Shorten the long landing
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.
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 2,725 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,725 m of the 3,673 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 947 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 83.9% shows that there is room for improvement in various phases of the landing process.
Starting with the Approach Phase, it is important to ensure that the descent path stays within the glideslope limit to maintain a safe and efficient descent. Additionally, keeping the speed close to the target will help with a smoother transition into the Landing Phase.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is crucial to work on reducing the threshold height and improving the landing flare technique. These adjustments will help in achieving a more precise and controlled touchdown, ultimately leading to a smoother landing experience for both the passengers and the aircraft.
In the Touchdown Phase, while the touchdown rate was smooth, there are areas for improvement such as maintaining the target speed and ensuring that the touchdown point is within the designated zone. Paying attention to these details will enhance the overall landing performance.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, focusing on maintaining runway alignment will help in safely navigating the aircraft to a stop. Keeping the aircraft centered on the runway will ensure a secure and efficient landing completion.
Overall, with a few adjustments and attention to detail in each phase of the landing process, you have the potential to achieve even better results in future landings. Keep practicing and refining your techniques to enhance your skills and improve your overall landing score. Keep up the good work and continue striving for excellence in your aircraft landings.
