Monitor your taxi speed
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 six checks at 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 1,763 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 246 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, a Cockspur PH100, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KTRM Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport. This process took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 30, and the aircraft lifted off after a takeoff distance of 522 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 112 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, with a wind speed of 16 knots at a direction of 15°. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Thermal, California. The climb took place from an altitude of 707 feet above sea level to 31,322 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,614 feet, in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 17 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 3 miles northwest of Thousand Palms, California. This phase of the flight lasted 9 minutes and covered a distance of 62 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile east of Los Serranos, California. The descent took place from an altitude of 31,453 feet above sea level to 4,026 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,427 feet, in 13 minutes and covering a distance of 48 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 2 miles northeast of Chatsworth, California. This phase of the flight lasted only 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting overhead Northridge, California. The descent took place from an altitude of 3,996 feet above sea level to 1,962 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,033 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport took place from the west, with the aircraft heading 90.0° at an altitude of 1,234 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing took place on runway 08, which had a length of 1,763 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 92 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 244 meters, and the touchdown speed was 83 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was good at -186 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 10°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 552 meters, which was 31% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 145 nautical miles, and the flight took 50 minutes. The aircraft used 283 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The aircraft Cockspur PH100 successfully landed on runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport, achieving a high score of 97.5%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,234 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated excellent control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway and was at the correct altitude for touchdown. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 92 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to slow down prior to touchdown. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 244 meters was good, and the touchdown speed of 83 knots was also within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of -186 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down rapidly and smoothly after touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's excellent control and precision during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13°C and a light wind of 2 knots at 10°, were favorable for the landing.
The total landing distance of 552 meters was 31% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot was able to slow down the aircraft quickly and efficiently after touchdown, and that the aircraft's brakes were functioning properly. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop.
Overall, the landing of the Cockspur PH100 on runway 08 at KBUR Hollywood Burbank Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating excellent control and precision during the approach and landing phases. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth and safe execution of the landing, and the aircraft's performance was impressive given the favorable weather conditions.
