Field VFR need to be stable at 500 ft AFL, IFR 1000 ft AFL
Aircraft in final landing configuration, airspeed within CFM limits and all briefings and checklist done. If on a instrument approach must be on the profile for the apch being flown. If on a visual in a position vertically and laterally so a normal descent and landing can be made.

Never let ATC fly your airplane or put you in a bad position. I had to have a talk to a supervisor in PIT because a controller got upset when we a A300 could not do 200kts to the marker. The controller actually was a smart a## on the radio mocking us. I simply said we have to be stable at 1000 AFL and give me your initials and a phone number.
