Are you landing too fast?
Are you landing overweight?

Make sure your descent rate is at or below -500 feet per minute/second
Make sure your landing speed is around 145
Make sure you have the proper flap setting

A319 should be slower than that assuming fuel was properly planned...

When i started to use Fspassengers my landings were always hard,but now i make nice or smooth landings!!!The best thing is
practice!!!!

There are three rules to making a good landing every time......

Unfortunately nobody knows what they are..

It's very simple.

FEEL THE RUNWAY

LOVE THE RUNWAY

BE THE RUNWAY

Do those things, and you'll land great every time. Or, your passengers will think you're crazy. Either way, problem solved

P.S.

If you REALLY want a greaser, add a little bit of humming while you're doing the first 3 rules.

It can't be either, -500 feet per second would be -30,000feet per minute, it is -500 feet per minute, only. What a crash -500fps would be.

we can't teach you. Only you can teach yourself. Just like you can't learn to ride a bike by reading...

I fly a stableized apprpoached keeping the airspeed nailed, even using auto throttle helps, then for the flair, I rotate the nose to aout 5 to
7degrees and hold that untill the tires kiss the pavement.

FEEL THE RUNWAY = than you went way to fast
LOVE THE RUNWAY = when you had an emergency and landed safely
BE THE RUNWAY = you crashed into the ground and died
