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 1,603 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,603 m of the 2,119 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 830 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
First and foremost, it's essential to acknowledge the areas in which improvement is needed in order to ensure a safe and smooth landing. While the overall score may not have been as high as desired, it's important to remember that every landing provides an opportunity for growth and learning.
In the Approach Phase, it's evident that there were issues with maintaining the descent path and heading alignment. However, the fact that the speed was slightly below target is a positive aspect to be noted. Focus on sharpening these skills during future landings to ensure a more precise approach.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it's clear that there were several areas that require attention. The excessive threshold height and poor landing flare are areas that can be improved upon with practice and focus. Additionally, ensuring better landing heading and bank angle stability will contribute to a smoother touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, the heavy touchdown rate is a concern, but the fact that speed was on target is a positive point to take note of. Work on finding a balance between speed control and touchdown rate to achieve a more controlled landing. Additionally, paying attention to touchdown point and runway alignment will help in ensuring a more precise touchdown in the future.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, focus on maintaining runway alignment to avoid drifting off course. By practicing maintaining alignment during rollouts, you'll be able to improve this aspect of your landings over time.
Overall, while the landing score may not have been as high as desired, it's important to view this as an opportunity for growth and improvement. By focusing on the specific areas that need attention and practicing consistently, you'll be able to enhance your landing skills and achieve better scores in the future. Keep a positive attitude and remember that every landing is a chance to learn and improve. You've got this!
