Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 0.8°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,864 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,864 m of the 2,560 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 901 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight was operated on a Boeing 777-300 aircraft. The pre-flight preparations began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of approximately 2 nautical miles.
Upon departure from MMMX Benito Juárez International Airport, the aircraft took to the skies from runway 05R, utilizing 3,851 meters of runway length, which was 112% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 173 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius.
The en-route climb phase of the flight commenced approximately 4 miles northwest of Santa Maria Chimalhuacan in the state of Mexico, Mexico. The aircraft successfully climbed from an initial altitude of 8,326 feet above sea level to an eventual cruising altitude of 34,941 feet, demonstrating an impressive gain of 26,615 feet in just 17 minutes. This climb phase also covered approximately 113 nautical miles.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered into a level cruise phase, where it leveled off approximately 2 miles northwest of Platon Sanchez in the state of Veracruz-Llave, Mexico. This cruise phase lasted for 40 minutes and covered an impressive 324 nautical miles.
However, the aircraft would not remain in the cruise phase for long. It began another climb phase, this time from approximately Latitude: 25.8770219 Longitude: -95.2474805, where it successfully climbed from 34,991 feet to 36,595 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a further 28 nautical miles.
The aircraft then re-entered a level cruise phase, lasting for a substantial 152 minutes, during which it covered a remarkable 1,315 nautical miles. This phase ended when the aircraft started its descent phase from approximately Latitude: 26.2235865 Longitude: -94.8617868.
The en-route descent phase was initiated when the aircraft started descending from its cruising altitude of 36,052 feet above sea level to a final destination of 1,818 feet above sea level. This descent phase took 18 minutes to complete, covering approximately 57 nautical miles.
Upon approaching its destination, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 22L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport from the southwest, with a heading of 31.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,797 feet above ground level, approximately 1 nautical mile from the runway.
The aircraft successfully landed on runway 22L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport, with a runway length of 2,560 meters. However, the threshold height at 120 feet above ground level was significantly higher than the target height, a concern that highlights the importance of precise navigation.
The aircraft's touchdown speed was recorded at a good 152 knots, while the touchdown point was 454 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed at 138 knots was still considered satisfactory, although the aircraft experienced a hard touchdown rate of -468 feet per minute. Perhaps more concerning was the fact that the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned from the centerline, which may have contributed to the landing difficulties.
In terms of the total landing distance, it was approximately 1,752 meters, equating to 68% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was also found to be misaligned from the centerline, further underscoring the need for precise control during landing operations.
Following the successful landing, the aircraft then taxiied to the parking area, covering a short distance of 1 nautical mile in approximately 8 minutes.
Throughout the flight, the aircraft utilized a substantial amount of fuel, estimated to be 37,270 kilograms. The total flight distance covered by the aircraft was 1,854 nautical miles, taking a total of 267 minutes to complete
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft completed a final approach to runway 22L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport from the southwest direction, heading 31.0° at 1 nautical mile altitude and 1,797 feet above ground level. During the landing process, the aircraft scored 67.7%, which indicates that the landing was partially successful but had some areas of improvement.
The approach was successful in terms of threshold speed, with the aircraft touching down at 152 knots. However, the threshold height was excessively over target, indicating that the aircraft may have been a bit higher than desired when it touched down. The touchdown point was 454 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which means that the aircraft overshot the desired landing spot.
The touchdown speed was good, at 138 knots, and the touchdown speed was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was hard, at -468 feet per minute, which is higher than the desired rate. A hard touchdown rate can put excessive load on the aircraft's landing gear and may indicate that the pilots may have been trying to flare the aircraft too aggressively.
The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned, with the aircraft being 16.4 meters away from the centerline. This is a significant issue, as it can cause the aircraft to drift off course during the rollout process. The total landing distance was 1,752 meters, which is 68% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, which may indicate that the aircraft did not decelerate quickly enough after touchdown.
The local weather conditions during the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from the 30° direction. The crosswind was negligible, and the tailwind was 5 knots, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate and the long landing distance. However, it is worth noting that the aircraft's performance in these conditions was not optimal, and there is room for improvement in terms of pilot technique and aircraft setting.
