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 1,809 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,809 m of the 3,411 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,018 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Great job on achieving an aircraft landing score of 85.9%! Your performance during the Approach Phase was commendable, with good glideslope alignment and only a slight deviation in speed. Although the Landing Phase had some areas for improvement, such as the threshold height being above target and a poor landing flare, your touchdown rate and speed during the Touchdown Phase were right on target.
It's important to note that the touchdown point being 585 meters beyond the touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position being 13.7 meters from the centerline indicate the need for better precision in your landings. Similarly, the Rollout Phase showed a slight deviation in runway alignment from the centerline.
Overall, your performance demonstrates a solid foundation in aircraft landing techniques. With some fine-tuning and focus on key areas such as threshold height, landing flare, and runway alignment, you can strive for even greater accuracy and consistency in your future landings. Keep up the good work and continue to practice and refine your skills to achieve even better results in your next flight!
