Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.5 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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.

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 3,450 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 422 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 14 at VTSG Krabi Airport, a Boeing 737-700 aircraft taking to the skies. The takeoff distance was 1,192 meters, which is 40% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 152 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 30 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it passed overhead Nuea Khlong in Changwat Krabi, Thailand. The climb was a steep one, with the aircraft rising from 1,108 feet above sea level to 38,931 feet in just 37 minutes, covering a distance of 259 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a long cruise phase, flying for 285 minutes and covering 2,237 nautical miles.
The cruise phase was followed by a descent, which began 18 miles north of YDWU Dalwallinu Airport Wongan Hills in Western Australia. The aircraft descended from 38,977 feet to 3,022 feet in just 21 minutes, covering a distance of 138 nautical miles. The descent was a short one, and the aircraft quickly leveled off again, this time flying over Mount Nasura in Western Australia. However, this level cruise phase was brief, lasting only 2 minutes and covering a distance of just 5 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its final descent, this time from 3,019 feet to 1,333 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The descent was over Harrisdale in Western Australia, and the aircraft was now preparing for its final approach to runway 03 at YPPH Perth International Airport.
The final approach was made from the south, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 14.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 6 knots at 80 degrees.
The aircraft landed on runway 03 at YPPH Perth International Airport, touching down at a speed of 124 knots and a distance of 423 meters. The touchdown rate was good, at -173 feet per minute, but the touchdown speed was a little fast. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, being 3.1 meters off the centerline. The total landing distance was 900 meters, which is 26% of the runway length.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 3 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 2,652 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 353 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 14,417 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at YPPH Perth International Airport, achieving a score of 99.0%. The final approach to runway 03 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 14.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 130 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 423 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 124 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -173 feet per minute was within acceptable limits.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 3.1 meters, which may require some adjustments to the aircraft's approach path. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 80°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots.
The total landing distance of 900 meters was 26% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
