Improve the 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.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,029 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 129 ft 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 area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 33 at KARR Aurora Municipal Airport, with a takeoff distance of 2,968 feet, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 26 °F and winds of 6 knots at 278°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 4 knots. After departing the airport, the enroute climb began approximately 1 mile northwest of KARR Aurora Municipal Airport, with the aircraft climbing from 1,740 feet above sea level to 29,802 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,063 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 66 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started approximately 1 mile northeast of 3IL8 Evanston Hospital-Golf Course Site Heliport in Evanston, Illinois. This phase lasted for 42 minutes and covered a distance of 346 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started approximately 5 miles southeast of Edmondson, Arkansas. The descent took 19 minutes, during which the aircraft decreased from 29,801 feet above sea level to 1,405 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 95 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 18R at KGLH Mid Delta Regional Airport from the north, heading 180.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,263 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 22 °F and winds of 5 knots at 271°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 0 knots.
The aircraft landed on runway 18R, with a runway length of 7,029 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 112 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 120 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 111 knots. The touchdown rate was very hard at -523 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centreline. The total landing distance was 3,010 feet, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 33 feet from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 514 nautical miles, taking 82 minutes, and the aircraft used 257 pounds of fuel.
Aircraft C750 successfully landed at KGLH Mid Delta Regional Airport on runway 18R, achieving a score of 93.8%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,263 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 112 knots, indicating a controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 111 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate of -523 feet per minute (fpm). A hard touchdown rate can be a concern as it may put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially lead to a bumpy ride for passengers.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 22°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from 271°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was negligible at 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 3,010 feet was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 33 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's rollout path. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach and touchdown parameters.
