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.

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 1,638 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,638 m of the 3,006 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 451 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 13L at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP). The takeoff distance was 1,325 meters, which accounted for 36% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 189 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 40°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the town of Vecses in Pest megye, Hungary. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,542 feet above sea level to 7,672 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,130 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired cruising altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles north of Inarcs in Pest megye, Hungary. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 7,640 feet above sea level to 3,908 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,731 feet in 4 minutes, covering a distance of 19 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and began a short cruise period, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles, as it flew over the town of Budakeszi in Pest megye, Hungary.
The aircraft then began another descent, this time from an altitude of 3,524 feet above sea level to 1,728 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,795 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 13R at LHBP was made from the northwest, heading 132.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level.
The landing was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 137 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, at 454 meters, and the touchdown speed was 134 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -325 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 39°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,562 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 50 nautical miles, taking 32 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 4,427 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (LHBP) on runway 13R. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 132.0° at an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 137 knots, indicating a well-executed approach.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown speed of 134 knots and a firm touchdown rate of -325 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained a steady and controlled approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 13°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from 39°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.
The total landing distance of 1,562 meters was within the expected range, accounting for approximately 52% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent, with a good balance between speed and distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, which may be attributed to a minor deviation in the pilot's control inputs during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a high score of 97.0%. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the execution of the approach and landing, with a good balance between speed, distance, and control. The slight deviation in the rollout alignment was a minor issue, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
