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.

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 1,537 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,537 m of the 4,864 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 446 m touchdown sits inside 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 25C at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF), with a takeoff distance of 1,097 meters, which was 28% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 174 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 249 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Frankfurt Airport and ascending from 1,385 feet above sea level to 36,210 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,825 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 70 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Dingolshausen, a town in Bavaria, Germany, and lasted for 55 minutes, covering a distance of 453 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 36,108 feet above sea level to 37,672 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,564 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 3 miles north of Mezohegyes, a town in Bekes County, Hungary, and lasted for 240 minutes, covering a distance of 1,965 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 27 miles northwest of Das Island Airport in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The descent from 38,919 feet above sea level to 1,177 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,742 feet in 23 minutes, covered a distance of 54 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 34R at Hamad International Airport (OTHH) was made from the southeast, heading 338.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,155 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 34R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 449 meters, which was good. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 140 knots, but the touchdown rate was good at -152 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 20 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,462 meters, which was 30% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,563 nautical miles, taking a total of 343 minutes, and the aircraft used 41,477 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Hamad International Airport's runway 34R, achieving a score of 99.9%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 338.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,155 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 surface.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was within the acceptable range at 140 knots. However, the touchdown speed was slightly higher than desired, which may have been due to various factors such as wind conditions or pilot judgment. The touchdown distance of 449 meters was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were hot, with a temperature of 37°C, and a moderate wind blowing at 9 knots from a direction of 20°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilots successfully managed the aircraft's approach and landing, achieving a very good runway touchdown alignment.
The total landing distance of 1,462 meters was 30% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop safely. Overall, the landing was a success, and the pilots demonstrated excellent skills and judgment in managing the aircraft's approach and landing in challenging weather conditions.
