Improve the 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.
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 3,034 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 623 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was conducted using a FFX P180 aircraft, with a registration number of 03 01. The pre-flight taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 20 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, with a takeoff distance of 559 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 113 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at a direction of 220°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport. The climb took 20 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,029 feet above sea level to 31,992 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead LEAT Alfes Airfield in Lleida, Spain. This phase lasted for 55 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 291 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles southwest of La Hiniesta in Castilla y Leon, Spain. The descent took 16 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 31,103 feet above sea level to 11,983 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 90 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles northwest of Peso da Regua in Portugal. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its next descent, which started 1 mile west of Felgueiras in Portugal. The descent took 9 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 11,708 feet above sea level to 4,124 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 37 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Varzea in Portugal. This phase lasted for 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 1 mile north of Barqueiros in Portugal. The descent took 4 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 3,524 feet above sea level to 1,357 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17 at LPPR Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport was conducted from the north, with a heading of 169.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,161 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point located 198 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 105 knots, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -141 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at a direction of 210°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The total landing distance was 1,064 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway length. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 520 nautical miles, and
The aircraft, identified as FFX P180 03 01, successfully landed at LPPR Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport, achieving a score of 97.5%. The final approach to runway 17 was initiated from the north, with a heading of 169.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,161 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold height and speed, touching down at 121 knots. The touchdown point was located 198 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 105 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -141 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 210°. This resulted in a crosswind component of 7 knots and a headwind component of 8 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained perfect runway touchdown alignment, which is a critical aspect of a safe and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 1,064 meters was 35% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 97.5%.
