See Arrival 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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,709 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 463 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A321 taxied from the parking area to runway 33 at Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport, covering approximately 1 nm in 7 minutes.
The aircraft commenced its departure roll on runway 33, accelerating over a distance of 1,342 m (42 % of the runway) and lifting off at 151 kt. Local weather reported a temperature of 22 °C, wind 4 kt from 320°, with a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind.
Climb began 1 mile south-west of Langenhorn, with the flight ascending from 991 ft asl to 38,006 ft asl, a gain of 37,014 ft achieved in 24 minutes while covering 150 nm.
Level cruise was established 2 miles east of Kibaek, lasting 24 minutes and extending over 169 nm.
Descent commenced 6 miles south-west of Tonstad, descending from 38,013 ft asl to 1,338 ft asl, a loss of 36,674 ft in 25 minutes and traversing 126 nm.
The final approach to runway 17 at Bergen Airport, Flesland was flown from the north on a heading of 170.0°, at 3 nm and 1,173 ft agl.
Touchdown occurred on runway 17, whose length is 2,709 m, with a threshold speed of 138 kt, slightly above target. The aircraft contacted the runway 48 m beyond the touchdown zone at 130 kt, a little fast, and the vertical speed at touchdown was minus 284 fpm; runway alignment was very good. Local weather at the airport recorded a temperature of 14 °C, wind 2 kt from 90°, with a 2 kt cross-wind and no head-wind.
Runway rollout covered a distance of 1,436 m, representing 53 % of the runway, and alignment remained very good throughout the deceleration.
After landing, the Airbus A321 taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 452 nm, required 82 minutes, and consumed 3,750 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A321 completed the final approach to runway 17 at ENBR Bergen Airport, Flesland from the north, maintaining a heading of 170.0° at 3 nm and 1,173 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 138 kt.
Touchdown occurred 48 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 130 kt, described as a little fast, and a fair touchdown rate of minus 284 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 1,436 m, representing 53 % of the 2,709 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good. Local weather was 14 °C with wind 2 kt from 090°, a crosswind component of 2 kt and no headwind.
To tighten performance, reduce the threshold and touchdown speeds toward their targets and aim to achieve touchdown within the designated zone, which will further optimise landing distance and alignment.
