Monitor your taxi speed
See Arrival 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.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,065 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 618 m past the threshold — beyond 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 journey began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles (nm). The aircraft then departed from runway 25R at Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX).
During takeoff, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 193 knots (kt) and covered a distance of 1,839 meters, which was 54% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 24°C, with a wind speed of 2 kt at 89°.
After takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started approximately 1 mile north-west of El Segundo, California. The climb phase involved an increase in altitude from 1,331 feet above sea level (asl) to 31,057 ft asl, covering a distance of 125 nm in 19 minutes. This was followed by a level cruise phase, which lasted for 63 minutes and covered a distance of 561 nm.
The aircraft then entered another climb phase, which started approximately 17 miles south-west of Hunt Field Lander (KLND) in Wyoming. This climb phase involved an increase in altitude from 31,250 ft asl to 33,192 ft asl, covering a distance of 31 nm in 3 minutes. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 219 minutes and covered a distance of 1,857 nm.
The flight continued with multiple enroute climb and level cruise phases, with the aircraft passing through various geographical locations, including Fort Irwin, California; Lander, Wyoming; Iqaluit, Nunavut, Canada; Tollose, Region Sjaelland, Denmark; and Topolovgrad, Bulgaria. The aircraft also experienced multiple descent phases, with the most significant descent occurring from 36,906 ft asl to 27,256 ft asl, covering a distance of 104 nm in 13 minutes.
The final approach to runway 17L at İstanbul Airport (LTFM) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 180.0° at 4 nm and 1,309 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was successful, with the touchdown point being 204 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 128 kt, and the touchdown rate was -158 feet per minute (fpm), which was considered good.
The total landing distance was 1,432 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm.
The total flight distance was 6,066 nm, and the flight duration was 774 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 104,315 kg of fuel during the journey.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at LTFM İstanbul Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching runway 17L from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,309 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot's final approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing. The threshold speed of 137 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach. The touchdown point was 204 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation but still within the acceptable limits.
The touchdown speed of 128 knots was also good, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's descent and speed during the final stages of the approach. The touchdown rate of -158 feet per minute (fpm) was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from 310°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both minimal, at 3 knots each, which suggests that the pilot had to contend with relatively little wind resistance during the approach.
The total landing distance of 1,432 meters was 35% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's descent and speed during the final stages of the approach, resulting in a relatively short landing distance.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled rollout after touchdown. Overall, the landing was characterized by a high level of proficiency and precision, with the pilot successfully managing the aircraft's speed, descent, and alignment during the approach and landing.
