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.

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 1,550 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,550 m of the 2,524 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 453 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Boeing 777-300 began with a 10-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at LSGG Geneva Cointrin International Airport. The departure roll took place on runway 04, with a takeoff distance of 1,047 meters, covering 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 173 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 4°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 10°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 5 knots.
The enroute climb started over Le Grand-Saconnex in Geneva, Switzerland, climbing from 2,416 feet above sea level to 18,642 feet, covering 11 nautical miles in 5 minutes. The enroute level cruise began 1 mile west of Boege in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France, lasting 4 minutes and covering 28 nautical miles. The second enroute climb started over Saint-Felix in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France, climbing from 18,830 feet to 34,511 feet in 9 minutes, covering 73 nautical miles. The following enroute level cruise started 4 miles south of Lus-la-Croix-Haute in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France, lasting 28 minutes and covering 139 nautical miles.
The enroute descent began 41 miles east of Cadaques in Catalunya, Spain, descending from 35,135 feet to 1,815 feet in 30 minutes, covering 124 nautical miles. The landing took place on runway 02 at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, with a runway length of 2,524 meters. The height at the threshold was 20 feet above ground level, with a speed of 142 knots. The touchdown occurred 452 meters from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 138 knots and a vertical speed indicator reading of -161 feet per minute. The local weather at the time of landing was 15°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 280°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,462 meters, covering 58% of the runway.
After landing, the taxi from the runway to the parking area took 9 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 385 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 84 minutes and fuel consumption of 9,483 kilograms.
First of all, congratulations on achieving an outstanding aircraft landing score of 99.5%! This high score is a testament to the skill and precision exhibited throughout the various phases of the landing process. Let's delve deeper into each phase to understand the factors that contributed to this exceptional performance.
During the Approach Phase, it is commendable that the glideslope alignment was excellent. This indicates that the descent of the aircraft was well-managed, leading to a smooth and controlled approach towards the runway. Maintaining proper glideslope alignment is critical for ensuring a safe and efficient landing.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is impressive to note that the threshold height was good and the landing flare was executed perfectly. The threshold height refers to the point at which the aircraft crosses the beginning of the runway, and achieving a good threshold height indicates a precise touchdown point. Additionally, executing a perfect landing flare is crucial for achieving a gentle touchdown and minimizing any potential impact forces on the landing gear.
In the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was good, and the speed was on target. A controlled and consistent touchdown rate is essential for a smooth landing, while maintaining the correct speed helps in ensuring a safe and stable touchdown. Furthermore, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone is a reflection of the pilot's ability to accurately place the aircraft within the designated landing area.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, maintaining runway alignment is vital for ensuring the aircraft remains centered on the runway during the rollout. The fact that the runway alignment was within 4.0 meters from the centerline demonstrates precision and attentiveness during this phase of the landing process.
Overall, your performance in each phase of the aircraft landing process was exemplary, resulting in a high score of 99.5%. Your attention to detail, precise execution, and overall competency in handling the aircraft are truly commendable. Keep up the great work and continue striving for excellence in all your future landings!
