Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 139 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 158 kt against a rotation target of 139 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 139 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 87 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 87 ft, 42 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,984 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 321 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 12 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 30R at Dubai International Airport (OMDB). The takeoff distance was 1,040 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 27 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 180 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead Dubai International Airport, where the aircraft ascended from 1,049 feet above sea level to 38,083 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,033 feet in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 115 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 46 miles northeast of Das Island Airport (OMAS) and lasted for 58 minutes, covering a distance of 402 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 7 miles north of Safwan Airport (OR1M), where it ascended from 38,099 feet above sea level to 40,037 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,938 feet in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 26 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 12 miles northeast of Ar Rumaylah Southwest Air Base (OR0U) and lasted for 274 minutes, covering a distance of 1,962 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent 3 miles northwest of Gaimersheim, Germany, where it descended from 40,213 feet above sea level to 1,487 feet above sea level, a decrease of 38,725 feet in 33 minutes and covering a distance of 132 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) was from the southwest, with a heading of 69.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,141 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 320 meters and a touchdown speed of 130 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -217 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots at 30 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, while the headwind was 6 knots. The total landing distance was 1,019 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 2,646 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 401 minutes. The aircraft used 38,395 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed on runway 07R at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) with a score of 99.8%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 69.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,141 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 129 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. However, the touchdown speed of 130 knots was slightly above the optimal range, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate.
The touchdown rate of -217 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating that the aircraft's descent was not as smooth as it could have been. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 30°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft's performance and the pilot's skills were sufficient to overcome them.
The total landing distance of 1,019 meters was 26% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. This is a testament to the aircraft's performance and the pilot's ability to manage the landing phase effectively. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's control and precision during the landing phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown rate to achieve an even smoother and more controlled landing.
