Shorten the long landing
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

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 1,667 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 476 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
First of all, congratulations on achieving an aircraft landing score of 84.9%! This is a commendable effort and shows your dedication to improving your landing techniques.
Although your speed was slightly above target, it's great to see that you had a good landing flare during the Landing Phase. This shows that you have good control over the aircraft during the critical moments before touchdown. However, it is important to work on correcting the poor landing heading and bank angle stability during landing to ensure a smoother and more controlled touchdown.
During the Touchdown Phase, it is noted that the touchdown rate was very hard and the speed was above target. This could potentially lead to discomfort for passengers and put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear. Additionally, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position being 14.3m from the centreline indicate a need for improved landing accuracy.
In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 13.5m from the centreline suggests that there may be room for improvement in maintaining the aircraft's position on the runway after touchdown.
Overall, your performance in this landing was commendable, but there are areas that can be improved upon. Focus on maintaining target speeds, improving landing heading and bank angle stability, and ensuring accurate touchdown positioning on the runway. With dedication and practice, you can continue to enhance your landing skills and strive for even better scores in the future. Keep up the good work and never stop aiming for improvement!
