Improve the rollout
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,504 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,060 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.

The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777-300 aircraft. The pre-flight preparations began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway, which took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 08R at Miami International Airport (KMIA), with a takeoff distance of 6,381 feet, which was 61% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 181 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 78°F temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 100°. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Allapattah, Florida, and the aircraft climbed from 1,013 feet above sea level to 31,220 feet, an increase of 30,207 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 129 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 11 miles northwest of Walkers Cay Airport in the Bahamas and lasted for 60 minutes, covering a distance of 487 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 31,495 feet to 32,651 feet, an increase of 1,156 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. This was followed by another level cruise, which started at a latitude of 33.2823537 and a longitude of -71.6575066, and lasted for 164 minutes, covering a distance of 1,485 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued to climb and cruise, with several changes in altitude and location. It climbed from 32,834 feet to 34,850 feet, an increase of 2,015 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles. It then began another level cruise, which started at a latitude of 47.3757457 and a longitude of -43.7138372, and lasted for 199 minutes, covering a distance of 1,764 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 24 miles southwest of Myrina, Greece. The descent from 37,234 feet to 27,835 feet, a decrease of 9,399 feet in 10 minutes, covered a distance of 85 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another level cruise, which started 8 miles northeast of Karystos, Greece, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The aircraft continued to descend, starting 1 mile east of Spata, Greece, and descending from 27,582 feet to 24,780 feet, a decrease of 2,802 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 32 nautical miles. It then began another level cruise, which started 8 miles east of Korfos, Greece, and lasted for 10 minutes, covering a distance of 58 nautical miles.
The final descent started 4 miles east of Karystos, Greece, and the aircraft descended from 24,499 feet to 7,062 feet, a decrease of 17,437 feet in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another level cruise, which started 5 miles north of Karystos, Greece, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final descent started 7 miles northeast of Karystos, Greece, and the aircraft descended from 6,990 feet to 2,989 feet, a decrease of 4,001 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another level cruise, which started 5 miles northwest of Marmarion, Greece, and lasted for
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Athens Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport, with a final approach score of 89.9%. The aircraft was approaching runway 21R from the north east, heading 217.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level.
The landing was executed with good threshold height and threshold speed, reaching 140 knots as it touched down on the runway. The touchdown point was 705 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 137 knots, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -277 feet per minute, indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 63°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 100°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the tailwind component was even weaker at 1 knot. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing.
Despite the good landing performance, there were some minor issues with the aircraft's alignment on the runway. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 31 feet from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 55 feet from the centerline. These deviations may require attention from the pilots to ensure that the aircraft is properly aligned with the runway during future landings.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop within 45% of the runway length, covering a total distance of 4,737 feet. While there were some minor issues with alignment, the landing performance was generally good, and the pilots can be commended for their skill and attention to detail.
