Slow down before tight turns
See Departure 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 1,976 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,976 m of the 3,191 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 460 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Boeing 777F taxiing from the parking area to the runway at HECA Cairo International Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 05C, with a takeoff distance of 1,182 meters, which was 30% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Cairo, it encountered local weather conditions of 24°C temperature and a 2-knot headwind at 39°. The enroute climb started overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,377 feet above sea level to 34,180 feet, an increase of 32,803 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 94 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 4 miles east of HEAX El Nuzha Airport in Alexandria, Egypt, and lasted for 127 minutes, covering a distance of 973 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 33,974 feet to 35,908 feet, an increase of 1,935 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started again, this time overhead Despotovo in Serbia, and lasted for 86 minutes, covering a distance of 610 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles northwest of Telgte in Germany, and descending from 35,874 feet to 10,316 feet, a decrease of 25,558 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 81 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute level cruise, this time 3 miles southwest of Dronten in the Netherlands, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles. The enroute descent started again, this time 1 mile west of Duivendrecht in the Netherlands, and descending from 9,524 feet to 1,273 feet, a decrease of 8,251 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was from the southwest, heading 58.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,269 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 456 meters, a touchdown speed of 143 knots, and a touchdown rate of -220 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 7°C temperature and a 2-knot wind at 310°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,889 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking area took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,819 nautical miles, taking a total of 273 minutes, and the aircraft used 33,153 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, achieving a high score of 98.8%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the southwest, heading 58.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,269 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe distance from the runway threshold.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 146 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 456 meters was also considered good, indicating that the pilots managed to slow down the aircraft efficiently. However, the touchdown speed of 143 knots was slightly lower than the threshold speed, which may indicate a slight loss of airspeed during the final stages of the approach.
The touchdown rate of -220 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the pilots may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation during the touchdown. This could be attributed to the aircraft's weight, the runway surface, or the pilots' technique. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.3 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the pilots' approach and landing technique.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was zero. The total landing distance of 1,889 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots managed to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and technique. However, the slight misalignment of the touchdown position and the fair touchdown rate suggest that there is room for improvement in the pilots' approach and landing technique.
