Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 13,187 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,675 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 73.0% indicates that there are areas for improvement in the approach, landing, touchdown, and rollout phases.
In the Approach Phase, it is noted that the descent path was above the glideslope limit, which may have contributed to a less-than-ideal landing. It is important for pilots to adhere to proper descent procedures to ensure a smooth and safe landing. I encourage the pilot to review descent techniques and practice maintaining a stable descent path during future flights.
During the Landing Phase, the threshold height was significantly above the target, and there was a very poor landing flare. These factors may have impacted the smoothness and accuracy of the landing. Proper flare technique is crucial for a successful touchdown, so I suggest focusing on refining this skill through practice and training.
The Touchdown Phase had some areas of improvement, such as the touchdown point being 1359 ft beyond the touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position being 60 ft from the centerline. While the touchdown rate and speed were on target, the positioning could be improved. I recommend working on touchdown precision and alignment to ensure a more accurate landing in the future.
In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was 82 ft from the centerline. This may indicate the need for better directional control during the rollout. Practice maintaining runway alignment and centerline tracking to enhance overall landing performance.
Overall, while there are areas for improvement in this landing score, it is important to view this feedback as an opportunity for growth and development. By focusing on refining skills and techniques in each phase of the landing process, the pilot can work towards achieving higher scores and more successful landings in the future. Keep a positive attitude and continue to strive for improvement with each flight. Trust in your abilities and dedication to mastering the art of landing aircraft, and success will follow. Happy flying!
