Slow down before tight turns
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,651 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 232 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 18 at LFHN Bellegarde-Vouvray Airfield, where the Beechcraft Baron G58 took off with a takeoff distance of 452 meters, which accounted for 82% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 93 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Bellegarde-sur-Valserine, located in the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region of France. The climb from 2,576 feet above sea level to 4,974 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,398 feet, was achieved in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Corbonod and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The cruise phase was a brief but stable period in the flight.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its enroute descent overhead Serrieres-en-Chautagne. The descent from 5,452 feet above sea level to 1,850 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,602 feet, was achieved in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 18 at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport was made from the north, heading 166.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,077 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 18 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 230 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed of 64 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute was good. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 1,115 meters, which accounted for 68% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 11.7 meters from the centerline. Despite these minor deviations, the landing was considered good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 29 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 12 minutes. The aircraft used 10 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Beechcraft Baron G58 successfully landed at LFLB Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport, achieving a score of 95.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 166.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,077 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, ensuring a good threshold height and a slightly below-target threshold speed of 74 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 230 meters, with a speed of 64 knots and a descent rate of -200 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 11°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the tailwind component was 10 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,115 meters was within 68% of the available runway length of 1,651 meters. Although the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.7 meters from the centerline, the overall performance of the aircraft during the landing was satisfactory. The pilot's ability to maintain control and navigate the aircraft to a safe touchdown, despite the slight misalignment, is a testament to their skill and experience.
