Next time
Add power on short final to hold 70 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 61 kt against a target of 70 kt, below reference speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, hold 70 kt down to the threshold.
Departure
Hold the nose until reaching 75 kt before rotating.
What happened: Rotation began at 69 kt, 6 kt before the 75 kt target.
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.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 300 ft gate: centreline 4.8° off, against a 1° limit and wings 15° of bank, against a 10° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 573 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 573 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 66 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to the departure runway, a movement that required 7 minutes and covered 1 nm.
Departing from runway 02 at AYGH Guhu Airstrip, the Kodiak 100 rolled for take-off, using 339 m of runway (59 % of the available length) and achieving liftoff at 70 kt. Ambient conditions were 15 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and no head-wind.
Climb commenced directly overhead AYGH, with the aircraft ascending from 4,059 ft asl to 8,008 ft asl - a gain of 3,949 ft - over 3 minutes while covering 5 nm.
Level cruise began 4 mi southeast of AYGH, persisted for 2 minutes and spanned 5 nm.
Descent was initiated 5 mi east of AYGH, descending from 8,008 ft asl to 4,091 ft asl - a loss of 3,917 ft - in 3 minutes and traversing 7 nm.
The final approach to runway 20 was executed from the north-east on a heading of 204.0°, with the aircraft at 0 nm from the threshold and 141 ft agl.
Landing on runway 20, which measures 573 m, was achieved with a threshold speed of 61 kt. Touchdown occurred 63 m down the runway at 56 kt and a vertical speed of 63 fpm, with the main gear positioned 6.7 m off the centreline. Weather remained 15 °C, wind 1 kt from 270°, cross-wind 1 kt, head-wind 0 kt.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 263 m (46 % of runway length) and alignment during rollout was reported as very good.
In total, the flight covered 19 nm, required 12 minutes of airborne time and consumed 35 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 20 at AYGH Guhu Airstrip was flown from the north-east on a heading of 204.0° with the aircraft at 141 ft AGL and zero distance from the threshold. Ambient temperature was 15 °C, wind was 1 kt from 270°, providing a 1 kt crosswind component and no headwind.
Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed measured 61 kt, slightly below the target value.
Touchdown occurred 63 m down the runway, a distance described as good, with a touchdown speed of 56 kt also judged good. The vertical rate at touchdown was 63 fpm, recorded as perfect, while the touchdown point was offset 6.7 m from the centreline.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 263 m, representing 46 % of the 573 m runway, and rollout alignment was described as very good.
To refine the already strong performance, adjust the approach speed to meet the target threshold speed and aim to keep the touchdown point within tighter centreline tolerance. Maintaining these parameters will further improve consistency on future landings.
