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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,806 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 261 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 95.3% is quite impressive and reflects a high level of skill and precision in various phases of the landing process. Let's break down the analysis of each phase to provide a detailed understanding of your performance.
During the Approach Phase, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. The descent path was below the glideslope limit, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal vertical profile. Additionally, the speed was slightly above the target, which may have impacted the overall control and stability of the aircraft. However, these are relatively minor issues that can easily be addressed with practice and focus on maintaining correct parameters.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, your performance was commendable. The good threshold height suggests that you maintained the correct altitude above the runway, leading to a smooth and stable approach. The great landing flare indicates that you executed the final stage of the landing process effectively, ensuring a gentle touchdown and minimizing any potential impact forces on the aircraft.
In the Touchdown Phase, there were a few areas for improvement. The firm touchdown rate and the speed being above the target suggest that there was some room for refinement in terms of controlling the descent and airspeed during the final moments before touchdown. However, the fact that the touchdown distance was inside the touchdown zone is a positive sign, demonstrating precision in aiming for the designated landing area. Additionally, the runway touchdown position being 2.1 meters from the centerline is a relatively minor deviation that can be easily corrected with practice and attention to alignment.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, your performance was very good, with the runway alignment being on point. This indicates that you maintained control and stability during the rollout phase, ensuring a straight and accurate path along the runway.
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 95.3% is a testament to your strong flying skills and ability to navigate through various phases of the landing process with precision and control. By addressing the areas for improvement highlighted in the analysis, you can further enhance your performance and strive towards even higher scores in future landings. Keep up the great work and continue to hone your skills to achieve excellence in every aspect of your flying endeavors. Well done!
