Work on the flare
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.

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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,560 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,817 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
While the aircraft landing score of 79.4% may not be perfect, there are areas for improvement to strive for a higher score in the future.
Starting with the Approach Phase, it is evident that the descent path was above the glideslope limit and the speed was slightly below target. These two factors can greatly affect the overall landing quality. To improve in this phase, pilots can focus on maintaining a stable descent path and ensuring that the speed remains consistent with the target speed.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, there were a couple of areas that were identified as needing improvement. The threshold height was significantly above target, and there was a very poor landing flare. To address these issues, pilots should aim to have a more precise approach to the runway threshold height and practice executing a smoother landing flare to achieve a softer touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, while the touchdown rate was fair and the speed was on target, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point and runway touchdown position. Landing beyond the designated touchdown zone and being off-center from the runway can be improved with practice and attention to detail during the landing phase.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off-center, which can be corrected with better alignment techniques and improved coordination during the rollout.
Overall, while the landing score may not have been perfect, there are clear areas for improvement that can lead to a higher score in future landings. By focusing on maintaining a stable descent path, executing a smooth landing flare, improving touchdown precision, and enhancing runway alignment, pilots can strive for a better landing score and ultimately enhance the safety and efficiency of their landings. Keep up the hard work and practice, and you will see improvements in your landing performance.
