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, taking 12 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departure roll took place on runway 33, with the aircraft taking off after covering 44% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 1,763 meters, and the liftoff speed was 156 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Kuala Lumpur, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of the airport and reaching an altitude of 10,669 meters above sea level. This climb, which covered a distance of 114 nautical miles, took 22 minutes to complete. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 12 miles east of Kampung Kuala Tahan, and lasted for 49 minutes, covering a distance of 342 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 8 miles west of Bac Lieu, Vietnam, and the aircraft descended from 10,670 meters to 2,134 meters above sea level, a decrease of 8,535.6 meters in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 8 miles west of Can Gio, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 6 miles north of Can Gio, and the aircraft descended from 1,925 meters to 915 meters above sea level, a decrease of 1,010 meters in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 6 miles northwest of Thi Xa Phu My, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 20 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25R at Tan Son Nhat International Airport took place from the east, with the aircraft heading 249.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 369.2 meters above ground level. The landing on runway 25R, which had a length of 3,043 meters, was successful, with a touchdown distance of 413 meters and a touchdown speed of 127 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -1.4 meters per second, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius. The total landing distance was 1,396 meters, which was 46% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in 9 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 611 nautical miles, and the flight took 119 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 4,448 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at VVTS Tan Son Nhat International Airport, with a final approach score of 98.0%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the east, heading 249.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 369.2 meters above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 25R, which has a length of 3,043 meters. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 129 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the landing.
The touchdown distance of 413 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold. The touchdown speed of 127 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -1.4 meters per second was fair, suggesting that the aircraft was able to touch down with a moderate rate of descent.
However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centerline, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were warm, with a temperature of 28°C.
The total landing distance of 1,396 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and maintaining a stable path during the rollout.
