B747-400 landing speeds?

1

Does anyone know the recommended landing speeds for Boeing 747-400s with flaps 30, 25, 20 etc. and load at 25, 50, 75% etc.? I currently land at around 200kts and I think I’m going a bit too fast. Help appreciated.

I usually land smooth enough with 135kts and flaps in 30

135 kts is kinda slow for a 747

Not good.
Flying with heavy weight lets the Approach and Tower controllers quit their jobs.

You shouldnt be landing a 747 at 170 or 190 knots. Remeber bigger planes like the 747 have more interia so there less likley to react if you conduct a go around. So the landing speed should be around 135-140 ( plus 5 more knots)
