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 1,526 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,526 m of the 1,874 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 703 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Congratulations on achieving a landing score of 93.3%! Overall, your approach was strong with good control over the landing phases.
In the Approach Phase, while your descent path was slightly above the glideslope limit, it's important to make adjustments to ensure a smoother descent in the future. Additionally, being slightly above the target speed is not a major issue, but do aim to be more precise in maintaining the recommended speed for a smoother landing.
During the Landing Phase, your threshold height and landing flare were executed well, indicating good control and coordination. Your touchdown rate and speed were on point, showcasing your piloting skills. The touchdown point slightly beyond the designated zone can be improved upon with more practice and focus.
Despite the 14 knot crosswind during touchdown, you managed to handle it effectively, which is commendable. Well done on landing smoothly under challenging conditions.
In the Rollout Phase, the slight misalignment from the centerline is a minor issue that can be corrected with more practice on runway alignment. Overall, your performance was strong and demonstrates your competence as a pilot.
Keep up the good work and continue to refine your skills to achieve even higher scores in future landings. Your dedication and attention to detail will surely lead to further improvement in your flying abilities. Keep striving for excellence, and you will continue to excel in your aviation endeavors. Well done!
