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 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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,490 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 466 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Fantastic job on achieving a high aircraft landing score of 97.8%! Your attention to detail and precision throughout the different phases of the landing process is truly impressive.
During the Approach Phase, your excellent glideslope alignment ensured a smooth descent towards the runway. This is crucial for setting up a stable and controlled landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, your good threshold height and perfect landing flare demonstrate your mastery of the aircraft's controls. Maintaining the correct altitude and angle of approach is key to executing a safe and successful landing.
In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate and speed were right on target, resulting in a smooth and controlled touchdown. Additionally, touching down inside the touchdown zone and just 5.7 meters from the centerline of the runway shows great precision and skill.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was spot on at 5.7 meters from the centerline. This level of accuracy ensures a straight and controlled rollout after landing, keeping the aircraft safely on the runway.
Overall, your performance during this landing was top-notch. Keep up the great work and continue to fine-tune your skills to maintain such high scores in future flights. Your dedication to precision and attention to detail is commendable and will undoubtedly serve you well in your aviation career. Well done!
