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.

Side view — the last 500 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 500 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 229 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Oban Airport (EGEO), the Sirius aircraft rolled down runway 19, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 60 kt in just 80 m, which is 9% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component. As the aircraft lifted off, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 956 ft above sea level to 2,432 ft in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The climb phase was followed by a series of enroute level cruises and descents, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude of 2,400 ft asl for 12 minutes while covering 22 nm. The descent from 2,400 ft to 1,838 ft asl was completed in 2 minutes, covering 3 nm. The aircraft then began its final descent, descending from 1,930 ft asl to 1,251 ft asl in 2 minutes, covering 3 nm. The subsequent level cruise lasted for 2 minutes, covering 3 nm, before the aircraft began its final descent to 66 ft asl. The Sirius aircraft then lined up for a final approach to runway 28 at Colonsay Airstrip (EGEY), touching down at a speed of 43 kt and a distance of 227 m, which is well within the acceptable range.
The landing was characterized by a perfect runway touchdown alignment and an excellent touchdown rate of -56 fpm. The total landing distance was 318 m, which is 64% of the runway's length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 38 nm, and the aircraft used 0 kg of fuel, indicating an extremely efficient flight. The entire flight took 25 minutes to complete, showcasing the Sirius aircraft's impressive performance capabilities.
The final approach to runway 28 at EGEY Colonsay Airstrip from the east, heading 275.0°, was executed with precision. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 27 feet above ground level (agl) at 0 nautical miles from the threshold, maintaining a stable and controlled flight path. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was slightly below the target of 55 kt, coming in at 52 kt.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, it demonstrated good touchdown characteristics. The touchdown speed of 43 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -56 feet per minute (fpm) was exceptional, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable flight environment.
The rollout phase was equally impressive, with the aircraft maintaining perfect centerline alignment as it decelerated. The total landing distance of 318 meters, which accounted for 64% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was scored 97.8%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
