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 3,203 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 324 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Great job on achieving a 94.6% aircraft landing score! Your approach phase was generally solid, with the only issue being a descent path slightly below the glideslope limit. However, your landing phase was excellent, with a good threshold height and a well-executed landing flare.
In the touchdown phase, the touchdown rate was a bit hard, and the speed was slightly above target. However, you managed to touchdown within the touchdown zone, which is commendable. The runway touchdown position being 4.4 meters from the centerline is a minor deviation but still a decent performance.
During the rollout phase, the runway alignment was a little off at 5.5 meters from the centerline. This is an area where you can focus on improvement for next time.
Overall, you should be proud of your performance, but there are areas for improvement to achieve an even higher score in the future. Keep up the good work and continue to fine-tune your landing techniques for even better results next time. Great job!
