Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

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 3,621 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 354 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A Boeing 777F departed from Leipzig/Halle Airport, EDDP, on runway 26L, where it achieved a takeoff distance of 2,004 meters, utilizing 56% of the available runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 187 knots, with a local temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and a wind of 2 knots from 350 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind component was zero.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed a distance of 118 nautical miles in 17 minutes, reaching an altitude of 29,007 feet above sea level. The enroute level cruise phase commenced over Malsovice, Czech Republic, and lasted for 85 minutes, covering 815 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent a series of climbs and level cruises, with notable increases in altitude and decreases in time, as it traversed the globe. Notably, the climb from 28,997 feet to 30,715 feet in 2 minutes, covering 14 nautical miles, was particularly steep. The final level cruise phase started over Panjab, Afghanistan, and lasted for 181 minutes, covering 1,732 nautical miles.
As the aircraft began its descent into Hong Kong International Airport, VHHH, it traversed a distance of 64 nautical miles in 8 minutes, decreasing from 34,993 feet to 12,998 feet above sea level. The final approach to runway 07C was from the southwest, with a heading of 71.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,297 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway, with a touchdown point 66 meters beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 140 knots. The total landing distance was 1,514 meters, utilizing 44% of the available runway. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, where it was secured. The total flight distance was 5,619 nautical miles, covering a distance of 635 minutes, and utilizing 88,828 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777F touched down on runway 07C at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the crew to maintain a stable approach profile. The threshold speed was also well-managed, with the aircraft reaching 144 kt at the optimal moment, indicating a high degree of control and precision. The touchdown point was 66 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, although not ideal, was still within a reasonable distance.
The touchdown speed of 140 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -208 fpm was fair, suggesting a slight loss of control during the final stages of the landing. However, the crew's ability to maintain a stable approach and touchdown speed helped to mitigate this issue. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.4 m from the centreline, which may have contributed to the slightly higher touchdown rate.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by a slight misalignment from the centreline, with the aircraft deviating by 8.1 m. Despite this, the total landing distance of 1,514 m was 44% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 24 °C and a headwind of 7 kt, may have contributed to the slightly longer landing distance. Overall, the landing was scored 97.1%, reflecting the crew's high level of skill and control during the approach and touchdown phases.
