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 3,620 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 668 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Cessna C172 from MMPB Aeropuerto Internacional Hermanos Serdán started with a 3-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway, covering less than 1 nm. The average speed during this taxi was 0 kn. The departure roll on runway 17 took 1,546 m, which was 43% of the total runway length. The liftoff speed was 66 kn, with a local temperature of 16°C and a 1 kn wind at 270°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kn and a headwind of 0 kn.
During the departure climb to 50 ft agl from the runway, the aircraft then climbed to 400 ft agl. The enroute level cruise began 1 mile south of the airport and lasted 4 minutes, covering 3 nm.
The landing on runway 17 involved a threshold height at 121 ft agl, which was higher than target, and a threshold speed of 85 kn. The touchdown point was 295 m beyond the designated zone, with a touchdown speed of 74 kn and a rate of -264 ft/m. The total landing distance was 1,142 m, which was 32% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After exiting the runway, the taxi back to the parking area took 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 6 nm with a flight time of 10 minutes, using 2 kg of fuel.
