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.

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 2,394 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 760 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Airbus A320 began with a smooth taxi from the parking area to the runway at LFBO Toulouse-Blagnac Airport, covering 1 nm in 9 minutes. The departure roll on runway 32R was efficient, with a takeoff distance of 1,521 m, 50% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 157 kn. As the aircraft climbed enroute, it started at 1,519 ft asl and reached an altitude of 34,430 ft asl in 21 minutes, covering 128 nm.
During the enroute level cruise, the aircraft traveled over Costaros in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France for 27 minutes, covering 188 nm. The descent began over Vallerois-le-Bois in Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, France, descending from 33,136 ft asl to 4,241 ft asl in 14 minutes, covering 78 nm. Another climb took place over Duppigheim in Grand Est, France, ascending from 4,242 ft asl to 5,539 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 7 nm.
The second enroute level cruise occurred over Schiltigheim in Grand Est, France for 9 minutes, covering 18 nm. The final descent phase began 1 mile northwest of Andlau in Grand Est, France, descending from 4,929 ft asl to 2,336 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 7 nm.
The landing at LFST Strasbourg Airport on runway 05 had an efficient touchdown point 761 m from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 129 kn and a VSI of -76 ft/m. The total landing distance was 1,510 m, covering 63% of the runway length.
After landing, a short taxi to the parking area from the runway took 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 435 nm, with a flight time of 95 minutes. The aircraft used 3,797 kg of fuel during the journey. The local weather varied between departure and arrival, with temperatures ranging from 18 °C to 10 °C, and wind speeds ranging from 6 kn to 8 kn, with crosswinds and headwinds affecting the flight path at different stages.
Great job on achieving a landing score of 95.0%! Let's break down your performance in each phase of the aircraft landing to see where we excelled and where we can make some improvements.
During the Approach Phase, you did an excellent job in maintaining glideslope alignment, which is essential for a smooth landing. However, your speed was slightly above target, indicating that there may have been some room for improvement in managing your approach speed. Perhaps next time, try to adjust your speed earlier to ensure a more precise approach.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, you demonstrated good control over the threshold height, which is crucial for a safe touchdown. However, there was a noted issue with the landing flare. A proper landing flare is essential for a smooth touchdown and can help reduce stress on the landing gear. I would recommend practicing the flare technique to ensure a more controlled landing in the future.
In the Touchdown Phase, your touchdown rate was excellent, and your speed was on target, which are both positive indicators of a successful touchdown. However, the touchdown point being 716m beyond the touchdown zone suggests that there may have been an issue with timing or planning during the landing. Additionally, the slight deviation from the runway centerline could be improved upon by adjusting your alignment during the approach phase.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was very good, which is essential for safe taxiing and clearing the runway efficiently. Overall, your performance in this phase was commendable.
In conclusion, while you demonstrated proficiency in many aspects of the aircraft landing, there are areas where we can focus on improvement to further enhance your skills. I recommend practicing the landing flare technique, adjusting your speed earlier during the approach, and working on your alignment to ensure a more precise landing in the future. Keep up the excellent work, and with continued practice and attention to detail, you will surely see even higher scores in your future landings. Great job!
