Slow down before tight turns
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,993 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 719 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Jaipur International Airport took approximately 5 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The Boeing 737-MAX8 then began its departure roll on runway 09, utilizing 57% of the 1,946-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 161 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 43°C, with a gentle wind of 6 knots from a direction of 220°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Jaipur, it began its enroute climb 2 miles east of the airport, ascending from an initial altitude of 2,219 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 37,014 feet, a vertical increase of 34,794 feet in 22 minutes. The climb phase covered a distance of 160 nautical miles. Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 74 minutes and covered 571 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 9 miles northwest of Jammalamadugu, descending from 36,999 feet to 15,582 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 100 nautical miles. The descent phase was followed by a brief level cruise phase, lasting 3 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its final descent 3 miles north of Vadigenhalli. The aircraft landed on runway 09L at Kempegowda International Airport, touching down 308 meters beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 130 knots.
The landing distance of 1,281 meters, which accounted for 32% of the 3,993-meter runway, was slightly above the target. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 15.0 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 890 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 131 minutes and a fuel consumption of 4,874 kilograms. The aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 touched down on runway 09L at VOBL Kempegowda International Airport, with a threshold speed of 139 kt, meeting the target. However, the aircraft was slightly above the target threshold height of 58 ft agl. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 90.0° from 4 nm away, at an altitude of 1,322 ft agl.
The touchdown point was 308 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 130 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -252 fpm was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.6 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issue. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 32 °C and a 7 kt headwind, did not significantly impact the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,281 m was 32% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 15.0 m from the centreline. Overall, the landing performance scored 85.2%, indicating a good but not exceptional landing.
