What went well

Straight touchdown — 3.16 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.37 G at touchdown — inside band
Rollout held the centreline — 0.80 m off at taxi speed

What held you back

Departure Climb 1 — speed limits at 0 %, −2.67 points
Departure Climb 2 — speed limits at 0 %, −2.67 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, Threshold speed was well above target at 149 kn. at 86 %, −1.19 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

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.

Landing Score 89.78 %
Landing Summary

It is great to see that the Approach Phase of the aircraft landing achieved an excellent glideslope alignment with the threshold speed well above target at 149 knots. This indicates a strong command of the aircraft during the descent towards the runway, ensuring a smooth transition to the next phase of the landing process.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is positive to note that the threshold height was good, suggesting a stable approach towards the runway. However, it is crucial to address the issue of a very poor landing flare during this phase. The landing flare is essential to ensure a smooth and controlled touchdown, therefore, it is important to focus on improving this aspect in future landings.

The Touchdown Phase revealed some areas for improvement, particularly regarding the touchdown rate and speed. A touchdown rate of -570 ft/m indicates a very hard landing, which can put stress on the aircraft and may be uncomfortable for passengers. Additionally, the touchdown speed of 139 knots was fast, further contributing to the hard landing. The touchdown point being 229 meters beyond the touchdown zone and slightly misaligned by 3.4 meters from the centerline also highlights the need for better precision and control during this phase.

Overall, while the aircraft landing score of 89.8% is commendable, there are clear opportunities for enhancement in the landing technique. By addressing the issues identified in the landing flare, touchdown rate, speed, and alignment, future landings can be further improved to ensure a safe and smooth touchdown on the runway. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in all phases of the landing process.
