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 seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: off the centreline.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,032 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 393 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, a C400 Corvalis, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LTBH Çanakkale Airport. This process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 22, with a takeoff distance of 379 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 80 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft began its enroute climb approximately 1 mile southwest of LTBH Çanakkale Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,021 feet above sea level to 2,249 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,227 feet, in just 1 minute and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.
The enroute level cruise phase started 3 miles south of Canakkale and lasted for 6 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 17 nautical miles. The descent phase began 5 miles east of LT86 Gökçeada Airport and lasted for 4 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 2,943 feet above sea level to 1,296 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,647 feet, and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19 at LTFK Gökçeada was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 200.0 degrees at an altitude of 3 nautical miles and 1,232 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 19 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 65 knots and a touchdown distance of 392 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect at -15 feet per minute, and the threshold height was slightly above the target.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 5 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,335 meters, which accounted for 66% of the runway. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.0 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.5 meters from the centerline.
The flight concluded with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area from the runway, a process that took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 31 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 17 minutes. The aircraft used 6 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, a Cessna 400 Corvalis, successfully landed at LTFK Gokceada airport, scoring a high 91.5% on its landing performance. The final approach to runway 19 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 200.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,232 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 65 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 392 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The threshold height at 56 feet agl was slightly above the target, but this did not seem to affect the overall landing performance.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 5°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing.
However, there were a couple of minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.0 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.5 meters from the centerline, indicating a slight deviation in the aircraft's direction after touchdown.
Overall, despite these minor issues, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft coming to a stop within 66% of the runway length. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth and controlled descent, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory in the given weather conditions.
