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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,206 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,085 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
First and foremost, I want to congratulate the pilot on achieving an overall landing score of 87.8%. This is a commendable performance, and I can see the effort and skill put into the landing.
Let's break down the analysis of the different phases of the landing:
Approach Phase: The poor descent path above the glideslope limit is an area that can be improved upon. Ensuring a smooth descent along the glideslope will help in achieving a more precise and controlled approach.
Landing Phase: The threshold height being well above the target is something that can be worked on. Maintaining a consistent and accurate approach to the threshold height will improve the overall landing quality. Additionally, focusing on a better landing flare technique can lead to smoother touchdowns.
Touchdown Phase: Although the touchdown rate was hard, it is great to see that the speed was on target. However, the touchdown point being 674 ft beyond the touchdown zone indicates the need for better judgment and adjustment during the touchdown phase. Additionally, ensuring the runway touchdown position is closer to the centerline will improve overall alignment and control.
Rollout Phase: The runway alignment being 11 ft off the centerline is an area that can be improved upon. Maintaining a straight and centered rollout will enhance the overall landing experience and ensure a safe and efficient exit from the runway.
In conclusion, while the landing score of 87.8% is a good achievement, there are specific areas in each phase of the landing that can be fine-tuned for even better results. I encourage the pilot to continue practicing and focusing on improving these areas to further enhance their landing skills. Keep up the great work and strive for continuous improvement in every aspect of your flying. Great job!
