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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,694 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 405 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an ATR 72, then departed from runway 16 at Freiburg im Breisgau Airfield, with a takeoff distance of 1,077 meters, which was 121% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 119 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 188 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Freiburg, and climbed from 1,939 feet above sea level to 19,622 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,683 feet, in 20 minutes and covering 62 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 1 mile north of Chatel-sur-Moselle, and lasted for 65 minutes, covering 279 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead Juvardeil, and descended from 19,954 feet above sea level to 2,890 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,064 feet, in 12 minutes and covering 42 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile northwest of Mauves-sur-Loire, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Sainte-Luce-sur-Loire, and descended from 2,372 feet above sea level to 1,431 feet above sea level, a decrease of 941 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 21 at Nantes Atlantique Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 227.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,349 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 404 meters, which was good, and a touchdown speed of 103 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was fair at -284 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 160 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The total landing distance was 754 meters, which was 28% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 399 nautical miles, which was covered in 113 minutes, and the aircraft used 1,059 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The ATR 72 aircraft successfully landed at Nantes Atlantique Airport, with a score of 99.3%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 227.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,349 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft then touched down on runway 21, which has a length of 2,694 meters.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 113 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 404 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively before touching down.
The touchdown speed of 103 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -284 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, although it could have been improved. However, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's direction and had aligned it with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 160°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was also 6 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, and the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft despite the slight wind.
The total landing distance of 754 meters was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot had managed to slow the aircraft down effectively and had maintained control of its descent. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's direction and had aligned it with the runway centerline as it rolled out.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot had demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach and landing phases.
