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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate above what the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,609 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 308 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 17 at LATI Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 17, the Boeing 737-600 accelerated over a takeoff distance of 1,247 m, representing 45 % of the runway, and lifted off at 134 kt; ambient temperature was 38 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 250°, a cross-wind component of 5 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.
Climb commenced overhead LATI Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa Rinas, rising from 1,107 ft asl to 39,863 ft asl - an increase of 38,756 ft - in 41 minutes while covering 300 nm.
The first cruise segment began 5 miles west of Vir (Zadar, Croatia) and continued for 90 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 653 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 1 mile east of Montigny-sur-Avre (Centre-Val de Loire, France), descending from 39,793 ft asl to 2,288 ft asl - a loss of 37,504 ft - in 18 minutes and covering 118 nm.
A second cruise phase was initiated 10 miles east of Saint Helier (Jersey) and lasted 3 minutes, during which the aircraft traveled 11 nm at level flight.
The final approach to runway 26 at EGJJ Jersey Airport was executed from the east, on a heading of 258.0° at 4 nm and 1,260 ft agl.
Landing on runway 26 was performed with a threshold speed of 126 kt, touchdown occurring 306 m down the runway at 119 kt and a descent rate of minus 168 fpm; the total landing distance was 682 m, representing 42 % of the runway, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. Local weather at the time was 22 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 340°, a cross-wind component of 5 kt and a head-wind component of 1 kt.
Runway rollout proceeded with perfect alignment.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,089 nm, took 157 minutes, and consumed 6,818 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-600 established a final approach to runway 26 at EGJJ Jersey Airport from the east, maintaining a heading of 258.0° at 4 nm and 1,260 ft agl while the local temperature was 22 °C, wind 5 kt from 340°, providing a 5 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind.
Threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 126 kt.
Touchdown occurred 306 m down the runway; speed at touchdown was a little fast at 119 kt, the vertical rate was good at minus 168 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
Total landing distance measured 682 m, representing 42 % of the 1,609 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
Reduce the approach and touchdown speeds to bring them within the target envelope, focusing on a slightly slower final-approach speed to achieve a lower touchdown speed. This adjustment will tighten the margin without affecting the already excellent alignment and runway usage.
