Hold the approach angle
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 five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,488 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 305 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft departed from runway 23 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde, employing a take-off roll of 1,544 m which represented 62 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 150 kt. Ambient conditions were 17 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, giving a 1 kt headwind and a 1 kt crosswind component.
During the climb the airplane passed overhead Donderen in the province of Drenthe, ascending from 900 ft asl to 1,174 ft asl - a gain of 275 ft - in less than one minute while covering less than one nautical mile.
Level cruise commenced one mile west of Donderen and was maintained for two minutes, during which the aircraft travelled seven nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 05 at EHGG was conducted from the southwest on a heading of 45.0°, intercepting the approach at four nautical miles out and 1,515 ft agl.
Landing was executed on runway 05, whose length is 2,493 m. The threshold speed was 108 kt; touchdown occurred 308 m down the runway at 97 kt with a descent rate of minus 238 fpm. The touchdown point was offset by 3.7 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 16 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a 1 kt crosswind and a 1 kt tailwind. Total landing distance measured 1,170 m, representing 47 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
The rollout continued smoothly after touchdown, maintaining the alignment noted and bringing the aircraft to a stop within the calculated landing distance.
In total the flight covered 15 nm, taking 7 minutes, and consumed -2,332 kg of fuel.
The Just Flight F100 equipped with integral airstairs and a large cargo load approached runway 05 at EHGG Groningen Airport Eelde from the south-west on a heading of 45.0° while 4 nm out and at 1,515 ft agl, with a temperature of 16 °C, wind 1 kt from 270°, a 1 kt crosswind component and a 1 kt tailwind component.
At the threshold the height was reported as good and the required threshold speed was 108 kt.
Touchdown occurred 308 m down the runway at a speed of 97 kt; the vertical rate was fair at minus 238 fpm and the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.7 m from the centreline.
The aircraft stopped after a total landing distance of 1,170 m, representing 47 % of the 2,493 m runway, and the rollout alignment was very good.
Refine lateral alignment to reduce the 3.7 m offset and aim for a smoother flare to bring the touchdown rate closer to zero for continued improvement toward an optimal landing.
