Monitor your taxi speed
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,996 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 139 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 11 at EKRK Copenhagen Roskilde Airport. The aircraft, a PA28 Warrior II, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 64 kt, covering a takeoff distance of 114 m, which was 7% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 12 °C and a wind speed of 8 kt from a direction of 178 °, resulting in a crosswind of 7 kt and a headwind of 4 kt.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the town of Tune in Region Sjaelland, Denmark. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 1,162 ft above sea level to 1,490 ft in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nm. This rapid ascent was followed by a level cruise, which lasted for 23 minutes and covered a distance of 15 nm. During this period, the aircraft flew at a steady altitude, taking advantage of the favorable wind conditions to make good progress.
As the aircraft approached its destination, EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, it began its final approach to runway 22R. The approach was made from the north-east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 221.0 ° and an altitude of 492 ft above ground level. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 231 ft, likely due to a change in the wind conditions or a concern about the approach path.
The aircraft then re-established its approach to runway 22R, and the pilot made a successful landing, touching down at a speed of 49 kt and a distance of 136 m from the threshold. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -122 fpm, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 12 °C and a wind speed of 8 kt from a direction of 178 °, resulting in a crosswind of 5 kt and a headwind of 6 kt.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 6 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nm. The total flight distance was 22 nm, and the flight duration was 33 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 10 kg of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was characterized by a smooth and efficient climb, a steady cruise, and a successful landing, despite the need for a go-around.
The PA28 Warrior II aircraft successfully landed on runway 22R at EKCH Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, achieving a score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 221.0° at 1 nautical mile and 492 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach, ultimately touching down on the runway with a smooth touchdown rate of -122 feet per minute (fpm).
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 58 knots. However, this did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing, as the touchdown distance of 136 meters was considered good. The touchdown speed of 49 knots was also within acceptable limits, indicating a controlled and stable approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 178°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 6 knots, which the aircraft successfully managed. The total landing distance of 399 meters was only 13% of the runway length, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to stop quickly and efficiently.
The runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was considered a success, with the aircraft demonstrating good control, precision, and adherence to standard operating procedures.
