Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 1.9°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,137 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 468 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) took approximately 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The Boeing 737-800 then began its departure roll on runway 22L, utilizing 920 meters, or 57% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 158 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 19°C, with a wind speed of 27 knots from a direction of 220°, resulting in a 27-knot headwind and a negligible crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed away from KMDW, it transitioned into an enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 36,989 feet above sea level in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 158 nautical miles. The climb began at an initial altitude of 1,605 feet above sea level, resulting in an increase of 35,383 feet. Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, lasting 23 minutes and covering 354 nautical miles, before commencing a descent towards its destination. The descent phase, which began 3 miles northeast of Lake Secession, South Carolina, saw the aircraft decrease in altitude from 36,980 feet to 1,336 feet above sea level in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 148 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 19 at Savannah Hilton Head International Airport (KSAV) was conducted from the north, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway. The landing was executed at a threshold speed slightly above the target, at 152 knots, and a touchdown speed of 147 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown point was 55 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was firm at -303 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 1,377 meters, or 64% of the runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering 2 nautical miles in 3 minutes. The total flight distance was 668 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 1 hour and 6 minutes, and a fuel consumption of 4,323 kilograms.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 19 at KSAV Savannah Hilton Head International Airport with a score of 99.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 180.0° at 4 nm and 1,295 ft above ground level. The final approach was characterized by good threshold height, allowing the pilots to maintain a stable and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 152 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown point was 55 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 147 kt. The touchdown rate was firm at -303 fpm, indicating a controlled and stable touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 21 °C and a wind of 8 kt at 210°, contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 kt, while the headwind component was 7 kt, providing a favorable wind condition for the landing.
The total landing distance was 1,377 m, which accounted for 64% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was characterized by good approach quality, controlled touchdown, and stable rollout, resulting in a high score of 99.0%.
