Monitor your taxi speed
See Departure 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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,501 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 382 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 24 at Paris-Orly Airport (LFPO). The takeoff distance was 1,074 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 137 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 220 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 14 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead the town of Chilly-Mazarin in the Ile-de-France region of France. The climb took 22 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,309 feet above sea level to 30,897 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead the town of Morlac in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. This phase lasted for 18 minutes and covered a distance of 111 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting overhead the town of Saint-Jean-Lespinasse in the Occitanie region of France. The descent took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 85 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 31,033 feet above sea level to 3,159 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started overhead the town of Deyme in the Occitanie region of France. This phase lasted for just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 32L at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (LFBO) was made from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 323.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 32L was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 99 knots and a distance of 383 meters. The touchdown rate was fair at -248 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots from a direction of 330 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.
The total landing distance was 765 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 6 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 333 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 75 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2,521 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (LFBO) on runway 32L. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 323.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.9%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 99 kt, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 383 meters was also considered good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and precision throughout the landing process. However, the touchdown rate of -248 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to improve their descent rate to achieve a smoother landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 15 kt from 330°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 kt and a headwind of 15 kt, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The runway length of 3,501 meters was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 765 meters, which accounted for only 22% of the runway.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a high level of precision and control throughout the landing process. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had successfully transitioned from the landing phase to the rollout phase without any issues.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate, which could be achieved through more precise control and management of the descent rate.
