Flight Score
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 89 m past the target, landing at 546 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 1,681 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,681 m of the 3,200 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 546 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-200ER taxied from the parking area to runway 23 at HTDA Julius Nyerere International Airport in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 23, the aircraft used 2,133 m of runway (68 % of the available length) and lifted off at 170 kt; ambient temperature was 29 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 120°, a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind.
The first en-route climb began 1 mile south-west of HTDA, climbing from 1,172 ft asl to 34,878 ft asl-a gain of 33,706 ft-in 32 minutes while covering 232 nm.
Level cruise commenced 30 nm south-west of R094 East Africa Static Carrier - Prince of Wales and continued for 231 minutes, during which 1,890 nm were flown.
A subsequent climb segment started at latitude 14.9641594, longitude 65.8080744, ascending from 35,247 ft asl to 36,929 ft asl (gain of 1,682 ft) in 3 minutes and covering 27 nm.
The next cruise phase began at latitude 15.2143406, longitude 66.2200495 and lasted 174 minutes, traversing 1,429 nm.
A third climb was initiated 7 nm south-west of Pirojpur, Bangladesh, rising from 37,000 ft asl to 38,989 ft asl (increase of 1,989 ft) in 3 minutes over a distance of 28 nm.
Following that, level cruise started 6 nm north-east of VGNA Nalchiti Airport and persisted for 260 minutes, covering 2,169 nm.
Descent began 35 nm north-east of RKPD Jeongseok Airport, Jeju Island, with the aircraft descending from 38,996 ft asl to 1,324 ft asl-a loss of 37,672 ft-in 22 minutes while traveling 126 nm.
The final approach to runway 36L at RKPK Gimhae International Airport involved a descent from 1,338 ft agl to 60 ft agl in 105 seconds, meeting the stabilization criteria.
Landing on runway 36L was executed with a threshold speed of 132 kt; touchdown occurred 129 m beyond the touchdown zone at 126 kt, with a smooth vertical speed of minus 117 fpm and perfect runway-centerline alignment. Local conditions were 24 °C, wind 1 kt from 19°, no cross-wind and a 1 kt head-wind. The total landing roll measured 1,600 m (50 % of the runway).
Runway rollout alignment was recorded as perfect, completing the landing phase without deviation.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 5,908 nm, required 732 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 90,877 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-200ER executed a stabilised approach at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The final approach to runway 36L at RKPK Gimhae International Airport descended from 1,338 ft agl to 60 ft agl in 105 seconds and earned full marks on the stabilisation gates.
At the threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and a threshold speed of 132 kt. The flare transitioned smoothly, and the aircraft crossed the runway threshold with a touchdown point 129 m beyond the touchdown zone.
Touchdown occurred at a speed of 126 kt, described as good, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 117 fpm and very good runway-touchdown alignment.
The rollout covered 1,600 m, representing 50 % of the 3,200 m runway, and runway-rollout alignment was perfect.
With a score of 99.4 % the landing was excellent; a minor refinement would be to aim for a touchdown point closer to the start of the touchdown zone while preserving the current speed and alignment performance.
