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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,373 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
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 88.4% is a commendable achievement, but there are still areas for improvement that were identified in the detailed analysis of the different phases of the landing.
In the Approach Phase, it is encouraging to see that the glideslope alignment was good. However, there is room for improvement in maintaining the speed closer to the target. Focusing on speed control during the approach will help in achieving a smoother landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is noted that the threshold height was above target and the landing flare was very poor. Improving the descent rate and flare technique will greatly contribute to a smoother touchdown and reduce the stress on the landing gear upon touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, the hard touchdown rate indicates the need for a softer approach to landing. While the speed was on target, the touchdown point being 266 meters beyond the touchdown zone could be optimized for better efficiency. Nonetheless, it is encouraging to see that the runway touchdown position was very good.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was noted to be very good. This is a positive aspect of the landing that should be maintained in future landings.
Overall, this detailed analysis provides valuable insights for improvement in specific aspects of the landing process. By focusing on speed control, descent rate, flare technique, and touchdown point accuracy, the overall landing performance can be enhanced. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in all phases of the landing process. Your dedication to improvement is commendable, and with continued practice and attention to detail, you will no doubt see a further increase in your landing score.
