Flight Score
Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 187 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 165 kt against a target of 187 kt, running 22 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 187 kt.
Arrival
Use small rudder inputs against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during rollout.
What happened: During the rollout the aircraft drifted 11 m off the centreline.
Watch for: Runway centreline marks: hold the aircraft tracking straight down the centreline through rollout
See Arrival Rollout
A crosswind landing is a geometry problem. The air mass you're flying in is moving sideways across the runway, and you need your ground track down the centreline with your wheels aligned to it at the moment of contact. There are two techniques that will help, the crab and the sideslip.

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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,624 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,624 m of the 3,448 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 460 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-200ER taxied from the parking area to runway 14 at GBYD Banjul International Airport in a period of 14 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 14, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 164 kt and became airborne after traveling 1,800 m, which represented 50 % of the runway length; ambient conditions were 28 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 259°, a 5 kt crosswind component and a 4 kt tailwind.
The initial climb commenced overhead GBYD, rising from 1,014 ft asl to 36,792 ft asl - a gain of 35,778 ft - in 22 minutes while traversing 147 nm.
A short cruise segment began 27 miles west of Mekhe (Region de Thies, Senegal) and lasted 7 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 54 nm.
A second climb started over Saint-Louis, Senegal, increasing altitude from 36,997 ft asl to 38,993 ft asl - a gain of 1,996 ft - in 3 minutes and spanning 26 nm.
The following cruise phase originated 23 miles north-east of GOSS Saint Louis Airport and continued for 90 minutes, covering 753 nm.
A third climb was initiated 57 miles south-east of Tan-Tan, Morocco, raising the aircraft from 38,999 ft asl to 39,971 ft asl - an increase of 972 ft - in 2 minutes over a distance of 13 nm.
Subsequent cruise began 50 miles south-east of Tan-Tan and persisted for 170 minutes, during which 1,498 nm were flown.
The first descent segment started overhead Bouvignies, France, descending from 40,005 ft asl to 10,010 ft asl - a loss of 29,995 ft - in 15 minutes while covering 101 nm.
A brief cruise followed 1 mile south-west of Maasdijk, the Netherlands, lasting 2 minutes and encompassing 7 nm.
The second descent began over Delft, the Netherlands, dropping from 10,007 ft asl to 4,992 ft asl - a decrease of 5,015 ft - in 5 minutes across 21 nm.
Another short cruise was flown 1 mile north-east of Woerdense Verlaat, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
The third descent started 1 mile south-east of Baambrugge, the Netherlands, descending from 5,005 ft asl to 1,259 ft asl - a loss of 3,746 ft - in 5 minutes over 16 nm.
For the final approach to runway 27 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, the aircraft approached from the east on a heading of 267.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,261 ft agl.
Landing on runway 27 was executed with a runway length of 3,448 m; the threshold height of 61 ft agl was above target and the threshold speed of 135 kt was slightly above target. Touchdown occurred 458 m down the runway at a speed of 133 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 289 fpm and very good alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 18 °C, wind 13 kt from 300°, a 7 kt crosswind component and an 11 kt headwind component.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,545 m, representing 45 % of the runway, and the aircraft’s centreline alignment was offset by 10.7 m.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 5 minutes, traveling less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 2,652 nm, required 339 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 32,256 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-200ER on final approach to runway 27 at EHAM was aligned on a heading of 267.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,261 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits. Local weather was 18 °C with wind 13 kt from 300 °, giving a 7 kt cross-wind component and an 11 kt head-wind component.
At threshold the aircraft was 61 ft agl, which was above the target height, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 135 kt. The flare proceeded from this condition into the touchdown phase.
Touchdown occurred 458 m down the runway, with a speed of 133 kt that was a little fast and a vertical rate of minus 289 fpm, rated as fair. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The total landing distance was 1,545 m, representing 45 % of the 3,448 m runway, and rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.7 m from the centreline.
To tighten the landing envelope, aim to achieve the target threshold height and speed by refining the final-approach descent profile, and maintain precise centreline tracking during rollout to reduce the 10.7 m deviation.
