Narrative:

[During the] landing from an unstabilized approach into ZZZ; I began configuring the aircraft very late which resulted in excessive airspeed throughout the approach and landing. I feel that contributing factors include: lack of recency; abnormally low traffic resulting in no slowing issued by approach control which is unusual for ZZZ; [and] my personal determination to 'complete the mission' leading to the continued unstable approach and failure to go around in this instance. My determination to 'complete the mission' ultimately led to this unstabilized approach and landing and is something that I have to commit to improve.
