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 1,564 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,564 m of the 3,837 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 423 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Airbus A320 started at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport with a taxi time of 12 minutes covering 3 nm before departing from runway 07R. The takeoff distance was 1,356 m, representing 34% of the runway length, with a liftoff speed of 150 kn. The local weather at departure was 8 °C with a 9 kn wind at 90 ° resulting in a 3 kn crosswind and an 8 kn headwind.
During the climb, the aircraft ascended from 1,183 ft asl to 28,778 ft asl over the course of 17 minutes, covering 82 nm. The enroute level cruise lasted 34 minutes over Heiligenthal, Saxony-Anhalt, covering 219 nm. The descent began 1 mile west of Pfalzgrafenweiler, Baden-Wuerttemberg, with the aircraft descending from 28,490 ft asl to 2,150 ft asl over 15 minutes and 67 nm.
Approaching Bale Mulhouse Airport, the final approach to runway 15 from the northwest had the aircraft heading 155.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,275 ft agl. The landing took place on runway 15 with a length of 3,837 m, a good threshold height, and a touchdown speed of 136 kn, slightly fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -364 ft/m, slightly misaligned by 4.8 m from the centerline. The local weather at landing was 4 °C with a 5 kn wind at 120 ° resulting in a 3 kn crosswind and a 4 kn headwind.
The total landing distance was 1,485 m, representing 39% of the runway length, with a very good runway rollout alignment. The taxi to the parking from the runway took 2 minutes covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 377 nm, taking 80 minutes and utilizing 3,554 kg of fuel.
