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 5,004 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,267 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
First off, congratulations on achieving an overall aircraft landing score of 87.6%! That's a fantastic result and shows that you have a strong foundation in your landing techniques.
Let's break down the analysis of each phase of the landing:
Approach Phase: It's great that your speed was slightly above target, as it's always better to be a bit fast than slow during the approach. However, the descent path being below the glideslope limit is something to work on. By ensuring you maintain a stable descent path, you'll have better control over your altitude and speed, leading to a smoother landing.
Landing Phase: While the threshold height was below target and the landing flare was very poor, landing with a good touchdown rate and on-target speed shows that you have the skills to execute a successful touchdown. Focusing on improving your threshold height and landing flare will help you achieve an even smoother touchdown in the future.
Touchdown Phase: Your touchdown rate was excellent and the speed was on target, which are both important factors in a successful landing. Additionally, landing inside the touchdown zone and 7 ft from the centreline is impressive. However, it's important to note the tailwind during landing, as this can affect your control of the aircraft. Be mindful of wind conditions and adjust your approach accordingly.
Rollout Phase: While the runway alignment was slightly off at 14 ft from the centreline, this is a relatively minor issue compared to the other aspects of your landing. Focus on maintaining a straight rollout to ensure a safe and smooth taxi to the gate.
Overall, your landing score of 87.6% is a testament to your skills as a pilot. By addressing the areas of improvement highlighted in each phase of the landing, you'll continue to enhance your landing technique and strive for even higher scores in the future. Keep up the great work and happy flying!
