Flight Score
Arrival
Hold a little more back pressure through the last of the flare to arrest the sink before 310 fpm develops.
What happened: Touchdown sink rate was 310 fpm, a firm arrival with no other fault on this landing to account for it.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: minimal sink at touchdown
There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,412 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 385 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A220-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 08R at CYVR Vancouver International Airport in 4 minutes, covering 1 nm.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 08R, using a takeoff distance of 952 m (27 % of the runway). Rotation was achieved at 143 kt. Ambient temperature was 10 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 090°, providing a 2 kt headwind and no cross-wind component.
Climb began overhead CAM9 Vancouver International Seaplane Base, rising from 1,033 ft asl to 36,857 ft asl - an increase of 35,824 ft - in 43 minutes while covering 313 nm.
Level cruise was established 12 mi west of Sparwood, British Columbia, and persisted for 37 minutes, during which 296 nm were flown.
Descent started 6 mi east of CYYN Swift Current Airport, descending from 37,004 ft asl to 3,189 ft asl - a loss of 33,815 ft - in 19 minutes and covering 110 nm.
Final approach to runway 13 at CYQR Regina International Airport reduced altitude from 1,339 ft agl to 99 ft agl in 110 seconds, and the aircraft scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 13 was performed with a threshold speed of 138 kt, a touchdown distance of 385 m, and a touchdown speed of 133 kt. The aircraft touched down with a firm rate of minus 310 fpm and maintained very good runway alignment. Local conditions were -3 °C with a wind of 11 kt from 160°, including a 4 kt cross-wind and an 11 kt head-wind. Total landing distance recorded was 1,214 m, representing 50 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was noted as very good, completing the landing phase without deviation.
The A220-300 taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 726nm, lasted 110 minutes, and consumed 3,782 kg of fuel.
