MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Rotate as soon as the aircraft reaches 179 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You rotated late, lifting off at 218 kt against a 179 kt target, and the climb speed carried fast at 252 kt. A late rotation like this usually leaves the climb speed running fast behind it.
Watch for: Watch airspeed against the 179 kt rotation target.
Arrival
Add power on approach to bring the speed up to 153 kt before the stabilisation gate, not after it.
What happened: The approach was already slow at the stabilisation gate, and a slow gate like that usually carries through to a slow threshold crossing - here 144 kt against the 153 kt target.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 153 kt on approach, carrying through to 153 kt at the threshold.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 8 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 153 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 14 kt SLOW on the reference speed of 153 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,612 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,612 m of the 3,593 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 717 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Shanghai Pudong International Airport, the Boeing 777-300 initiated its taxiing sequence from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. Upon reaching runway 34L, the aircraft began its departure roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 218 knots. The takeoff distance of 2,540 meters accounted for 67% of the runway length, with a local wind of 6 knots at 340 degrees contributing to a 6-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed a distance of 134 nautical miles in 21 minutes, ascending from 1,020 feet to 34,246 feet above sea level. The enroute climb phase was punctuated by several level cruise segments, with the longest lasting 477 minutes and covering 3,554 nautical miles. The aircraft's fuel consumption during this period was substantial, with a total of 82,890 kilograms used throughout the flight. The descent phase began 25 miles southwest of the Gulf of Oman, with the aircraft descending from 36,297 feet to 3,189 feet above sea level in 25 minutes.
Upon approaching Dubai International Airport, the Boeing 777-300 initiated its final approach to runway 12R, aligning its heading with the runway at 122.0 degrees. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 144 knots and a touchdown speed of 137 knots, resulting in a touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute. The aircraft touched down 308 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a runway touchdown position that was slightly misaligned from the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,539 meters accounted for 43% of the runway length, and the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, concluding its 3,895-nautical-mile journey.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 12R at OMDB Dubai International Airport, demonstrating a good threshold height and speed of 144 kt. The aircraft's approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 122.0° at 4 nm and 1,263 ft above ground level. The touchdown point was 308 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 137 kt, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -83 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 8.2 m, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off-centre by 8.0 m. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was good, with a total landing distance of 1,539 m, which accounted for 43% of the runway length. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 30 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing.
The landing score for this approach and touchdown was 94.4%, reflecting the aircraft's good performance in terms of speed, rate, and distance. While there were some minor deviations from the centreline, the overall landing was satisfactory, and the aircraft demonstrated a high level of control and precision during the approach and touchdown phases.
