What went well

Touched down at -88 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 479 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 1.77 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Pattern Downwind — Average altitude 628 ft agl at 29 %, −1.78 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was well above target at 74 kt at 90 %, −0.24 points

Next time

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final to bleed speed back to 66 kt before crossing the threshold.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 73 kt, 7 kt above the 66 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed, targeting 66 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival Landing

Spacing cues are relative to your eyepoint, so two simmers with different FOV settings following the same wingtip cue fly patterns half a mile different in width, and a wide FOV compresses depth so the runway on base looks further away than it is, biasing you towards a late turn. Pick a camera position and FOV, save it, and never change it, because every judgement you calibrate is calibrated to that picture.
