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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,403 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 102 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Thessaloniki Macedonia International Airport (LGTS), the RJ100 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then rolled onto runway 16, where it accelerated to a liftoff speed of 134 knots, covering a takeoff distance of 1,598 meters, which represented 66% of the runway's length.
As the aircraft climbed to 25,000 feet above sea level, it traversed a distance of 84 nautical miles in 15 minutes, achieving an impressive climb rate of 1,557 feet per minute. The enroute level cruise phase started approximately 4 miles southwest of Skopelos, lasting 3 minutes and covering 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 25,003 feet above sea level to 3,201 feet above sea level, a decrease of 21,802 feet in 11 minutes, covering 56 nautical miles. This descent phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started 9 miles south of Ampelakia and lasted 7 minutes, covering 23 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 03R at Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport (LGAV) was initiated from the southwest, with the aircraft descending from 2,833 feet above sea level to 1,624 feet above sea level in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The landing was executed with good threshold height, threshold speed, and touchdown distance, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 110 knots and a rate of -378 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 653 meters, representing 19% of the runway's length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 203 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 51 minutes and a fuel consumption of 1,592 kilograms.
The aircraft, an RJ100, successfully executed a final approach to runway 03R at LGAV Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport from the south west, aligning with the runway at a heading of 37.0° at 4 nm and 1,336 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 114 kt, well within the acceptable range. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, touching down at a speed of 110 kt, which was also within the desired parameters.
The touchdown characteristics were good, with a firm touchdown rate of -378 fpm and a touchdown distance of 103 m, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13 °C and a headwind of 17 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 kt, further enhancing the approach's stability.
The aircraft's rollout was equally impressive, with a very good alignment on the runway centerline. The total landing distance of 653 m, which accounted for only 19% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was scored 97.4%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the crew throughout the approach and landing phases.
