Reduce your height at the threshold
Even a modest height error carries straight through to the touchdown. Geometry alone says that crossing the threshold 10 feet high on a 3° path moves your touchdown roughly 190 feet further down the runway before the flare adds anything.

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 2,590 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 313 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, this landing showed some areas of improvement but also some strong points to build upon. While the Approach Phase had issues with descent path and threshold height, the heading alignment and speed were both excellent. In the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was hard but the speed and distance were both very good. It is important to note, however, that the landing was made with a 3 knot tailwind, which can impact the safety and control of the aircraft.
Moving forward, it will be important to focus on improving descent path and threshold height during the Approach Phase, as well as ensuring a smoother landing flare to reduce the impact on touchdown. Additionally, adjusting landing techniques to account for tailwinds will be crucial in maintaining safe and controlled landings.
Despite these areas for improvement, your strong heading alignment, speed control, and runway alignment demonstrate a solid foundation to build upon. Keep practicing and refining your skills, and remember that each landing is a learning opportunity to grow and improve. With dedication and focus, you will continue to progress and achieve even smoother and more precise landings in the future. Well done on this landing, and keep up the great work!
