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.

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 1,997 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 491 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 at Tokyo Haneda International Airport, RJTT. This process took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 05, with the aircraft taking off after covering 26 meters, which is 1% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 139 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and winds blowing at 9 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the tailwind component was 5 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles east of the airport and rising from an altitude of 1,006 feet above sea level to 33,867 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,861 feet. This climb took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 61 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired cruising altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 14 miles southwest of Tomioka, Japan. This phase lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 46 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 2 miles southeast of Omachi, Japan. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 37 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 33,864 feet above sea level to 1,404 feet above sea level.
The final approach to runway 20 at Toyama Airport, RJNT, was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 194.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,315 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on runway 20, which has a length of 1,997 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 129 knots. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 125 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -201 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and winds blowing at 9 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,150 meters, which is 58% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 152 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 53 minutes. The aircraft used 1,725 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Airbus A320 successfully landed at RJNT Toyama Airport, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north, heading 194.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,315 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 20, which has a length of 1,997 meters.
The pilot's performance during the final approach was commendable, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 129 knots. This indicates that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach, setting up for a smooth touchdown. The touchdown point was 66 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation from the ideal touchdown location.
However, the touchdown speed of 125 knots was slightly faster than the ideal speed, which may have resulted in a slightly longer landing distance. The touchdown rate of -201 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating that the pilot was able to control the descent and maintain a relatively smooth touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from 280°. This resulted in a crosswind of 9 knots and a headwind of 1 knot, which the pilot was able to manage effectively. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach.
The total landing distance of 1,150 meters was 58% of the runway length, which is a relatively short landing distance. This suggests that the pilot was able to maintain a high level of control and precision during the landing, resulting in a smooth and efficient touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the pilot's performance during the landing was excellent, with a high score of 98.8%. The aircraft was able to land safely and efficiently, with a short landing distance and a smooth touchdown.
