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.

Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,993 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 422 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Paphos International Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 29, it was cleared for departure, and with a takeoff distance of 1,798 meters, which was 67% of the runway, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 149 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 22°C, with a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 160°, resulting in a crosswind of 10 knots and a tailwind of 8 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Paphos, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile southwest of Koloni, Cyprus. The climb phase saw the aircraft ascend from an initial altitude of 975 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 33,593 feet, an increase of 32,619 feet in just 19 minutes, covering a distance of 110 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 158 minutes and covered a distance of 1,156 nautical miles. The cruise phase was followed by a descent phase, which started 3 miles south of Straz pod Ralskem, Czech Republic, and saw the aircraft descend from 34,004 feet to 9,993 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24R at Berlin Brandenburg Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft descending from 10,013 feet to 1,454 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 45 nautical miles. The landing was executed with a touchdown distance of 424 meters, which was within the acceptable limits, and a touchdown speed of 144 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The total landing distance was 1,408 meters, which was 47% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,435 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 8,955 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which lasted for 224 minutes.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 24R at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport with a score of 99.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 249.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,289 feet above ground level. The final approach was characterized by good quality, with a smooth descent and a stable flight path. The threshold height was well-managed, and the aircraft touched down at a slightly above-target threshold speed of 148 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was a little fast at 144 knots, but the touchdown rate of -184 feet per minute was good. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The touchdown distance of 424 meters was also good, indicating a well-executed landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind of 6 knots at 180°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind of 6 knots and headwind of 2 knots were well-managed by the pilots.
The total landing distance of 1,408 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway centerline throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed well, with the pilots demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
