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 1,627 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,627 m of the 4,232 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 384 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 93.1% is impressive and shows that the pilot performed exceptionally well during parts of the approach, landing, and rollout phases.
During the Approach Phase, the pilot demonstrated excellent glideslope alignment and maintained a speed well above target, which indicates a high level of precision and control throughout the descent. This is a crucial aspect of a successful landing, as it sets the stage for a smooth touchdown.
In the Landing Phase, the pilot executed a good threshold height and a very good landing flare, which are key factors in ensuring a safe and stable touchdown. However, the touchdown rate was noted to be hard and the speed was too high, which could potentially lead to excessive wear and tear on the aircraft and pose a safety risk. Additionally, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position being 6.5 m from the centerline could indicate some room for improvement in terms of alignment and precision during the landing.
It is important to address the fact that the aircraft landed with a 3 kn tailwind, which is a hazardous condition that can affect the aircraft's performance and control during landing. Pilots should always strive to land with a headwind or a crosswind component to ensure a safer and more controlled landing.
In the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off, with the aircraft positioned 6.0 m from the centerline. This could potentially lead to difficulties in maintaining directional control and could warrant further attention to improve alignment and precision during rollout.
Overall, while the pilot demonstrated strong skills and proficiency in certain aspects of the landing procedure, there are areas for improvement to ensure a safer and more precise landing in the future. Addressing the issues of excessive speed, hard touchdown, improper alignment, and landing with a tailwind will be crucial in achieving a higher level of performance and safety during landings. With continued practice and focus on these key areas, the pilot can work towards achieving even higher scores and further honing their skills as an aviator. Great job on a commendable landing!
