Improve the 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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,447 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 334 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the aircraft, an Airbus A319, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Split Airport, Croatia. This process took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 05 at Split Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,425 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 148 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it started its enroute climb from an initial altitude of 1,098 feet above sea level (asl) to 38,009 ft asl, an increase of 36,910 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles. The climb began overhead Kastel Stafilic, a location in Split-Dalmatia, Croatia. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Kornic, a location in Primorsko-Goranska Zupanija, Croatia. This cruise phase lasted for 49 minutes and covered a distance of 375 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its enroute descent from an altitude of 38,013 ft asl to 6,005 ft asl, a decrease of 32,007 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles. The descent started 1 mile south east of Seeheim-Jugenheim, a location in Hessen, Germany. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 1 mile west of Burscheid, a location in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. This cruise phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another descent phase, which started overhead Wermelskirchen, a location in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. This descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 6,005 ft asl to 3,510 ft asl, a decrease of 2,495 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 1 mile east of Engelskirchen, a location in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. This cruise phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final descent phase, which started 2 miles east of Overath, a location in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. This descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 2,972 ft asl to 1,596 ft asl, a decrease of 1,375 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 24 at Cologne Bonn Airport, Germany. The approach was made from the north east, with a heading of 244.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,334 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 24, which has a length of 2,447 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 128 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 333 meters, and the touchdown speed was 124 knots, which was also good.
However, the touchdown rate was very hard at -508 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 209°. The crosswind was 6 knots, and the headwind was 9 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,253 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the
The Airbus A319 successfully landed at EDDK Cologne Bonn Airport, achieving a score of 96.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 244.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,334 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was executed with precision, and the aircraft landed safely on runway 24, which has a length of 2,447 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 128 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 333 meters was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
However, the touchdown rate was very hard, at -508 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate that the aircraft was touching down slightly too aggressively. This could be a concern for the aircraft's safety and the comfort of its passengers. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the aircraft's alignment during the landing phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were moderate, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 10 knots at 209°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 9 knots. These conditions may have presented some challenges for the pilot, but they were still within the acceptable range for a safe landing.
The total landing distance of 1,253 meters was 51% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a relatively short distance, which is a good sign of the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and come to a stop safely.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the touchdown rate and the runway touchdown position. However, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were still able to achieve a high score of 96.0%.
