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 six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,851 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,851 m of the 2,731 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 839 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Frankfurt Airport, the Boeing 777-200ER began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As it reached the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 25C, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 157 knots. The takeoff distance was 1,180 meters, which accounted for 30% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 18°C, with a gentle wind of 2 knots at 10°.
As the aircraft climbed out of Frankfurt Airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 24,006 feet in 9 minutes and covering a distance of 51 nautical miles. The climb was followed by a level cruise phase, which lasted 7 minutes and covered 48 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time reaching an altitude of 37,938 feet in 9 minutes and covering 67 nautical miles. The subsequent level cruise phase lasted 31 minutes and covered 239 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb and cruise, with a final climb phase reaching an altitude of 39,810 feet in 2 minutes and covering 13 nautical miles. The longest level cruise phase of the flight lasted 532 minutes and covered 2,888 nautical miles.
As the aircraft began its descent into John F. Kennedy International Airport, it started its descent from 40,066 feet, reaching an altitude of 33,582 feet in 5 minutes and covering 34 nautical miles. The subsequent level cruise phase lasted 29 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its final descent, reaching an altitude of 1,515 feet in 21 minutes and covering 104 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 31R was made from the south-east, with a heading of 300.0° and an altitude of 1,498 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots and a touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 1,764 meters, which accounted for 72% of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 9 minutes and covered 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 3,454 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 456 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 42,097 kilograms.
The Boeing 777-200ER touched down on runway 31R at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, characterized by a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft was established on the localizer at 4 nm and 1,498 ft above ground level, heading 300.0° from the south east. The threshold height was good, allowing for a smooth transition to the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 133 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal touchdown conditions.
The touchdown point was located 416 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is a moderate deviation from the ideal touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 120 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -200 fpm was also satisfactory, indicating a controlled and gentle touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 31 °C and a light wind of 3 kt at 0°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,764 m was 72% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 93.4%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown conditions, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance ensured a safe and controlled landing.
