Slow down before tight turns
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.

Side view — the last 1,600 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,600 m of the 4,001 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 461 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777-300 aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 09L at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport, with the aircraft taking off after covering 73% of the runway's length. The takeoff distance was 2,658 meters, and the liftoff speed was 188 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 13°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 310°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 5 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile northwest of Forest Park, Georgia, and the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 2,011 feet above sea level to 29,620 feet, an increase of 27,609 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 77 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south of Varnell, Georgia, and lasted for 476 minutes, covering a distance of 3,415 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 29,078 feet to 34,913 feet, an increase of 5,835 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nautical miles. This climb phase took place approximately 32 miles northwest of Cape Sarichef Airport in Alaska.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 47 miles northwest of Akutan, Alaska, and lasted for 182 minutes, covering a distance of 1,282 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 33,210 feet to 35,065 feet, an increase of 1,855 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. This climb phase took place at a specific latitude and longitude.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started at a specific latitude and longitude and lasted for 395 minutes, covering a distance of 1,410 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent phase, which started 16 miles southwest of Shingu, Japan, and the aircraft descended from 37,606 feet to 28,137 feet, a decrease of 9,469 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 18 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 12 miles southeast of Nanki Shirahama Airport in Japan and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent phase, which started 10 miles south of Nanki Shirahama Airport and the aircraft descended from 27,426 feet to 10,108 feet, a decrease of 17,318 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 42 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 6 miles southwest of Anan, Japan, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent phase, which started 9 miles east of Takamatsu Airport in Japan and the aircraft descended from 9,639 feet to 8,279 feet, a decrease of 1,360 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 9 miles northwest of Ishii, Japan, and lasted for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 31 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent phase, which started 4 miles north of Sumoto, Japan, and the aircraft descended from 7,738 feet to 1,910 feet, a decrease of 5,828 feet in
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at RJBB Kansai International Airport on runway 24R, achieving a high score of 99.0%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 231.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach and landing performance were satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 137 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 460 meters was also within the expected parameters, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly higher than the desired speed, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 240°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 16 knots, which was effectively utilized by the aircraft to maintain a stable approach path. The touchdown rate of -197 feet per minute (fpm) was also within the acceptable range, indicating a controlled and smooth touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,513 meters was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the aircraft was well-handled and that the pilots made effective use of the available runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled and that the pilots maintained a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 777-300 at RJBB Kansai International Airport was a successful and well-executed operation, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 99.0% and demonstrating excellent approach and landing performance.
