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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,834 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 354 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving a landing score of 97.3%! Your performance during each phase of the landing was commendable and clearly demonstrates your skill and expertise as a pilot.
During the Approach Phase, your excellent glideslope alignment shows your precision in guiding the aircraft towards the runway. This is essential for a safe and smooth landing. Additionally, maintaining proper alignment during this phase sets the foundation for a successful touchdown.
In the Landing Phase, your good threshold height and very good landing flare indicate your ability to control the aircraft's descent and flare just before touchdown. This is crucial for ensuring a smooth and controlled landing without any jolts or hard impacts on the runway.
The Touchdown Phase further highlights your proficiency as a pilot. Although the touchdown rate was slightly hard, your on-target speed and touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone demonstrate your accuracy in executing the landing. The runway touchdown position being very good reflects your ability to land the aircraft in the desired location on the runway.
However, it is important to note the warning about landing with a 7 knot tailwind. Although this may have impacted the landing slightly, your overall performance was still exceptional.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, your very good runway alignment showcases your ability to maintain control of the aircraft even after touchdown. This is important for ensuring a smooth and safe rollout on the runway.
Overall, your landing score of 97.3% is a testament to your proficiency and expertise as a pilot. Keep up the excellent work and continue to strive for perfection in your future landings. Your dedication to precision and safety is truly commendable. Well done!
