Slow down before tight turns
See Arrival Taxi
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.

Side view — the last 1,941 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,941 m of the 2,652 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 480 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-700, then departed from runway 30 at the Edmonton International Airport (CYEG) in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The takeoff distance was 1,443 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 153 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 300°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. The enroute climb started over the Edmonton International Airport and continued for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 147 nautical miles and increasing the aircraft's altitude from 3,430 feet above sea level to 40,843 feet above sea level, a total increase of 37,413 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 13 minutes and covered a distance of 346 nautical miles. This phase began 4 miles south-east of the Neilburg Airport (CJV2) in Neilburg, Saskatchewan, Canada. The aircraft then began its descent, which started 19 miles south-east of the Rocanville Airport (CKH2) in Rocanville, Saskatchewan, Canada. The descent phase lasted for 18 minutes, during which the aircraft's altitude decreased from 41,652 feet above sea level to 2,036 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 39,616 feet. The descent covered a distance of 147 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 13 at the Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) was made from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 139.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,247 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 13, which had a length of 2,652 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 142 knots. The touchdown point was 62 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 136 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was good at -152 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 130°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots. The total landing distance was 1,858 meters, which accounted for 70% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took approximately 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 650 nautical miles and took 61 minutes to complete, using 3,671 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) on runway 13. The final approach was executed from the northwest, aligning with a heading of 139.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,247 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a high level of precision, achieving a score of 99.9% for the landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 142 knots. The touchdown point was located 62 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was a bit faster than desired, and the touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute (fpm) was slightly higher than optimal.
Despite these minor deviations, the runway touchdown alignment was deemed very good, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C, with a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 130°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 13 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly higher touchdown speed.
The total landing distance of 1,858 meters was 70% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect, suggesting that the aircraft was well-controlled during the rollout phase of the landing.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of precision and control. However, there were some minor deviations from the desired landing parameters, which may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's performance.
