Flight Score
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 126 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 133 kt against a target of 126 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 126 kt at the threshold.
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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,103 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,103 m of the 3,378 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 690 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-700 taxied from the parking area to runway 19 at UOOO Norilsk-Alykel Airport in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 19, using 848 m of runway (25 % of the available length). Rotation was achieved at 131 kt. Ambient temperature was 1 °C with wind from 180° at 8 kt, including a 5 kt crosswind and a 7 kt headwind.
Climb began overhead UOOO, ascending from 1,536 ft MSL to 40,581 ft MSL, a gain of 39,045 ft achieved in 43 minutes while covering 338 nm.
Level cruise was established at latitude 68.121913 and longitude 102.113474 and continued for 78 minutes, during which 625 nm were flown.
Descent commenced 14 mi northwest of UCEC Berdigestyakh Airport, descending from 40,751 ft MSL to 2,456 ft MSL, a loss of 38,295 ft in 23 minutes and covering 153 nm.
A brief level cruise segment began 5 mi north of Zhatay and lasted 2 minutes, covering 6 nm.
Final approach to runway 23L at UEEE Yakutsk Airport was conducted from 1,353 ft AGL to 51 ft AGL in 110 seconds, and the aircraft was scored on the stabilization gates.
The aircraft touched down on runway 23L, whose length is 3,378 m, with a threshold speed of 133 kt (slightly above target) and a touchdown speed of 120 kt. Touchdown occurred 264 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a vertical speed of minus 266 fpm. Local weather was temperature -5 °C, wind 310° at 1 kt, crosswind 1 kt, headwind 0 kt.
Total landing distance measured 2,015 m, representing 60 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered 1,129 nm, taking 153, and used 6,248 kg of fuel.
