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 1,274 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,274 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 109 m short of the threshold. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Westerland Sylt Airport took approximately 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll commenced on runway 14, with the aircraft clearing the runway threshold at 481 meters, representing 23% of the runway's length. Liftoff speed was achieved at 86 knots, as the aircraft lifted off into the local weather conditions, characterized by a temperature of 13°C and a wind of 8 knots at 160°.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began ascending from 215 feet above sea level to 1,096 feet, an increase of 880 feet, over a distance of 2 nautical miles, within a 1-minute timeframe. This climb phase was initiated overhead Tinnum, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 8 minutes and covered 21 nautical miles, commencing 1 mile southwest of Keitum. Subsequent enroute descent and level cruise phases were conducted, with the aircraft descending from 2,193 feet to 1,608 feet, a decrease of 584 feet, over a distance of 4 nautical miles, within a 2-minute timeframe. The final approach to runway 11R at Flensburg-Schäferhaus Airport was initiated from the west, with the aircraft touching down before the threshold at a speed of 79 knots, resulting in a touchdown rate of -50 feet per minute. However, the touchdown speed was slightly above the recommended value.
The total landing distance was 208 meters, representing 20% of the runway's length, with the runway touchdown position being misaligned by 8.5 meters from the centerline. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.5 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 38 nautical miles, taking approximately 15 minutes, and the aircraft consumed 13 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The final approach to runway 11R at EDXF Flensburg-Schäferhaus Airport was initiated from the west, with the aircraft Bonanza G36 aligning with the runway at a heading of 113.0° at 4 nautical miles and 704 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a gentle descent rate of -50 fpm, indicating a well-controlled approach. However, the touchdown speed of 79 kt was slightly above the recommended threshold, which may have contributed to a slightly firm touchdown.
The aircraft touched down before the threshold, resulting in a short landing distance of 208 meters, which is 20% of the runway length. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.5 meters from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path or a miscalculation of the touchdown point. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14°C and a light wind of 2 kt from 272°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
During the rollout phase, the aircraft remained slightly misaligned from the centreline, with a deviation of 8.5 meters. Despite this, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 95.5%. The pilot's ability to maintain control and navigate the aircraft to a safe touchdown, despite the slight deviations, was commendable.
