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.
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 2,738 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 557 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Chişinău International Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 26, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 26 °C, with a wind speed of 15 kt at 339 °, resulting in a crosswind of 14 kt and a headwind of 5 kt.
As the aircraft departed, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of the airport and reaching an altitude of 33,976 ft asl in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 117 nm. The climb was a significant portion of the flight, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 32,638 ft. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 83 minutes and covered a distance of 602 nm. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile east of Borgoricco-San Michele delle Badesse-Sant'Eufemia, and continued to descend in several phases, eventually landing on runway 28 at Milan Bergamo Airport / Antonio Locatelli Air Base.
The final approach to runway 28 was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 285.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,260 ft agl. The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 147 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 132 kt, and the touchdown rate was -160 fpm, both of which were within acceptable limits. The total landing distance was 1,177 m, which was 47 % of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 961 nm, and the flight duration was 173 minutes, with the aircraft using 7,303 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 28 at LIME Milan Bergamo Airport / Antonio Locatelli Air Base with a good threshold height, allowing for a smooth transition from the approach to the touchdown phase. The threshold speed of 141 kt was well within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed approach. The aircraft's touchdown speed of 132 kt was also good, and the touchdown rate of -160 fpm was within the desired parameters.
The touchdown point was located 147 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.9 m from the centreline, which was a minor deviation from the desired alignment. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a gentle tailwind of 6 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,177 m was 47% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.3 m from the centreline, indicating a minor deviation from the desired path. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 95.0%.
