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.

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 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,392 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,630 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Airbus A320 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Miami International Airport, taking 12 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 08R, with the aircraft lifting off after a takeoff distance of 4,189 feet, which was 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 156 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 79°F and winds of 4 knots at 99°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 3 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of Brownsville, Florida, and lasted for 19 minutes, during which the aircraft climbed from 1,014 feet above sea level to 37,781 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,766 feet. The climb covered a distance of 79 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 4 miles south of Marco Island, Florida. This phase of the flight lasted for 81 minutes and covered a distance of 546 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 29 miles south of Siracusaville, Louisiana, and descending from 38,239 feet above sea level to 12,952 feet above sea level, a decrease of 25,288 feet. This descent took 28 minutes and covered a distance of 151 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 24 miles east of XS77 Seafood Warehouse Park Airport Crystal Beach, Texas. This phase of the flight lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, starting 15 miles east of XS77 Seafood Warehouse Park Airport Crystal Beach, and descending from 12,951 feet above sea level to 7,081 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,870 feet. This descent took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 44 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile east of Highlands, Texas. This phase of the flight lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles east of TX18 Redmond Taylor Army Heliport Dallas, and descending from 6,944 feet above sea level to 1,378 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,566 feet. This descent took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08R at George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport took place from the west, with the aircraft heading 90.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,277 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 08R, which had a length of 9,392 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 128 knots.
The touchdown point was 250 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots, which was good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -89 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 70°F and winds of 3 knots at 140°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 3,058 feet, which was 33% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, taking 8 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 875 nautical miles, and the flight took a total of 172 minutes. The aircraft used 11,421 pounds
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 08R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed smoothly on the runway. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 128 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's speed during the landing.
The touchdown point was 250 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. The touchdown speed of 122 knots was also good, indicating that the aircraft was not over-speeding or under-speeding during the landing. The touchdown rate of -89 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, showing that the aircraft was descending at a controlled rate.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 70°F and a wind speed of 3 knots at 140°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 2 knots, which is relatively minimal and did not pose a significant challenge to the pilot.
The total landing distance of 3,058 feet was 33% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to land and stop within a short distance, demonstrating the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, showing that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with precision and skill, and the aircraft was able to land safely and smoothly on the runway. The pilot's performance and the aircraft's performance were both excellent, resulting in a perfect score of 100.0%.
