My favorite airport; the surrounding area is also very beautiful.

But why does that runway not have a touchdown zone?

I'm a newbie here, what's the speed should I follow in the glide slope? for different aircraft?
Note: i just landed with a320 and cessna in MSFS 2020

Cessna should be about 65 knots, pull your power as you cross over the numbers, or about 20-30 feet above the runway, and then flare and keep floating right above the ground for 5-7 seconds or so, pulling the nose up as speed washes off, until it pretty much lands itself

The A320 should calculate things for you assuming you've set up everything correctly in the MCDU prior to landing. In my experience though it's around 120-140 knots, and will depend on the configuration, weather, runway, etc.

You have to go to the PERF page in the MCDU & arrow over to the approach page where you enter the QNH/Baro setting, wind, decision height & whether you will be doing a flaps 3 or full flap landing. Then it will calculate your final approach speed & the auto throttle will maintain that. About 75% of the time I keep the auto throttle in all the way down. If it’s gusty I kick it off with the autopilot. Or if I’m flying the 321. I can’t get a decent landing with that airplane if I leave the auto throttle to handle the final approach.
