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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,658 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 716 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 09R at London Heathrow Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,497 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 186 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of London Heathrow, it encountered local weather conditions of 23°C temperature and a wind speed of 4 knots at 15°. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started 1 mile north-west of Feltham, Greater London, England, where the aircraft climbed from 1,139 feet above sea level to 5,672 feet above sea level, an increase of 4,533 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north of New Malden, Greater London, England, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 1 mile east of Detling, Kent, England, where it climbed from 6,011 feet above sea level to 32,959 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,948 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 99 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise continued for a significant period, starting 1 mile west of Pittem, Flanders, Belgium, and lasting for 172 minutes, covering a distance of 1,485 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 8 miles south of Amasya, Turkey, where it climbed from 32,948 feet above sea level to 34,994 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,046 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 33 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise continued, starting 2 miles north-west of Tokat, Turkey, and lasting for 213 minutes, covering a distance of 1,694 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb at a specific location, where it climbed from 34,653 feet above sea level to 36,405 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,752 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise continued for another period, starting at a specific location and lasting for 137 minutes, covering a distance of 1,043 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent 8 miles south of Rayachoti, State of Andhra Pradesh, India, where it descended from 36,955 feet above sea level to 1,341 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,614 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 101 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 25 at Chennai International Airport was made from the east, heading 249.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 25, which had a length of 3,658 meters. The threshold height was slightly above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 143 knots.
The touchdown point was 307 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was a little fast at 137 knots. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -105 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 33°C temperature and a wind speed of 6 knots at 290°, with a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,335 meters, which was 36%
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at VOMM Chennai International Airport, achieving a score of 95.4%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the east, with a heading of 249.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,283 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being slightly above the target at 57 feet agl. However, the threshold speed was satisfactory at 143 knots, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown point was located 307 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance. The touchdown speed of 137 knots was slightly faster than the ideal speed, but the touchdown rate of -105 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 33°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 290°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots, resulting in a net headwind effect. The runway length at VOMM Chennai International Airport is 3,658 meters, providing a sufficient margin for the aircraft to land safely.
The total landing distance of 1,335 meters was 36% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was well under control during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down safely and rolling out in a controlled manner.
