Good days, that is Chile. Now we do them in Texas. In any case, the 777 is pretty stable (and the 787 more so) if you, as the poster said, keep it simple. Avoid the sideslip, maintain the crab until 50 feet RA and then use the rudder but BE CAREFUL for sudden wing direction changes! And for the love of God, don't float!
