Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 5.4 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,760 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,760 m of the 2,744 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 531 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Biarritz-Anglet-Bayonne Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 27, the crew initiated the departure roll, and the aircraft lifted off the ground after a takeoff distance of 1,400 meters, which represented 69% of the available runway length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 147 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 10°C, with a gentle tailwind of 4 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Biarritz, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the city. The crew successfully navigated the aircraft through a significant altitude increase of 32,411 feet in just 15 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 54 minutes and covered a distance of 323 nautical miles. The cruise phase was initiated 1 mile west of Cabanac-et-Villagrains Airport, and the aircraft maintained a steady altitude of 33,571 feet. The enroute descent phase began 20 miles northeast of Gatteville-le-Phare, France, and the aircraft descended from 33,997 feet to 1,698 feet in 38 minutes, covering a distance of 172 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached London Stansted Airport, it began its final approach to runway 04 from the southwest, aligning itself with a heading of 43.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,346 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 144 knots, and the touchdown point was located 103 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was recorded at 138 knots, which was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -257 feet per minute was considered fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 591 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 4,609 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which lasted a total of 2 hours and 4 minutes.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 04 at EGSS London Stansted Airport with a score of 97.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south west, heading 43.0° at 4 nm and 1,346 ft above ground level. The approach quality was good, with a satisfactory threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 144 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing conditions.
The aircraft touched down 103 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 138 kt, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -257 fpm was fair, indicating a moderate deceleration upon touchdown. Notably, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating precise control and coordination from the pilots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 5 °C and wind at 15 kt from 329°, resulted in a crosswind of 14 kt and a headwind of 4 kt.
The total landing distance of 1,668 m was 61% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, showcasing the pilots' ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, with only minor deviations from the ideal landing conditions.
