Slow down before tight turns
The one change that would have gained the most on this flight, and the guide passage for it.
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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,710 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 516 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 10 at SBGL Rio Galeão - Tom Jobim International Airport in 10 minutes, covering 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 10, the aircraft used 1,749 m of runway, representing 44 % of the available length, and lifted off at 183 kt. Local conditions were 24 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 129°, giving a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.
The first en-route climb began 2 mi north-east of SBGL, climbing from 1,014 ft asl to 30,990 ft asl - an increase of 29,976 ft - in 19 minutes while covering 134 nm.
A cruise segment started 4 mi east of Itaperuna and lasted 67 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 580 nm at level altitude.
The second climb segment commenced 57 mi east of SNNI Praia do Forte Airport, climbing from 31,230 ft asl to 32,936 ft asl - a gain of 1,706 ft - in 2 minutes over 14 nm.
A further cruise leg began 54 mi south-east of Conde, lasting 175 minutes and covering 1,423 nm.
The third climb started at latitude 8.9677468, longitude -26.6565968, rising from 33,001 ft asl to 34,994 ft asl - an increase of 1,992 ft - in 3 minutes while traversing 29 nm.
Subsequent cruise commenced at latitude 9.4243756, longitude -26.4459236, lasting 249 minutes and encompassing 2,089 nm.
The fourth climb began 2 mi south-west of Salorino (Extremadura, Spain), climbing from 35,581 ft asl to 36,999 ft asl - a gain of 1,418 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 13 nm.
A cruise segment from 4 mi south-west of Alcantara (Extremadura, Spain) lasted 70 minutes and spanned 546 nm.
Descent commenced overhead Le Louroux Beconnais (Pays de la Loire, France), descending from 36,989 ft asl to 1,597 ft asl - a loss of 35,392 ft - in 31 minutes and covering 168 nm.
The final approach to runway 09L at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was flown from the west, on a heading of 85.0° at 4 nm and 1,241 ft agl.
Landing on runway 09L, which is 2,700 m long, was achieved with a threshold speed of 146 kt. Touchdown occurred 107 m beyond the touchdown zone at 141 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 146 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather reported 17 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 15°, giving a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.
The runway rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,301 m, representing 48 % of the runway, and alignment during rollout was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 4 minutes, traveling 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 5,006 nm, required 632 minutes, and consumed 87,811 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 performed a final approach to runway 09L at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport from the west, on a heading of 85.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,241 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was 17 °C with wind 4 kt from 15 °, a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt head-wind component.
During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 146 kt.
Touchdown occurred 107 m beyond the touchdown zone; the touchdown speed was 141 kt, noted as a little fast, and the touchdown rate was smooth at minus 146 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 1,301 m, representing 48 % of the 2,700 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
To refine the already high 98.6 % score, a slight reduction in touchdown speed and a touchdown point closer to the designated zone would further optimise performance.
