Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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 1,670 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,670 m of the 3,100 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 597 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight onboard the Airbus A320 began with a 9-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at CYVR Vancouver Intl. The departure roll on runway 26L covered 2nm and required 1,615m of the runway, with a liftoff speed of 160 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 11°C with a 4 knot wind coming from 260°, resulting in a 1 knot crosswind and 4 knot headwind.
The enroute climb began 1 mile west of CYVR and took the aircraft from 1,023 ft asl to 34,140 ft asl in 12 minutes, covering 121nm. The level cruise portion of the flight started 4 miles north of Logan Lake and lasted 11 minutes, covering 197nm. The enroute descent phase commenced 19 miles southeast of Thunder Lake, bringing the aircraft from 33,934 ft asl to 4,262 ft asl in 12 minutes over 117nm.
The landing at CYEG Edmonton Intl was on runway 30, with a length of 3,100m. The aircraft crossed the threshold at 38 ft agl at a speed of 143 knots. The touchdown occurred 596m from the threshold at a speed of 135 knots, with a VSI of -376 ft/m. The local weather at the time of landing was 1°C with a 19 knot wind coming from 320°, resulting in a 2 knot crosswind and a 19 knot headwind. The total landing distance was 1,586m, which accounted for 51% of the runway.
After landing, a 1-minute taxi from the runway to the parking area was completed, covering less than 1nm. The total flight distance of the journey was 448nm, which took 54 minutes to complete and consumed 2,866kg of fuel.
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 95.4% is a commendable achievement.
During the Approach Phase, your excellent glideslope alignment demonstrates your precision and skill in maintaining the correct descent angle. However, it is noted that your speed was slightly above target, which is a small area for improvement.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, your good threshold height indicates a strong sense of awareness and judgment in preparing for the touchdown. The very poor landing flare suggests that you may need to work on your technique in minimizing the vertical descent rate just before touchdown. This will help ensure a smoother landing and reduce the risk of a hard touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, although your touchdown rate was hard and your speed was a little above the target, it is positive to see that the landing flare resulted in a good touchdown point of 177m beyond the touchdown zone. Additionally, the runway touchdown position being very good reflects your ability to control the aircraft and make a precise touchdown.
Lastly, the Rollout Phase showcases your skill in maintaining runway alignment, with it being rated as very good. This indicates your ability to control the aircraft during the landing rollout and stay on the correct path.
In conclusion, while there are specific areas such as speed control and landing flare technique that could be refined, your overall performance during the landing was strong. Keep up the good work and continue to practice and refine your skills to achieve even higher scores in the future.
