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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,288 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 576 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 16L at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (KSEA). The takeoff distance was 1,962 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 190 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a 5-knot wind at 199°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 4 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile northeast of Des Moines, Washington, and reached an altitude of 29,078 feet above sea level (asl) after climbing 27,734 feet in 17 minutes and covering 109 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which began 10 miles northeast of Goldendale, Washington, and lasted 76 minutes, covering 657 nautical miles. This was followed by another climb phase, which started 4 miles west of Moab, Utah, and reached an altitude of 31,186 feet asl after climbing 1,896 feet in 2 minutes and covering 14 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began 5 miles northwest of La Sal, Utah, and lasted 110 minutes, covering 872 nautical miles. This was followed by another climb phase, which started 9 miles north of Cienega de Flores, Mexico, and reached an altitude of 33,078 feet asl after climbing 2,009 feet in 3 minutes and covering 27 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began 3 miles east of Ciudad Benito Juarez, Mexico, and lasted 244 minutes, covering 1,975 nautical miles. This was followed by another climb phase, which started 51 miles west of Salinas, Ecuador, and reached an altitude of 34,328 feet asl after climbing 1,361 feet in 2 minutes and covering 14 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which began 50 miles west of Salinas, Ecuador, and lasted 241 minutes, covering 2,183 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 5 miles southeast of Casilda, Argentina, and descended from 35,184 feet asl to 1,340 feet asl, a decrease of 33,844 feet in 27 minutes and covering 156 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 11 at Minister Pistarini International Airport (SAEZ) was made from the west, heading 102.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 140 knots and a touchdown rate of -121 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions were 3°C temperature and a 2-knot wind at 70°.
The total landing distance was 1,164 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6,016 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 731 minutes. The aircraft used 104,231 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at SAEZ Minister Pistarini International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The final approach to runway 11 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 102.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 145 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. The touchdown point was located 158 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, but this deviation was not significant enough to impact the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -121 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled and stable descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 3°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind component was also 1 knot, which did not significantly impact the aircraft's performance. The runway length of 3,288 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which was 1,164 meters, or 35% of the runway length.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing was characterized by a high degree of precision and control, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. The pilots' performance was exemplary, and the aircraft's systems functioned as intended, resulting in a safe and successful landing.
