Fly tutorial #1 and then report back.

 

Also, it's a forum requirement to place your name in your posts.  Please do so for future posts.

1. Your speed is too fast?

2. You're landing too far down the runway?

3. You don't use reverse thrust?

4. The runway is too short?

Probably something simple, like too many beers before you fly :smile:

Normally this helps matters, induces clear thinking and good decision making :blink:

 

Sounds like the OP is not capturing the glidescope.

Actually, in all seriousness, what John and Matias say would point to a likely cause, providing it wasn't something obvious like Ralph mentioned.

 

Incorrect afcad data, I think, could cause the problem. I recently experienced a similar issue, somewhere, can't remember, where my landing approach was at an angle to the runway. So there are a number of causes which you could investigate, but I suggest you do so before having any beers :BigGrin:

Excess speed is usually the culprit. You have to actively manage the energy on the approach.

Then the correct speed on short final.. IE: Vref+5 unless real windy, then I usually run Vref+10.

I'm using the HGS most of the time, which makes it a piece of cake as long as you hold the

correct speed. And don't hold off letting it float down the runway for a greaser. Just a slight

pitch up at about 20 feet  or so and fly it onto the runway. The 800 in particular can be a bit

slippery. Maybe the 900 too.. The 700 seems a tad less so, and the non winglet 600 I use

the least slippery of the bunch. It's basically like a 500 with a glass cockpit to me..

The NGX is certainly a lot more slippery than many other of it's contenders.

No airliner is slippery with Flaps 30 and gear down.
