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 1,672 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,672 m of the 3,596 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 484 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 07R at EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,785 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 162 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 1 °C, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 90 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a slight headwind of 1 knot. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead EDDB Berlin Brandenburg Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,159 feet above sea level to 31,056 feet, an increase of 29,897 feet, in 25 minutes and covering a distance of 176 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which lasted for 130 minutes and covered a distance of 983 nautical miles. This cruise phase took place 2 miles west of Swierczow, a town located in the Opole Voivodeship of Poland. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 31,785 feet to 33,160 feet, an increase of 1,375 feet, in just 2 minutes and covering a distance of 18 nautical miles. This climb started 10 miles northwest of Turhal, a town in the Tokat province of Turkey.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 181 minutes and covered a distance of 1,309 nautical miles. This cruise phase took place 5 miles northwest of LTAW Tokat Airport, also located in the Tokat province of Turkey. As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent, which started 7 miles west of Sharjah, a city in the Ash Shariqah emirate of the United Arab Emirates. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 35,763 feet to 1,302 feet, a decrease of 34,461 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 12L at OMDB Dubai International Airport was made from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 121.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 12L, which had a length of 3,596 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 135 knots.
The touchdown point was 68 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was hard, at -416 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.4 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28 °C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 0 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a tailwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,590 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 9.2 meters. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,500 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 352 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 14,188 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed on runway 12L at Dubai International Airport (OMDB) with a score of 93.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, heading 121.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,259 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with good threshold height, and the threshold speed was maintained at 135 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 68 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was reported as hard, at -416 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.4 meters, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal landing position.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 0°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, and the tailwind component was 3 knots. These conditions did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance was 1,590 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 9.2 meters, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal rollout position. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing position, which may be addressed in future training or operations.
