Touched down at -174 ft/m — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 50 ft and 137 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 4.7 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 56 %, −0.46 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 2,251 ft at 75 %, −0.18 points
Enroute Level — Average altitude 34,328 ft asl at 92 %, −0.16 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

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.

Landing Score 96.13 %
Landing Summary

Overall, achieving a landing score of 96.1% is a fantastic accomplishment and reflects a high level of competency in various aspects of the landing process.

Starting with the Approach Phase, the excellent glideslope alignment demonstrates a strong ability to maintain the correct descent path leading up to the runway. This indicates good situational awareness and proficiency in controlling the aircraft's altitude during the approach.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, while the good threshold height is commendable, it is important to note the area of improvement in the landing flare. The landing flare is crucial in ensuring a smooth touchdown and minimizing the impact forces on the landing gear. By improving the landing flare technique, future landings can be even more precise and comfortable for the passengers.

In the Touchdown Phase, the good touchdown rate and on-target speed are indicators of skillful piloting and control of the aircraft during the critical moment of touchdown. However, the fact that the touchdown point was 879 ft beyond the touchdown zone suggests a need for better judgment and timing during the landing phase. Additionally, despite the touchdown point being beyond the designated zone, the runway touchdown position was very good, indicating a successful alignment with the runway centerline.

Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the very good runway alignment showcases strong steering and control during the rollout after touchdown. Maintaining straight and centered alignment with the runway contributes to safe and efficient taxiing and deceleration.

Overall, while achieving a high landing score of 96.1%, there are areas to focus on for continued improvement, particularly in refining the landing flare technique and optimizing touchdown accuracy. By leveraging the strengths demonstrated in each phase of the landing process and making targeted improvements, even higher landing scores can be achieved in the future. Keep up the great work and continue to strive for excellence in all aspects of aircraft operations.
