Landing A B777 at QTR

10 Hard landings on B777 fleet in 30 days amazing how it can back fire when our Great CPtrainings is screwing the all company seniority by transfering new recruits with basicaly no previous wide body experience directly on B777, same for the upgrade policy, while Fo and CPT from the A320F, A330 are watching the game with more than 3 years in the sand pit doing all the dirty job.
the reason given is very funny as well ,and up to the intelectual level of this dude pure master piece "most landings were in hot and windy day, heavy weight" .

Part A amendment
New approach ban only for the B777 drivers so next time you come to land Doha Rwy 34/16, just start dumping fuel to reduce weight and hold till the the temp cools down and the wind is calm, fully configured at 5000ft.

It looks like the last month weather conditions were only affecting B777 every time A320F or A330, A346 lands it is OTBD SA R34/16 00000kt cavok 15/00 Q1013.

So keep up the good job in the meantime our Training Mng is counting the number of instabilized approach while costing to the company millions of $ in fuel by asking to fully configure by 1500ft



Lucky that QR flies to my home town with an A346

Fly high and fast
