Monitor your speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 1,734 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,734 m of the 3,984 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 450 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 09R at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG) in France. The takeoff distance was 1,209 meters, which accounted for 34% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 179 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 49 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was also 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead Mauregard, a town in the Ile-de-France region of France, and continued to an altitude of 21,904 feet above sea level. This climb, which covered a distance of 39 nautical miles, took 7 minutes and involved an increase of 20,521 feet in altitude.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile east of Barzy-sur-Marne, a town in the Hauts-de-France region of France. This cruise phase lasted for 22 minutes and covered a distance of 158 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Simmertal, a town in the Rheinland-Pfalz region of Germany. The descent, which covered a distance of 48 nautical miles, took 18 minutes and involved a decrease of 20,921 feet in altitude.
The final approach to runway 25L at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 250.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,298 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 25L, which had a length of 3,984 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 144 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 449 meters, and the touchdown speed was 140 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -277 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 359 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,651 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The total flight distance was 254 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 72 minutes. The aircraft used 8,081 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) on runway 25L, achieving a high score of 99.2%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 250.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,298 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe altitude above the runway threshold.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 144 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 449 meters was also considered good, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was also within the acceptable range, further emphasizing the pilots' skill and control during the landing.
However, the touchdown rate of -277 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilots could have maintained a more gradual descent rate. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 359°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind component. These conditions contributed to a smooth and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 1,651 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilots demonstrating good control and skill during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The high score of 99.2% reflects the pilots' expertise and the aircraft's performance under the given conditions.
