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 83.94 %
Landing Summary

Overall, the aircraft landing score of 83.9% indicates a decent performance, but there are definitely areas that can be improved upon.

The Approach Phase stood out positively with excellent glideslope alignment and speed well above target. This shows good control and precision during the approach towards the runway.

However, the Landing Phase revealed some weaknesses. The threshold height was slightly above target, indicating that adjustments can be made to achieve a smoother descent. The poor landing flare suggests a need for better coordination during the final moments before touchdown. Additionally, the lack of bank angle stability during landing could be a concern for safety reasons.

Moving on to the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was fair but could be improved for a smoother landing. The speed being a little above target is something that can be adjusted with more practice and attention to detail. The touchdown point being significantly beyond the touchdown zone highlights the need for better judgment and control during this phase. Similarly, the runway touchdown position being off-center raises concerns about alignment and precision.

Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 17.2 m from the centerline indicates that adjustments are needed to ensure the aircraft stays on course post-landing.

In conclusion, while the overall score is decent, there are clear areas for improvement in various phases of the landing process. With focus, practice, and attention to detail, these weaknesses can be addressed to ensure a smoother and safer landing in the future. Keep up the effort and continuous improvement mindset to achieve better scores and overall performance in aircraft landings.
