Monitor your taxi speed
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.
Side view — the last 1,542 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,542 m of the 2,914 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 620 m past the threshold — beyond 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 Philadelphia International Airport, taking 7 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 09R, with a takeoff distance of 1,446 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 174 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions of 24°C temperature and winds of 12 knots at 110 degrees. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the headwind was 10 knots. After departing from Philadelphia, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to an altitude of 35,202 feet above sea level. This climb, which covered a distance of 136 nautical miles, took 20 minutes and resulted in an increase of 34,189 feet in altitude.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 380 minutes and covered a distance of 3,146 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 8 miles south east of Westhampton Beach, New York. After the cruise phase, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 5 miles north of Sietamo, Aragon, Spain. The descent took the aircraft down from an altitude of 34,452 feet to 1,376 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,076 feet in 30 minutes, covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24R at Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was made from the north east, with a heading of 246.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft landed on the runway, which had a length of 2,914 meters. The touchdown point was 201 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 131 knots and a touchdown rate of -327 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 16°C temperature and winds of 3 knots at 340 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, while the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,459 meters, which was 50% of the runway length. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 2 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,413 nautical miles, taking 440 minutes, and the aircraft used 60,399 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, achieving a high score of 95.4%. The final approach to runway 24R was conducted from the north east, with a heading of 246.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level.
The aircraft's approach and landing performance were impressive, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 140 knots. The touchdown point was 201 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 131 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -327 feet per minute was firm, suggesting a stable and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 3 knots from 340°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots, making the landing even more challenging and impressive. The runway length of 2,914 meters was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 1,459 meters, which was only 50% of the available runway.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a testament to the aircraft's capabilities and the pilot's skill and experience.
