I like to think of this in terms of a stabilised approach as described in Annex 1 to Commission Regulation (EU) No 965/2012 (the Operations Regulation):
stabilised approach (SAp)’ means an approach that is flown in a controlled and appropriate manner in terms of configuration, energy and control of the flight path from a pre-determined point or altitude/height down to a point 50 ft above the threshold or the point where the flare manoeuvre is initiated if higher;
