Slow down before tight turns
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,678 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,678 m of the 3,183 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 560 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300 departed from London Heathrow Airport, taxiing from the parking area to the runway 27R took 10 minutes and covered 5 nautical miles. At 18 °C with a wind of 4 kt at 240 °, the aircraft began its departure roll, lifting off the ground at a speed of 186 kt after a takeoff distance of 1,739 meters, which was 48% of the available runway length.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it passed over several notable landmarks, including Harmondsworth in Greater London, England, where it began its enroute climb from 1,040 feet above sea level to 5,956 feet. This initial climb phase was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude over Weybridge in Surrey, England, and later over Dentergem in Flanders, Belgium. The aircraft then continued its journey, climbing to higher altitudes over Aylesford in Kent, England, and later over the Mediterranean Sea, before beginning its descent into Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The final approach to runway 32 was made from the south east, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 142 kt and a distance of 1,601 meters from the threshold, which was 50% of the available runway length.
The total flight distance of 4,611 nautical miles was completed in 573 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 75,093 kilograms of fuel. The taxiing time from the runway to the parking area took 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The landing was characterized by a smooth touchdown rate of -119 fpm and perfect runway touchdown alignment, with the runway rollout alignment also being very good.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 32 at VGHS Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport with a smooth touchdown rate of -119 fpm, indicating a well-executed landing. The aircraft's speed at touchdown was slightly above the desired threshold speed, coming in at 142 kt, but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown point was 147 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, did not compromise the overall safety of the landing.
The approach quality was excellent, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading of 324.0° as it descended from 1,286 ft agl to touch down on the 3,183 m runway. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed of 146 kt was met, demonstrating a high level of control and precision during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The rollout phase was characterized by excellent alignment, with the aircraft staying centered on the runway. The total landing distance of 1,601 m, which accounted for 50% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was deemed a success, with a score of 97.6% reflecting the high level of proficiency displayed by the crew.
