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 13,451 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,577 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
While the overall aircraft landing score of 86.5% is respectable, there are definitely areas that can be improved upon to raise that score even higher. Let's break down the analysis of each phase of the landing and identify key areas for improvement.
First, looking at the Approach Phase, it is noted that there was a poor descent path above the glideslope limit and the speed was slightly below target. To improve in this phase, focus on maintaining a steady descent path and ensuring that the speed of the aircraft aligns with the target speed. By staying within the parameters set for descent and speed, a smoother approach can be achieved.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is highlighted that the threshold height was well above target and there was a very poor landing flare. To enhance performance in this phase, concentrate on achieving the correct threshold height and executing a proper landing flare. By ensuring that the aircraft is at the appropriate height upon reaching the threshold and executing a smooth flare, a more successful landing can be achieved.
In the Touchdown Phase, although the touchdown rate was good and the speed was slightly above target, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point and runway touchdown position. Aim to land within the designated touchdown zone and closer to the centerline of the runway. By focusing on precision during touchdown, a more accurate and efficient landing can be accomplished.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, it is noted that the runway alignment was slightly off from the centerline. To improve in this phase, pay close attention to maintaining proper runway alignment throughout the rollout. By staying aligned with the centerline, a smoother and more controlled rollout can be achieved.
Overall, while there were areas of improvement identified in each phase of the landing, it is important to approach these challenges with a positive mindset and a determination to enhance performance. By focusing on specific areas for improvement and making adjustments as needed, the aircraft landing score can be further improved to reflect a higher level of proficiency and skill. Remember, practice and dedication are key to mastering the art of a successful landing. Keep up the good work and strive for continuous improvement in all aspects of aircraft operations. You're on the right track!
