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 2,161 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,161 m of the 4,065 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 758 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, a landing score of 83.2% is a respectable result, indicating that the pilot demonstrated competency in many areas of the landing process.
In the Approach Phase, the good glideslope alignment shows that the pilot was able to properly descend towards the runway, which is crucial for a safe and controlled landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, while the threshold height was above target, the very poor landing flare indicates that there is room for improvement in terms of timing and technique during the final moments before touchdown. Practicing proper landing flares will help improve overall landing performance.
During the Touchdown Phase, the fair touchdown rate and on-target speed suggest that the pilot has a solid understanding of how to approach the runway. However, the fact that the touchdown point was 344m beyond the touchdown zone is a concern, as it may indicate issues with judgment or situational awareness. Additionally, the runway touchdown position being 16.2m from the centerline suggests that there may have been some difficulty in maintaining alignment during the touchdown phase.
In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 17.1m from the centerline may indicate challenges with maintaining straight and centered taxiing after touchdown. This aspect of the landing process is important for safe and efficient runway exits.
Overall, while there are areas for improvement, the pilot should be commended for their strengths in glideslope alignment, touchdown rate, and on-target speed. By focusing on refining landing flares, improving judgment and alignment during touchdown, and practicing straight taxiing post-touchdown, the pilot can work towards achieving an even higher landing score in the future. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in all phases of the landing process.
