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.

One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,556 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,556 m of the 2,033 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,086 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving a landing score of 90.6%! Your performance during the approach phase was particularly commendable, with excellent glideslope alignment ensuring a smooth descent towards the runway. Additionally, your landing phase showcased skillful execution, with a good threshold height and a perfect landing flare that helped achieve a successful touchdown.
During the touchdown phase, your touchdown rate and speed were spot on, leading to a stable and controlled landing. It is also worth noting that you utilized more than 50% of the available runway for touchdown, showcasing careful planning and efficient use of resources. However, the runway touchdown position being 3.8m from the centerline indicates a slight deviation that could be improved upon in future landings.
In the rollout phase, your runway alignment was slightly off at 12.7m from the centerline. While this may have impacted the overall score, it presents an opportunity for further refinement in maintaining alignment during the rollout phase.
Overall, your performance demonstrates strong proficiency in various aspects of the landing process. By continuing to focus on precision and consistency in all phases of the landing, you can further enhance your skills and strive for even higher scores in future assessments. Keep up the great work, and keep striving for excellence in your aviation endeavors!
