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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,694 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 442 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 Brussels South Charleroi Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 24, with a takeoff distance of 960 meters, which was 46% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 156 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 5°C temperature and a wind speed of 5 knots at 190 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Jumet, Belgium, where the aircraft ascended from 1,608 feet above sea level to 28,108 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,500 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 67 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 1 mile south of Villequier-Aumont, France, and lasted for 23 minutes, covering a distance of 151 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent overhead Saint-Paul-le-Gaultier, France, where it descended from 28,198 feet above sea level to 3,260 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,938 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 1 mile south of Machecoul, France, and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 03 at Nantes Atlantique Airport took place from the southwest, heading 27.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,256 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 03 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 444 meters, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown rate was smooth at -107 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 8°C temperature and a wind speed of 8 knots at 60 degrees, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,394 meters, which was 52% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 347 nautical miles, taking 71 minutes, and the aircraft used 3,194 kilograms of fuel.
The Airbus A321 successfully landed at LFRS Nantes Atlantique Airport, achieving a high score of 99.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 27.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft touched down on runway 03, which has a length of 2,694 meters.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 140 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 444 meters was within acceptable limits, indicating a good landing performance. The touchdown speed of 135 knots was a bit faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -107 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, suggesting a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.6 meters, which may require some adjustments in the landing technique. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 1,394 meters was 52% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, and the pilot maintained control throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
