Improve the taxi
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,705 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,705 m of the 2,692 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 449 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 at Roland Garros Airport (FMEE), a process that took approximately 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 1,829 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 190 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 34 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots at a direction of 70 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 9 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead the town of Sainte-Marie in Reunion, Réunion. The climb took place from an altitude of 1,057 feet above sea level to 28,965 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,908 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 110 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase started at a latitude of -19.1617243 and a longitude of 54.8587087, lasting for 2 minutes and covering 17 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 29,792 feet above sea level to 31,103 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,311 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 17 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted for 64 minutes, covering a distance of 1,402 nautical miles.
The flight continued with multiple enroute climb and level cruise phases, with the aircraft passing over various locations, including Jawhar in Somalia, Marsa Alam in Egypt, and Poggiorsini in Italy. The final enroute climb phase took place from 33,348 feet above sea level to 34,590 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,242 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 33 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted for 89 minutes, covering a distance of 1,330 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 1 mile northwest of Biarne in France. The descent took place from 35,625 feet above sea level to 7,278 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,347 feet, in 23 minutes and covering 132 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27R at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 266.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,319 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 27R, which had a length of 2,692 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 151 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 449 meters, and the touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -264 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at a direction of 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,629 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The aircraft then began its taxiing process, taking 18 minutes to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles to reach the parking area.
The total flight distance was 5,109 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 333 minutes.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport, showcasing a high level of precision and control. The final approach to runway 27R was executed from the east, with the aircraft heading 266.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,319 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was marked by a score of 99.5%, indicating an exceptionally smooth and controlled descent.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 144 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 449 meters was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and altitude during the final stages of the approach. However, the touchdown rate of -264 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have made some adjustments to achieve a smoother touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 210°. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 3 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the approach and landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a steady and controlled course throughout the approach.
The total landing distance of 1,629 meters was 61% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot had made effective use of the runway and had managed the aircraft's speed and altitude to achieve a smooth and controlled landing. Finally, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase and had brought it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
