Slow down before tight turns
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 1,690 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,690 m of the 3,594 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 486 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 27 at Liverpool John Lennon Airport (EGGP). The takeoff distance was 1,280 meters, which accounted for 58% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 14 knots coming from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 14 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of the airport and rising from an altitude of 1,136 feet above sea level to 33,730 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,593 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.
The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started overhead Byers Green in County Durham, England, and lasted for 57 minutes, covering a distance of 422 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 7 miles southwest of Tveitsund in Norway, and descending from 32,894 feet above sea level to 8,321 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,573 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.
The enroute descent was followed by another level cruise, which started 8 miles northeast of Hallingby in Norway and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 32 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 4 miles north of Skreia in Norway, and descending from 7,896 feet above sea level to 1,956 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,941 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19R at Oslo Airport, Gardermoen (ENGM) was made from the north, heading 196.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,276 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 19R, which had a length of 3,594 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 140 knots. The touchdown point was 67 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 135 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -238 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots coming from a direction of 180 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The total landing distance was 1,606 meters, which accounted for 45% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 706 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 119 minutes. The aircraft used 4,737 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at ENGM Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, with a score of 96.8%. The final approach to runway 19R was initiated from the north, heading 196.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a slightly above-target threshold height of 57 feet agl, but a good threshold speed of 140 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 67 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 135 knots, which was slightly faster than the desired speed. The touchdown rate of -238 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, indicating a slight deviation from the intended path.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -2°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots from 180°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's stable approach and landing.
The total landing distance of 1,606 meters was 45% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, maintaining a stable alignment with the runway centerline.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a high score of 96.8%. However, there were some minor deviations from the desired approach and landing parameters, including a slightly above-target threshold height and a touchdown speed that was a little fast.
