Hold the approach angle
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 six checks at 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 2,491 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 Airbus A319 departed from runway 28 at EDDN Nuremberg Airport, achieving a take-off roll of 1,416 m which represented 53 % of the available runway. Liftoff occurred at 150 kt under local conditions of 12 °C, wind 1 kt from 067°, with a 1 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt tailwind.
Climb commenced one mile west of EDDN, with the aircraft ascending from 2,040 ft asl to 39,005 ft asl, a gain of 36,964 ft achieved in 20 minutes while covering 140 nm.
Cruise began two miles east of Luzna in the Czech Republic and was maintained for 18 minutes, during which the flight covered 143 nm at level altitude.
Descent was initiated two miles south-west of Wegrow, Poland, descending from 39,030 ft asl to 2,038 ft asl, a loss of 36,992 ft over 20 minutes and a distance of 114 nm.
The final approach to runway 25 at EPLL Łódź Władysław Reymont Airport was conducted from the east on a heading of 251.0°, intercepting the approach at 4 nm and 1,436 ft agl.
Landing on runway 25 was executed with a threshold speed of 134 kt; touchdown occurred 87 m beyond the touchdown zone at 122 kt and a vertical speed of minus 239 fpm. Local weather at the time was 13 °C with wind 17 kt from 240°, a 3 kt crosswind and a 17 kt headwind. The aircraft required a landing distance of 1,280 m, representing 51 % of the runway length of 2,491 m.
Runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, and the aircraft decelerated safely along the remaining runway.
The aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm after exiting the runway.
In total, the flight covered 404 nm, lasted 66 minutes, and consumed 5,372 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A319 established the final approach to runway 25 at EPLL Łódź Władysław Reymont Airport from the east, tracking a heading of 251.0° at 4 nm and 1,436 ft agl while the local temperature was 13 °C, wind 17 kt from 240°, with a 3 kt cross-wind component and a 17 kt head-wind.
The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 134 kt.
Touchdown occurred 87 m beyond the touchdown zone; the aircraft’s speed at touchdown was 122 kt, described as good, and the vertical rate was fair at minus 239 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance measured 1,280 m, representing 51 % of the 2,491 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
To tighten the landing envelope, aim to achieve the target threshold speed rather than the slightly high 134 kt, and adjust the flare to place the touchdown within the designated zone rather than 87 m beyond it.
