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 2,196 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 678 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The ATR 72 taxied from the parking area to runway 07 at TAPA V C Bird International Airport. The taxi-out phase lasted 1 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 07, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 117 kt and left the ground after traveling 611 m, which represented 24 % of the runway length. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 32 °C, wind 13 kt from 80 °, with a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 12 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced 2 miles north-east of TAPA, where the aircraft rose from 793 ft asl to 3,217 ft asl, gaining 2,424 ft in 2 minutes while covering 6 nm.
Level cruise began 2 miles west of Cedar Grove and continued for 19 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 62 nm at a steady altitude.
Descent was initiated 9 miles south-west of Trinity, with the aircraft descending from 4,142 ft asl to 1,715 ft asl, a loss of 2,427 ft in 3 minutes while covering 8 nm.
The final approach to runway 07 at TKPK Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport was flown from the south-west on a heading of 56.0 °, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,548 ft agl.
Landing on runway 07 occurred with a runway length of 2,196 m. The threshold speed was recorded at 120 kt, above the target. Touchdown took place 242 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 111 kt, with a smooth touchdown rate of minus 125 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather at the time was a temperature of 31 °C, wind 7 kt from 110 °, a 6 kt cross-wind and a 4 kt head-wind. The total landing distance measured 1,355 m, representing 62 % of the runway, and the rollout was offset by 28.3 m from the centreline.
In total, the flight covered 84 nm, took 30, and consumed 344 kg of fuel.
