Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 120 m past the target, landing at 577 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,643 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,643 m of the 4,134 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 577 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 09R at London Heathrow (EGLL) in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 09R, the Boeing 777-300 traveled 1,802 m, representing 54 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 190 kt; local conditions were 33 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 100°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind.
The first climb began 1 mile north-west of Feltham, climbing from 1,063 ft asl to 5,997 ft asl - a gain of 4,933 ft - in 3 minutes while covering 12 nm.
A short cruise segment started 1 mile west of Thornton Heath and lasted 5 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 25 nm.
The second climb commenced 1 mile north-west of Detling, rising from 6,003 ft asl to 30,749 ft asl - an increase of 24,747 ft - over 16 minutes and 112 nm.
A subsequent cruise phase began 1 mile south-west of Machelen-aan-de-Leie, lasting 160 minutes and covering 1,409 nm.
The third climb started 11 miles north of LTCM Sinop Airport, climbing from 30,999 ft asl to 32,995 ft asl - a gain of 1,996 ft - in 3 minutes while traversing 30 nm.
The following cruise segment began 26 miles east of Sinop, continued for 200 minutes and encompassed 1,745 nm.
A fourth climb was initiated 9 miles north-west of Zhob, raising the aircraft from 33,020 ft asl to 34,946 ft asl - an increase of 1,926 ft - in 3 minutes over 27 nm.
The next cruise leg began 18 miles south of Zhob, lasted 214 minutes and covered 1,752 nm.
The fifth climb started 57 miles west of Veer Savarkar International Airport (VOPB), climbing from 34,992 ft asl to 36,983 ft asl - a gain of 1,991 ft - in 3 minutes while flying 25 nm.
A further cruise phase began 53 miles south-west of VOPB, lasted 91 minutes and spanned 699 nm.
Descent began 9 miles west of Kampar, descending from 36,996 ft asl to 1,339 ft asl - a loss of 35,657 ft - in 32 minutes and covering 176 nm.
The final approach to runway 14L at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (WMKK) was conducted from the north-west on a heading of 146.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,280 ft agl.
Landing on runway 14L, which is 4,134 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 145 kt; touchdown occurred 165 m beyond the touchdown zone at 138 kt, with a smooth touchdown rate of minus 122 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather reported 34 °C, wind 2 kt from 0°, a 1 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt tail-wind; the total landing roll measured 1,566 m, representing 38 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment remained perfect throughout the deceleration phase.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 6,020 nm, lasted 741 minutes, and consumed 107,299 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 established its final approach to runway 14L at WMKK Kuala Lumpur International Airport from the north-west, tracking a heading of 146.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,280 ft agl. Local weather was 34 °C with wind 2 kt from 0 °, a crosswind component of 1 kt and a tailwind component of 2 kt.
At the threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and a threshold speed that was good at 145 kt, setting up a stable flare.
Touchdown occurred 165 m beyond the touchdown zone with a touchdown speed of 138 kt that was good and a smooth touchdown rate of minus 122 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 1,566 m, representing 38 % of the 4,134 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
To tighten the landing point, aim to touch down within the designated touchdown zone rather than beyond it, which will increase runway margin and further improve the already high score of 98.7 %. Adjusting flare timing can help achieve a more precise touchdown location.
