Configure earlier
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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,531 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,531 m of the 2,356 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 469 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 727-200 taxied from the parking area to runway 05 at MMMM General Francisco J. Mujica International Airport, a movement that required eight minutes and covered two nautical miles.
During the departure roll on runway 05, the aircraft used 2,227 m of runway, representing 66 % of the available length, and lifted off at 153 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 24 °C, wind from 120° at 7 kt, with a 6 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced three miles north-east of MMMM, where the airplane accelerated from 7,154 ft asl to 35,999 ft asl, an altitude gain of 28,844 ft achieved in 14 minutes while covering 88 nm.
The first level cruise began eight miles south-east of San Bernardo, persisting for 78 minutes and traversing 614 nm at the planned cruise altitude.
Descent was initiated 17 miles south of Onavas; the aircraft descended from 35,546 ft asl to 3,176 ft asl, a loss of 32,370 ft in 14 minutes, and covered 89 nm during the maneuver.
A brief second cruise segment started four miles south of MMEC Las Brechas Airport Estación Zamora, lasting three minutes and spanning nine nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at MMHO General Ignacio P. Garcia International Airport was flown from the north-east, on a heading of 236.0° at four nautical miles and 1,466 ft agl.
Landing on runway 23, which is 2,356 m long, occurred with a threshold height of 62 ft agl above target and a threshold speed of 145 kt slightly above target. Touchdown was recorded 162 m beyond the touchdown zone at 137 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 463 fpm and a lateral deviation of 7.4 m from the centreline. Local weather at the time was 34 °C, wind from 90° at 24 kt, a 12 kt cross-wind component and a 21 kt tail-wind component. The total landing distance measured 1,559 m, equal to 66 % of the runway, and the runway rollout alignment was judged very good.
The aircraft rolled out along the runway with alignment described as very good, bringing the flight to a controlled stop.
Subsequent taxi-in to the parking area required four minutes and covered less than one nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered 811 nm, lasted 121 minutes, and consumed 7,430 kg of fuel.
