Shorten the long landing
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 152 m above the runway. The 305 m gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,778 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 247 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 2.01 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 93.8% is a fantastic achievement! You demonstrated excellent skills in the Approach Phase with perfect glideslope alignment, setting the stage for a successful landing. Your Landing Phase exhibited strong technique with a slightly below target threshold height and a flawless landing flare.
In the Touchdown Phase, while your touchdown rate was very heavy and your speed was slightly above target, you managed to touch down within the touchdown zone and only 3.9m off the runway's centerline. This minor deviation is something to keep in mind for future landings, but your ability to control the aircraft and make a safe touchdown is commendable.
During the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was slightly off at 4.1m from the centerline. This is another area for improvement, but it did not detract significantly from your overall performance.
Overall, your strong performance in the Approach and Landing Phases outweighs any minor issues in the Touchdown and Rollout Phases. Keep up the excellent work and continue practicing to perfect your landings even further. With your current skills and dedication, you are well on your way to becoming a top-notch pilot. Great job!
