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 3,251 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 314 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, an Airbus A321, then departed from runway 14L at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport. The takeoff distance was 2,173 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 182 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots at 79 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Lohmar in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The climb took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 134 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,315 feet above sea level to 34,429 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,114 feet.
The enroute descent started 1 mile northwest of Hassfurt in Bavaria, Germany, and took 22 minutes to cover a distance of 130 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 34,455 feet above sea level to 7,143 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,313 feet. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting overhead Roztoky in the Stredocesky kraj region of the Czech Republic. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another descent, starting 1 mile west of Srbec in the Stredocesky kraj region of the Czech Republic. This descent took 3 minutes to cover a distance of 4 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 7,161 feet above sea level to 5,021 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,140 feet. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile southeast of Hriskov in the Ustecky kraj region of the Czech Republic. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another descent, starting overhead Risuty in the Stredocesky kraj region of the Czech Republic. This descent took 3 minutes to cover a distance of 7 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 4,627 feet above sea level to 2,452 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,174 feet. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 12 at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague, approaching from the northwest at a heading of 127.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 12 at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague was successful, with a touchdown distance of 316 meters and a touchdown speed of 131 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -313 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots at 60 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,451 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 301 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 71 minutes. The aircraft used 3,739 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully landed at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague, achieving a high score of 98.3%. The final approach to runway 12 was conducted from the north-west, with a heading of 127.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 131 knots, which is within the acceptable range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 316 meters, which is within the expected range. The touchdown speed was also good at 131 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -313 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates a controlled descent and a smooth touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to affect the landing, as the aircraft performed well within the expected parameters.
The total landing distance was 1,451 meters, which is 45% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled and the pilot executed the landing smoothly. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing of the Airbus A321 at LKPR Václav Havel Airport Prague was a success, with the aircraft performing well within the expected parameters. The high score of 98.3% reflects the pilot's skill and expertise in executing a smooth and controlled landing.
