MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
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 68 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 68 ft, 23 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,086 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,086 m of the 4,023 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 651 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 9 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 03 at Perth International Airport (YPPH). The takeoff distance was 1,426 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 172 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 25°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 300°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead South Guildford, where the aircraft ascended from 1,087 feet above sea level to 31,446 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,359 feet in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 76 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began overhead Dandaragan and lasted for 94 minutes, covering a distance of 789 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent another enroute climb, this time from 32,176 feet above sea level to 33,949 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,773 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed at a new location, lasting for 163 minutes and covering a distance of 1,376 nautical miles.
The aircraft then underwent another enroute climb, this time from 33,781 feet above sea level to 35,127 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,347 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed once again, lasting for 62 minutes and covering a distance of 515 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 22 miles south of Klaeng Airfield in Thailand. The descent from 35,802 feet above sea level to 1,317 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,485 feet in 22 minutes, covered a distance of 88 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 02L at Suvarnabhumi Airport was made from the south, heading 14.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,300 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 02L was successful, with a touchdown point 236 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was good, while the touchdown rate was fair at -264 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 34°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 56°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the headwind was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 2,006 meters, which accounted for 50% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,882 nautical miles, taking a total of 375 minutes, and the aircraft used 50,343 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at Suvarnabhumi Airport, achieving a score of 93.2%. The final approach to runway 02L was initiated from the south, with a heading of 14.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,300 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 147 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing speed. However, the touchdown speed of 144 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -264 fpm was fair. The touchdown point was 236 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the landing roll. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 34°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 56°. The crosswind was minimal at 1 kt, and the headwind was 2 kt, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 2,006 meters was 50% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
