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 2,484 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 452 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving such an impressive aircraft landing score of 99.5%! Let's take a closer look at the detailed analysis of your landing performance.
During the Approach Phase, your glideslope alignment was excellent, indicating a smooth and precise descent towards the runway. This is crucial for setting up a successful landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, you had a good threshold height and executed an excellent landing flare. The landing flare is a critical moment in the landing process where the aircraft transitions from descent to touchdown. Your skill in this phase contributed to the overall smoothness of the landing.
In the Touchdown Phase, while the touchdown rate was described as firm, your speed was just slightly above target. However, you managed to touch down within the touchdown zone, which is commendable. Additionally, the runway touchdown position being only 2.5 meters from the centerline shows good precision in your landing approach.
Lastly, during the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was very good, indicating good control of the aircraft as it slowed down post-landing. This is important for maintaining runway safety and efficiency.
Overall, your performance during each phase of the landing process was impressive, with minor areas for improvement such as speed control during touchdown. Keep up the great work and continue to hone your skills to achieve even higher scores in the future. Well done!
