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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,970 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 364 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Embraer E175, taxiing from its parking spot to the runway at San Diego International Airport (KSAN). This process took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 27, with a takeoff distance of 1,308 meters, which was 62% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 150 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots at 350 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots. After departing from KSAN, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 84 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,029 feet above sea level to 34,448 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,419 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started overhead Rolling Hills Estates, California. This phase of the flight lasted 22 minutes and covered a distance of 512 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 11 miles south of Rome State Airport (KREO) in Oregon. The descent took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 99 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 34,358 feet above sea level to 3,779 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,580 feet.
The final approach to runway 10R at Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field (KBOI) was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 112.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 944 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 10R, which had a length of 2,970 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 132 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 366 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 127 knots. The touchdown rate was smooth at -139 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at KBOI were a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius. The total landing distance was 1,424 meters, which was 48% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft taxiied to its parking spot, which took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 702 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 61 minutes. The aircraft used 2,414 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Embraer E175 aircraft successfully landed at KBOI Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field, achieving a high score of 98.6%. The final approach to runway 10R was conducted from the west, with the aircraft heading 112.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 944 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 132 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 366 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 127 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -139 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, suggesting a well-executed landing.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.9 meters, which may require some adjustments in the aircraft's approach path to improve alignment. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 17°C.
The total landing distance of 1,424 meters was 48% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop.
Overall, the Embraer E175's landing at KBOI Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field was a successful one, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
