Landing Score 82.81 %

Landing Summary

Firstly, congratulations on achieving an aircraft landing score of 82.8%! This is a great accomplishment and shows that there are many positive aspects to your landing technique.

In terms of the Approach Phase, it seems that there were some areas for improvement. The poor descent path above the glideslope limit and slightly below target speed may have contributed to the threshold height being excessively over target and a very poor landing flare during the Landing Phase.

However, it is important to note that the Touchdown Phase had some strong points, such as an excellent touchdown rate and being on target with speed. Landing 266 m beyond the touchdown zone is not ideal, but it shows that you have the ability to set the aircraft down safely. Additionally, the runway touchdown position being 4.6 m from the centreline might require some attention to improve alignment in the future.

Finally, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment being 4.3 m from the centreline is another area to focus on for improvement. Overall, there are definite strengths in your landing technique that should be celebrated, but there are also areas that can be addressed to further improve your score in future landings. Keep up the hard work and dedication to refining your skills, and you will continue to see progress in your aircraft landings. Great job on the 82.8% score!
