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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 367 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight was conducted on an Embraer E195 aircraft, departing from runway 13L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll, taking off with a speed of 156 knots and covering a distance of 1,499 meters, which is 41% of the runway length.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots coming from a direction of 170°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, flying overhead the town of Vecses in Hungary. This level cruise lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 1 mile south east of the town of Ullo. The descent was a steep one, with the aircraft losing 669 feet in altitude over a distance of 3 nautical miles in just 2 minutes. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 31R at LHBP, flying from the south east and heading towards the runway at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 416 feet above ground level.
The landing was conducted on runway 31R, which has a length of 3,701 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 146 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, at 369 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 144 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -206 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot coming from a direction of 270°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The total flight distance was 11 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 331 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an E195, successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport on runway 31R. The final approach was executed from the southeast, aligning with a heading of 316.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 416 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was marked by a high level of precision, with a score of 99.5%.
Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated a good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed, registering at 146 knots. This may have been a result of the aircraft's approach speed being slightly higher than intended, but it did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall landing.
The touchdown distance of 369 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent throughout the landing. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was a little fast, suggesting that the aircraft may have been slightly over-controlled during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown rate of -206 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating a moderate rate of descent.
One of the most notable aspects of this landing was the perfect runway touchdown alignment. This suggests that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway and was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach throughout.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing conditions ideal for the aircraft.
Overall, the landing of the E195 at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of precision and control throughout the approach and landing.
