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 5,217 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,217 ft of the 9,837 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 840 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at RJFU Nagasaki Airport, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 32, with a takeoff distance of 2,005 feet, which accounted for 20% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 96 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 73°F and winds of 15 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was 15 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead RJFU Nagasaki Airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,001 feet above sea level to 30,710 feet above sea level, an increase of 29,709 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 47 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 5 miles north of Kikuchi, Japan, and lasted for 63 minutes, covering a distance of 401 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 13 miles west of Shimoda, Japan, and descending from 30,523 feet above sea level to 13,325 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,198 feet in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 56 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued to alternate between level cruise and descent phases, with each phase lasting for varying periods of time and covering different distances. The final descent phase started 1 mile south east of Wako, Japan, and descended from 4,047 feet above sea level to 1,383 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,664 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 16L at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport was made from the north west, with the aircraft heading 150.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,345 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 16L, which had a length of 9,837 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 79 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 834 feet, and the touchdown speed was 64 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was good at -198 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 72°F and winds of 15 knots at 179°, with a crosswind component of 8 knots and a headwind component of 13 knots.
The total landing distance was 4,869 feet, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 48 feet from the centreline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 621 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 139 minutes. The aircraft used 978 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Vision Jet has successfully landed at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport, achieving a score of 92.1%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northwest, heading 150.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,345 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 16L, which has a length of 9,837 feet.
The threshold height was well-maintained, and the threshold speed was above the target at 79 knots. This indicates that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 834 feet, and the touchdown speed was within the acceptable range at 64 knots. Furthermore, the touchdown rate was good, with a negative descent rate of 198 feet per minute (fpm).
However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight miscalculation of the aircraft's position or a minor drift during the approach. Additionally, the local weather conditions, with a temperature of 72°F and a wind speed of 15 knots at 179°, may have contributed to the slight misalignment.
The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 13 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's alignment during the rollout. Despite this, the total landing distance was 4,869 feet, which is 49% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 48 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown position misalignment.
Overall, the Vision Jet's landing performance was impressive, with a high score of 92.1%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing performance, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's capabilities ensured a safe and successful landing at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport.
