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 1,609 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,609 m of the 3,352 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 437 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 to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 08R at Vancouver International Airport (CYVR). The takeoff distance was 1,250 meters, which is 38% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 171 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 4 knots at 99°. The crosswind was negligible, but there was a headwind of 4 knots. The enroute climb started shortly after takeoff, with the aircraft ascending from 1,046 feet above sea level to 32,956 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,910 feet in 15 minutes and covering a distance of 92 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 13 miles northeast of Birken, British Columbia, Canada, and lasted for 133 minutes, covering a distance of 1,046 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 33,335 feet above sea level to 35,345 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,010 feet in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 27 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 90 miles southwest of Baker Lake Airport (CYBK) in Nunavut, Canada, and lasted for 233 minutes, covering a distance of 1,858 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 35,140 feet above sea level to 36,938 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,798 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began again 39 miles northwest of Grímsey Airport (BIGR) in Iceland and lasted for 130 minutes, covering a distance of 1,014 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 75 miles northwest of De Koog in the Netherlands, with the aircraft descending from 36,988 feet above sea level to 1,268 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,719 feet in 28 minutes and covering a distance of 115 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 267.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,265 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 438 meters and a touchdown speed of 145 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -269 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 3 knots at 300°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 1,530 meters, which is 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 4,174 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 556 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 68,447 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, achieving a score of 99.5%. The final approach to runway 27 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 267.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 147 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 438 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown.
However, the touchdown speed of 145 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate of -269 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 300°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing phase. The total landing distance of 1,530 meters was 46% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.
The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a short distance.
