Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 1,397 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,397 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 721 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 88.4% is a commendable achievement, but there are definitely areas that can be improved upon.
Starting with the Approach Phase, it is noted that the glideslope alignment was excellent. This is a critical aspect of the landing process as it ensures a smooth and controlled descent towards the runway. This aspect of the landing was well-executed, showcasing the pilot's skill and precision.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, there were some areas that could be improved upon. The threshold height being slightly above target is a minor issue, but one that can be easily rectified with more practice and focus. However, the very poor landing flare is a more significant concern. The landing flare is crucial for a smooth and safe touchdown, so it is important to work on improving this aspect of the landing technique.
In the Touchdown Phase, there were both positives and negatives. The firm touchdown rate and on-target speed are good signs of control and accuracy. However, using more than 50% of the available runway for the touchdown point is inefficient and can be improved upon. Additionally, the very long touchdown point indicates that adjustments need to be made in order to optimize runway usage.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 3.4m from the centerline is a noticeable deviation. It is important to strive for closer alignment to ensure safety and efficiency during the rollout phase.
Overall, this landing score of 88.4% is a solid achievement, showcasing skill and proficiency in many aspects of the landing process. With some focused practice and attention to the areas that need improvement, there is great potential to further enhance landing performance and strive for even higher scores in the future. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in every phase of the landing process.
