Improve the touchdown
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 1,990 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 204 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 1.79 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320 taxied from the parking area to runway 19R at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 19R, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 161 kt and left the ground after traveling 1,885 m, which represented 57 % of the runway length; local weather reported a temperature of 27 °C, wind 14 kt from 260°, a 13 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced 1 mile east of Maersta, with the airplane ascending from 1,113 ft asl to 34,380 ft asl, a gain of 33,267 ft achieved in 17 minutes while covering 110 nm.
The first cruise segment began 3 miles east of Rimforsa and continued for 70 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 549 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 2 miles north of Zelezna Ruda, with the flight descending from 34,815 ft asl to 32,880 ft asl, a loss of 1,935 ft in 2 minutes over a distance of 13 nm.
A second cruise phase was initiated 2 miles east of Zachenberg, lasting 3 minutes and spanning 26 nm.
The subsequent descent began 2 miles north-west of Simbach, where the aircraft dropped from 32,560 ft asl to 3,288 ft asl, a decrease of 29,272 ft completed in 20 minutes while covering 108 nm.
For the final approach to runway 26 at LOWI Innsbruck Airport, the aircraft approached from the east on a heading of 261.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,370 ft agl.
Landing on runway 26 was executed with a threshold speed of 139 kt; touchdown occurred 193 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 136 kt, a vertical rate of minus 740 fpm, and a lateral deviation of 5.3 m from the centreline, under weather conditions of 28 °C, wind 1 kt from 45°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 1 kt tail-wind component.
The runway rollout covered a total distance of 1,082 m, representing 54 % of the runway length, and alignment during rollout was reported as very good.
After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, traveling less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 814nm, required 124 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 5,028 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A319 approached runway 34 at LGMK Mykonos Island National Airport from the south on a heading of 341.0° at 4 nm and 1,303 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a speed slightly above target at 132 kt and the threshold height was good. The wind was reported as 32 kt from 350°, providing a 31 kt headwind component and a 5 kt crosswind.
Touchdown occurred 370 m down the runway at a speed of 128 kt, described as a little fast, with a fair vertical rate of minus 258 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.4 m from the centreline.
Maintain the target approach speed more precisely and refine flare timing to reduce touchdown speed and vertical rate, which will further improve alignment and overall landing quality.
