Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,870 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,870 m of the 2,795 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 742 m past the threshold — beyond 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 36 at ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola, in Norway. The takeoff distance was 1,509 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 171 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 7°C, a wind speed of 7 knots at 339°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.
After takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of ENZV Stavanger Airport, Sola. The climb took 7 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,032 feet above sea level to 16,616 feet above sea level, an increase of 15,584 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 15 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 3 miles east of Undeim, Norway, and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, starting 3 miles east of Egersund, Norway. This climb took 3 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 17,401 feet above sea level to 23,545 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,144 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 28 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 5 miles southwest of Vestbygd, Norway, and lasting 16 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, starting 11 miles south of Hvide Sande, Denmark. This climb took 7 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 23,504 feet above sea level to 34,946 feet above sea level, an increase of 11,442 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 64 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 1 mile north of Niebuell, Germany, and lasting 24 minutes, covering a distance of 199 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting overhead Warburg, Germany. The descent took 16 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 35,457 feet above sea level to 5,008 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,449 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 107 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting overhead Sankt Johann, Germany, and lasting 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Bubenheim, Germany. The descent took 4 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 5,011 feet above sea level to 1,606 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,405 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 13 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 07L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport, flying from the southwest at a heading of 69.0° and at an altitude of 1,253 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 2°C, a wind speed of 4 knots at 30°, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The aircraft landed on runway 07L at EDDF Frankfurt Airport, which has a length of 2,795 meters. The touchdown point was 318 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was good. The touchdown
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at Frankfurt Airport (EDDF) on runway 07L, achieving a high score of 95.2%. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 69.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,253 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was recorded at 141 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was located 318 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal position but still within a safe margin. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
However, the touchdown rate of -212 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or oscillation upon touchdown. This could be attributed to various factors, including the aircraft's weight, the runway's surface, or the pilot's technique.
Despite the slightly higher touchdown rate, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 2°C and a gentle headwind of 3 knots, were favorable for the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,781 meters was 64% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft maintained a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, considering the weather conditions and the aircraft's characteristics. However, the slightly higher touchdown rate and the touchdown point being beyond the designated zone are areas for improvement.
